About Us


After years of Bakken oilfield experience, Arista Containers was founded because of a need to handle containers in the Bakken better. Shipping containers hundreds of miles to be cleaned, only to be shipped hundreds more to be filled is not practical, efficient, or environmentally friendly. By handling the containers at our facility in Williston ND, using our automated wash system, we are able to offer local drums and totes to be reused right here in the Bakken. Why ship empty containers anywhere else?

Tavish Vestal: President

Tavish is born and raised in Williston ND. After a career working in the family business providing support to Oilfield Companies, he saw that many companies were sending their containers out of the field to cleaning facilities long distances away. Cleaning the containers right in Williston would save time, money, and freight.
