Air cargo storage shed

[old kodger]

Does anyone have any idea what a shipping container would cost ? I would like to put one on my property if I could get the proper permit...sooo much stuff, and not enough room.

A couple of questions: - where do you hail from, and are you talking about air freight containers or sea freight containers?

Here in N. California they used to run about $1800-$2400 for 20' units. Not sure about ther 40' units because I never priced them. I say used to because covid got everything all balled up. Shipping dropped off due to reduced demand and the Chinese stopped making new ones so prices went way up. I eventually settled on a single use 20' unit for $5,000, i.e., one that made only one trip from China before being sold to me. Paint is good, doors open easily, and all I needed to do was slap on a padlock. It will eventually become my new shop.You'll find better prices buying from individuals but then you'll have to figure out how to transport it. I chose the 20' unit because when I move I can simply call my local towing service and they can winch it onto their flatbed.
