Sea Containers...

Anyone have a line on any containers. I need a 40' one to store steel and toys in...

Where is the best place to buy locally?

Anyone?

No line on one, but we use them all the time for job site storage. You might check to see what contractors are shutting the doors and selling out. You might find one that you want that way.

Didn't you have this exact same thread like 2 years ago..

Try contacting Container Port , they occasionally sell those land/sea dry boxes real cheap.

Is your heart set on a sea container or would a tractor trailer work?

I know a guy who may have a few old trailers around that he could let go for cheap.

i say sea container cuz it has to look halfway decent, as i can see it from my back patio. I can paint a sea container to match my shop pretty well, a trailer just looks like a trailer, ya know.

Also, will be storing full sticks of tubing in this, and hoped for a sea container so that i can attach racks right to the thick steel walls, etc...
