just searched for the average price of a container. They sell pretty cheap actually, like 1000€ - 2500€ depending on the condition.

- In the U.S. the cost of a 40 Ft shipping containers: 2-4kutopian
- these are 20', 40's are usually more than twice that, but yeah habitable legos ftw.kingsteven
- I can remember older relatives cursing the invention of containers because they cost so many jobs in the shipyardskingsteven
- they were also the end of bootlegging, instead of smaller wooden boxes, whole shipments locked up to the destination.kingsteven

These actually cost more to build than just custom fabricating a steel enclosure to looks like a shipping container. (cutting/modifying/retrofitting are expensive). The only reason you'd do this is if you needed to prep a unit and truck it out to the middle of nowhere because labour would be too expensive where you need to build. In which case you might as well just buy a portable. Also, they are like 7' tall inside the insulated ones.

Project we did end of last year. Cut up an old shipping container and posted it into this shop...
