I am legit looking for a container to make a home. If the feds win i hope these go up for auction.

Ps thx for the link

If these are used, you don't want them. Companies that build homes out of shipping containers use new containers because the used ones have way too many problems with them.

Weird aside, but there are even a couple of companies that you can lease to own new containers. Depending where you live, shipping is the biggest cost. I was surprised how relatively inexpensive containers were (rented one for storage on land)

They are cheapest close to coasts and ports. Los Angeles. Expensive In the middle of the continent.

Just buy the lumber and frame up something the same size... It will be much cheaper in the long run

No need. They were abandoned and the feds do not want to pay to remove them. Just go grab one or two.

This is my question. If you just head out there and start dragging them off, who is going to stop you?
