Seeing a lot of sugarmakers using the metal box shipping containers as a building to house vacuum, tanks etc... Where are you buying them??? Thanks...

Usualy various people listing them for sale or rent on craiglist. Price goes up further you are from a port

We bought a 40 ft high cube(9 ft inside) from a company called Interport out of New Jersey. Price was $1800 for the container that was paid in advance. Freight was extra depending on your location. Was unsure about the pay in advance so looked them up in the better business bureau and found they have been doing business for at least 35 yrs. Also punched their address into google earth to find a large yard full of containers. They also have 20 ft as well. The high cube was the same price as the 8 ft inside height model.
Freight was arranged by Interport. Tranporter called to get my location and arranged delivery. It was delivered on a tiltbed that he could spot the container where ever you want.
