Wouldn't a shipping container be aufull expensive? And what kind of access doors do shipping containers have? I am not looking to spend a lot of money. I would think that a shipping container would cost a fair amount just to deliver and with the cost of steel being so high I hate to think what I would have to pay for a retired container even if I gave them scrap price for what it weighs. Don't get me wrong I think that is not a bad idea other wise. Regards Robert

What about a shipping container? It'd have to be delivered, but it has no tires.
