Default Containers.

last week I bought a 20 ft container from a company in Toronto Easy Access and I got a 20ft in excellent condition, it had been bout new and rented for a year. It was painted blue and the interior was very clean, I paid $2500 plus taxes.
I picked it up in Mtl, left Merrickville at 9:30am and was back home by 15:30.
This was amore expensive unit because it was new, an older model not as nice looking was going for about $2100.00. I have a 30 ft gooseneck and picked it up myself. The real killer is the shipping, they will charge you between $600 to $800 to bring one in from Mtl.
The 40 ft containers are cheaper than the 20 ft. The guy in Mtl was telling me that containers have dropped in price in the last month, before the same container I got would have sold for about $3000.00
I now have 3containers and I really like them, when you consider that building a wood shed the same size wil be as expensive apart from the time you take to build it and it is not as secure as a container.
