Default The secret is.......

....finding a contractor that has finished with a job site and would rather get rid of his used container cheap than pay to have it moved...... but that requires a lot of networking..... and means of moving it or have it moved cheaply and rapidly.

A twenty footer can be moved by Gervais towing with their tilt and load tow trucks.... a quote from a few years ago was $600 from Hawthorne depot to Hammond barn. So you can buy it for $2500 and pay to have it moved or they will sell youone and move it for you for $3200 using Gervais as the mover....!!!!! go figure.

We could get a better price per unit if we could pick it up in Montreal or Toronto...... but would need to fabricate a support system on our 5 ton barn float and then pay for diesel back and forth...... if we had 10 sea cans to move it might be worth our while but for one or two not a money saving proposition.

Still waiting for one to fall from the sky......gently !!!!!!
