I doubt they weigh 34,000 lbs...

Yeah, too bad it's that far away. That could store and hide a huge amount of stuff.

Check out this link, maybe they can send you in the right direction for a good used container.
You mite even be able to find one from a cartage or local shipping company. I used to work in the shipping delivery business. Seems like every yard had empties just sitting wasting space. You mite have to do a little welding or sealing but could be worth it once you have everything in order for the city.... I have seen two or three cut up and re welded to make houses out of!

we'll see when I'm done.
GORGEOUS weather today... mid 70's full sun, gentle breeze... and none of my help showed up... arrgh. I got some slats cut for my shelf system in the carport, and I'll start laying pipe and sections of junk on the shelves... they are rated at 2000lbs each shelf... I doubt I'll get anywhere near that much stuff on them...

Those shelf systems sounds like the right stuff. How much do they cost? What brand are they?

no idea, Mine are 42" deep, by 10 foot tall, and the horizontals are the "teardrop" style of hooks...
I got em at a industrial salvage lot near my house... think home depot lumber rack... standard warehouse stuff.

Go to the shipping company by the ocean they have them and talk to storage places who have them . They can tell you were to get them. A guy down along the freeway rents his out but im in cali. If you go to storage auction at a dock I have seen them go for dirt cheap. But it in the ground!!!
