[QUOTE="undeg01, post: 3601505, member: 26476"] My property had a 40 footer on it when I bought the place. It is sitting flat on the ground and though I have not had any problems yet, I do see them coming on down the road. I park my tractor inside when I leave it there and with the excessive rain we’ve had, the container settles a little every so often. I notice the settling because the doors will scrape the ground more on occasion and i have to scrape the dirt back. Other than that, shipping containers are about the cheapest and most secure way to go. Mine has electricity, outlets and lights the length of the container. In the future, I plan to buy another 40 footer and pour two slabs a distance apart to set each on, then have my buddy who builds steel buildings connect them with rafters and a tin roof, leaving a breezeway between the two that I will fill with gravel for equipment storage.
