They're cheap enough (as low as $200 or so), and the port is only 20
miles away. FOB only, though. You need to have a flatbed or hire one,
which adds to the expense. There is one unit right next door that might
conceivably become available. There is another problem, though, as
containers tend to receive undue attention from the vigilant eye of
code enforcement here, unlike some other enlightened areas of the
country, particularly if you attempt to build any kind of actual
structure out of them. In my case I would have to. Freight containers
are not really big enough for decent shop facilities.
