The only thing better than a well-constructed, secure, and spacious shipping container shed is if it's well organized, so you’re not wasting time trying to find the lawn, gardening, or home improvement tools and equipment you need. With so many outside chores to get done before the sun goes down, you can’t afford to waste a minute of daylight.

Instead of investing a lot of money and time into building a standard wooden shed, purchasing a steel shipping container to serve as your garden shed is the ideal solution. Shipping containers make great garden sheds for many reasons, mainly because they are cost-effective, durable, safe, secure, and long-lasting.

Moving to a new place requires lots of time, effort, and planning, which can quickly become an overwhelming ordeal. Between all of the packing, wrapping, and boxes piling up around you – not to mention the pricey quotes you’ve received from five different moving companies – moving may very well seem like an insurmountable task.

Keeping your most prized possessions (or anything you may own) in a heavy-duty steel box seems like a good plan. Shipping containers are great for storage and offer protection from weather and wildlife. But unless they are outfitted with security measures, they aren’t 100 percent foolproof if a vandal or thief really wants to take a look at your stuff. That’s the case with any storage structure like a garage, barn, shed, or pole building.

You might be in a pinch and need a Conex container ASAP. But while it might be tempting to buy the first thing that looks like it will serve your intended purpose, taking the time to make sure you make the right decision will save you time, money, and hassle later. So, what do you need to consider when buying a Conex container? In this blog, you’ll learn eight things you should consider while choosing your next shipping container.

There are various things to consider when buying a shipping container, including cost, size, condition, usage, security, surface prep, location, accessories, and maintenance.

There are various uses for shipping containers – storage, mobile businesses, small or large homes, offices, cafes, and more. Depending on the application or usage, purchasing accessories for your shipping container will help protect the contents inside and improve functionality.

Whether you’re shopping for a new home or commercial business space, it’s highly unlikely that the last statement would be a deal-breaker. That’s because when it comes to having enough storage space, there is no such thing as too much room.

Can I buy a specific color shipping container? Do I have to paint my container? How can I protect my container so it will last longer? We get these questions from our customers often. The answers can vary based on the unique needs and preferences of each customer.
