How much does that size container cost?
Got a 40’ high cube last May
I had it painted on the outside, roll up door and man doors installed, cost delivered was $5900.00
watch the video all the way through...I go into detail about all this my friend
My neighbor cut windows in his and vinyl sided it.
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer ,, Brenda the commenter is a lot like my lady friend, she sees me but does not hear me! :)
I bought two 40 ft shipping containers for $2,500 per container. To get these containers for cheap you should buy them directly from container ports which sell them 50 percent cheaper than the going rate! That is how container supplier's buy them and re sale them for $3,500 or even 5,200 dollars per 40 ft container. There tons of shipping containers sitting empty at the ports that are for sale!
Vertical storage is gona be your friend with that container, shelves will definitely help!
I put a solar power fan in back end and a vent in door to keep moisture out and make cooler in summer
we have 4 . two we put on concrete piers 12 ft apart, built 4 ft nee walls on the out side edges and ran rafters 12/12 pitch. shed roofs on each side. saw mill on one side and lumber storage every were, the center is a shop/tractor storage.
I want to see!
I've got a smaller container buried in a hillside. Had to shore it up inside with 4x4s to keep it from buckling. Moving it was a major job even with two tractors. Had to roll logs under it. But, got it done. Great video. As usual. I also covered it in tar and plastic, to boot before burying it. No leaks.
I've thought about doing the same. It would make a great root cellar and give us somewhere to retreat to in severe storms.
with the cost of metal buildings and getting a crew to work building something these are a great option. we reinforced two inside and built a hell of a shed between them
Thanks for all the information including the price. Most people don’t want to share the important stuff.
Biggest tip about placing a shipping container for anyone wanting to get one is avoid placing right on the ground. Being flush with the ground is going to trap moister under the container and seep through the floor and possible mold.
Second, it best to place it on its legs so there is clearance under it. Having the space under it big enough for predators will keep rodents from living under it.
Paint roof with mobile home reflect paint it seals stay cooler during the summer
You can import Tata Steel from India which is a bit cheaper in price but quality is standard. By the way love from India.(Thank you Josh for giving a heart to my comment)
Need to build shelving down both sides in those to utilize all the space efficiently.
Paint it inside and out with Rust-Oleum to keep the rust down. Use a white inside and it will reflect more light and be brighter. Use white or light gray outside to keep the heat down in the summer or darker colors if you want it to absorb heat in the winter.
video coming soon on the proper coatings to use on the container...once I get it all together I'll paint the trusses, posts and container..you make a great point for sure!
RUSTOLEUM...LMAO oil or grease last longer and prevents more rust. might as well rub dip grip.
I think it’s DuPont has a paint that is great for heat and reflecting the sun rays. The only other thing I would suggest is make a ridge cap or a solar powered vent fan. The condensation in those containers are the worst
I found some good direct to metal paints at farm and fleet. "metal building paint" supposed to work really well on this
White elastomeric roof coating can also be tinted and would work great sprayed on.
Painting the Inside of the container white will make a big difference it reflects the light. Thanks for Your service and keep making videos.
My husband worked in Alaska almost 10 years falling timber and he said the company got those containers and put lights in them so the fallers could get out of the elements and file their chains.they also had some for storage like tools for the mechanics, logging supplies...
Would make a great tiny house. Thanks for taking the time to share with us.
Josh, I used to certify those containers sea worthy in the military. Get it off the ground asap to prevent corrosion and critters. Also, they are corrugated side to side. Tilting it length wise will do nothing for you. If it holds water on the roof tilt it to the side a little. Love the vids , happy new year.
SMART MAN! If there is a WAY then water will find it!
Josh , they are great for storage. I have several on the property, I used 8" solid block to keep them off the ground and paint the roof with silver mobile home roof paint to keep inside temperature down. You have to be careful what you put in them because the temperature exceeds 120 degrees in the summer time if closed up.
Always majority life motivational to me.... I just had to replace my stolen 2500 diesel work truck... So now I'm building a 3500 diesel dually on my YT channel.... Salute to everyone grind, Motivations, accomplishments , families , goals.....
Hey Josh most containers are painted with a special paint for rust and corrosion check into it before you begin painting
Wishing you health, wealth and happiness for the new year.
Some places here in Manitoba have banned people from using shipping containers for storage. 🤦♂️. I'm looking forward to seeing your finished build.
May I ask why?
😆 its canada i'm not going to even ask the reason why they're banned.
@@John1911 I'm not sure why, I would have to look it up.
@John1911 because it's backwards a$$ Canada
We are planning a shipping container barn 2 big ones 2 smaller ones ( to make doors) make a box add rafters then there is a place for cows and sheep and in the containers will be hay and feed storage
Hi..... Josh Stoney Ridge farmer, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
That is an idea about the container.
😊🇺🇸
Before I retired the company I managed bought , rented and sold shipping containers. They are graded from A, single trip to anF being rusty and might have some holes. The availability and price have gone up a lot. Yours is called a high cube being 9.5 ft. High vs 8X8X 40’. Takes 5 gallons of paint to do a 40 but your is also taller too. They are made with Corten Steel from China of course.
A nice multi use item..
Have a good day ❄❄❄
I’d paint it bright white inside! You get the most out of your light. Makes a big difference
The price for these has jumped so much the last 2 years. We bought 2 40ft containers in Houston in Feb 2020 for $1800 each. I hope the price comes back down. Such a great storage space. Great video as always.
Where did you find them so cheap?
I stay an hour north of Houston.
Raise it high enough so your cats can get under it to keep your new ‘mouse hotel’ empty. Concrete blocks are designed to be placed vertically, some people throw them under sideways and wonder why they crack when the ground shifts.
Also good idea to fill those blocks with concrete. For a container this side you better go for stacked up 1'x2' concrete slabs. Much stronger.
the dont bury it part.. leggit didnt expect to learn something that unknown today.
They are also open to the bottom. If you take up the wood. It will be open to dirt. Some people bury them and if they dont collapse, they fill up with water from water table.
Josh, Some ideas from someone that has two containers and has had one for at least eleven years. If you are going to paint the metal, look into rust converter as it makes the paint work and last much better. Give serious thought into painting the inside white or light gray to make it brighter, I didn't and I wish I had. I used the large round magnets (90# rated) that Harbor Freight sells to hang lights from the ceiling, the medium sized ones do not work as there is not enough metal in the roof to support the weight. By using the magnets you are able to move the lights and it does not put any leaks into the roof. Magnets are your friend for hanging stuff on the walls as well. I did put conduit along the square tubing in the roof and it worked well. But to try and mount anything to the corner columns was not going to happen, way too thick and hard. I had find another way to mount switch and receptacle boxes on them and the walls, liquid nails and pieces of strut or wood worked for those. Have fun, it is amazing what you can do with them and the ways you can build out storage inside them. Oh yes, one last hint, paint the roof bright white. Otherwise it will be an oven in the summer.
Holy Guacamole! I might have to TRY and join the FACE BOOK to keep track of this deal!
Josh, I didn't realize how many mice were around outside until I saw the tunnels they make under the snow.
Cost depends on how far away you are from a shippimg port. Webought 2 of them lasr year for $2000 a pice deliverd but are farm is only45 miles from the port of Cleveland Ohio.
Love the Yota!
Hey Josh, we had Greg deliver two 40' containers for our property. First one we bought was just over $3000 in 2020. Second one we bought in 2021 was just over $5000. Seems they've gone up even more since we bought last may. So far we've had no problems with ours.
national debt went up, money printer is going BRRRRRTTTTTTT faster than they can print it, law of supply and demand, deflation of the value of a dollar which is either backed by land asset or slavery of the citizens.
Hey Darlene ..... Post an address or number for Greg so those of us in never neverland can contact him. Thanks Don
Interesting! I’ve seen these used as cabins, hunting cabins, etc., too. You could even fancy it up and do a mural (sunflowers, SRF, Americana) theme on the side of it- basically a blank canvas. Great storage capacity!
I have a large container as well, used it to move my stuff from MooseJaw Saskatchewan to Tatamagouche Nova Scotia.
Thanks for posting!
Some good storage there - I know around here they always recommend treating the floor if it's not a new contain - one never knows what chemicals have all been shipped in it that could be dangerous to your health and/or the animals - Looking forward to you working on the trailer.... Happy New Year....!! May you be happy, healthy and prosperous....
My property came with 2, joined by a cover. They sit on sunken RR ties so the floors are still about 6 inches off of the ground. They house my IBC totes where I raise Tilapia and Channel Cat fry. All solar powered.
I'd put it next to the car port Josh. Park the sawmill inside, pull it out alongside when using. All the accessories in the back of the container and all out of the way for the pole barn build. Great storage for the sawmill being such a valuable asset.
Interesting to hear "don't bury it". I've heard loads of people with that idea so great advice.
carport is moving too my friend! All this stuff is gonna be shuffled around for the new shop build
Got a 40 ft hi cube last year. It's been great for extra storage on the farm. I painted the inside with white direct to metal paint from Sherwin Williams got 4 led shop lights from Lowes and rigged magnets to the top to mount em. There's also a guy in California that sells kits to add ventilation to these things. With your Turbine vent. They will sweat if there are temp swings so keep that in mind. Windows are next. Happy New Year!
Hey Josh, I helped a Buddy level his using a floor jack, one corner at a time. We put it up on solid cement blocks. We have them here in Pa. for less money.
yeppers...when ya have heavy equipment it certainly simplifies the process...this is not the container's final resting place
First off, love our shipping container! Second, our delivery guy also said do not bury (had someone here in MI actually try and it DID cave in on him while he was in it).
I think the saw mill idea is a great one! We talked about adding a second one about 15 feet away and building a roof over the top to either park equipment under, or get a saw mill to out under. You can use these for kiln drying wood too!
I wouldn't put hay though.. they would condensate to death and it would rain like crazy in it. Ours does get a bit of inside rain just with boxes and Rubbermaid bins, but nothing like the barn does 😣.
Look at adding some sort of fan to circulate air. I keep ours cracked in the summer, it gets so hot you cannot get closee the the sides. We need a fan for sure!
Overall though, I agree it's a great storage idea!!
That idea of a second one with covered space in between is typically a good way to do it. But with a saw mill you probably also want to be able to bring in logs from the side. And then that second container is in the way.
Folks down south don't have a problem with burying containers for safety bunkers against hurricanes or tornadoes. Just don't drive with tractors over it and as long as it's deep enough for grass to grow on top.
Spraying rubber tar on the outside and foam insulation on the inside and you'll be fine.
I bought one that is almost identical 2 years ago for $1,800. It's crazy how much the price on those containers have gone up! I could more than double my money on it if I was done with it.
The guy that delivered mine put it right where I wanted it, and had it on the ground before I could even get the camera turned on to record it being unloaded.
I'm glad you said not to bury one. I cringed when you said it earlier in the video becasue I've also heard of catastrophic failure when they are buried. They aren't made for that, as you mentioned.
Josh that's a perfect dry storage if off the ground.
I just leased a 40" high cube like this for $129. per month. I did a video on how I leveled it up using a floor jack and cap blocks. Good video Josh.
It's best to purchase one with doors on each end....
Thank you 👍
Thank you Josh!!
If you want a trailer go to Armstrong transportation they have 50 footers
Good Advice; I'm an Engineer
My total Cost delivered was $4400 for mine, delivered to NC . Look up AWOL in Charleston SC
Sometimes those do get condensation inside when it goes from really cold to warm. Probably not where you are tho, really only happens during big temperature swings say like 20s to 40s in a day. I put a small 12 by 12 vent on one of the doors and that solved the problem. They definitely make for great storage I didn’t realize they went up in price so much, not really surprised tho. Happy new year’s josh!
Hello from Minnesota!
I bought a 40-footer by 8 ft tall storage container in March 2021 I paid $3,800 and that was delivered I leveled the ground before it got delivered and used railroad ties to set it on . I bought a second one 6 months later the price went up 400 bucks
Josh, that looks like a good candidate for led strip lighting. You could even power it with a solar panel and a deep cycle battery. We have one at work for cleaning equipment, and we ran a cord and used temporary lights inside. We ran half of the power cord in through the plastic vent near the rear right side, hooked that to a light switch fastened near where the cord came in, and then attached the other end to the switch, and, and plugged the lights into the female end. We had to do it this way as the box wasn't ours, and we couldn't drill holes in it. We only drilled a hole through the vent for power.
You will want to add more vents in it to prevent condensation. You can buy kits for that. I used two range hood vents on the sides of the container. One at the top rear left side and the other at the top right front side to get a cross flow. They say one should be down low but I wanted to keep it as rodent proof as possible and didn't want to worry about blocking a low one with stuff you put inside. They do make solar panel light kits and also shelves that hang inside. I bought a couple of the shelves and they work great and hold quite a bit. Worth the money!
If you want it dry inside get it sprayed with foam insulation. A friend of mine put 2 smaller containers 12 foot apart and roofed the gap it made a cheap shed
Good for you! That will be a great storage for tools while building shop. Get enough of those and build yourself a house...lol. When you are levelling and lifting it off the ground you'll have to ensure it is high enough that rodents and vermin don't want to live under it...Just thought I'd mention it. Good deal there Josh!
Morning josh they buy the shipping container having them all done out for air b&b some of them look amazing but very handy to have like u say storage very handy to have happy new year josh
yep....building codes often will not allow that legally
Black plastic underneath when it’s at its final resting place will preserve the bottom
Hey Josh thank you for the videoand yes down the road I am going to get myself for shipping containers two of those sizes and two small ones but now I know from your video that's I cannot bury them so thank you Josh and happy New year woo
Josh, awesome information! Thank you!!!
Happy new year 🎈🎉🎈🎉👋😀
After all these years I still love your content. It’s always something different and entertaining. Keep up the good work Josh
Good info! I’ve always wondered about those. -Chad
Made me laugh, before delivery you might even want to bury one for a shelter,”I’m thinking or casket”. After delivery and talking with the guy selling it, you would never want to bury one, it’s dangerous and you could die. Let’s hope that anyone looking for advice on how to build a Cheap underground bunker kept listening. Thanks for sharing, always interesting and entertaining. Wishing you a safe and happy New Year. Looking forward to seeing how you customize it. I’d probably go the route of paint inside and out, light colors definitely for the inside. Solar powered ventilation and led lights. Possibly epoxy sealed floor with silver flecks.
Hi Josh! Thanks for all the great helpful videos. We are starting out with a new 20 acre wooded lot and starting clearing this year. Your idea for the sawmill shed is similar to what I was planning. In my case, I am making a U configuration with (3) 40' containers with a roof. The best part is, the containers can be used for wood drying "kilns" for the wood that comes off the mill. Wood racks on the walls, solar powered vents for airflow, and some creative use of space makes for a great sawmill "zone". In a pinch, I might be able to fit a tractor into the high top container until I build the barn!
Thanks, Josh. I've thought about getting one for years - fun to see it all happen!
Josh, Hope that You can get the container off the ground ASAP!
Awesome. This is a good storage system.
Hi Josh.
Happy new year!
Really good purchase. I like those a lot. The extra height is sweet.
Praying for you Josh.
Sincerely
Ed from Chicago
This video came at the perfect time . I've been looking into getting a 20 footer to make into a tiny house . I'm looking forward to part two . Thank you for everything you do for us . :-) Wooooooo !
Shew....you've got your work cut out for ya
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I was thinking about getting one of their office trailers and going from there.
Hay. Josh. Happy new year’s.
🚜-Woooo!!
Weld in braces. Easy way could be 7018 or .045 hardwire and 1/2" rebar ever 2', at least 3.
Then make sure it's pitched on the sides for a true real waterproof seal.
It could be buried with some welding!
Just wanted to say ran across your channel watching about chickens been loving it all day
awesome! Welcome to the farm!
We use ours for hay. For the sqft you cant beat it. Plus the county cant tax it as a building 😁
Loaded and unloaded hundreds of them and even delivered hundreds of them. Always thought they'd work great for storage
Happy New Year.
Blessings to all 👍❤❤❤👍
you always come up with good ideals!
sweet
If you don't have a history of what's been hauled, you'll want to encapsulate the floor. The wood can contain lots of chemicals.
Josh! You missed your opportunity when you opened the doors to the echoing container to "Whooo", or yodel, or sing one of your songs.
Hey Josh ; Know your next job will be painting the exterior ! Happy new year buddy . John from Canada .
I saw the Virginia Tech sticker in the 'Yoda ... Nice.
Josh have you heard off Andrew camarata you Need to see what he does with containers I washed him for about three years just our luck you’ll be amazed
yep I know of Andrew
You don't have to have heavy equipment to level these. My farm jack handled it great (just don't go too high) the corners have a great spot to put in the jack.
yeppers where there's a will there's a way...this is not where the container will be permanently fyi...got some work ahead of me
Just bought a 20 footer. I have very limited space and it was a pain to get it into camp. They had to get someone with a flat bed truck to deliver it. I am going to use it to store equipment. $4300 there not cheap anymore, thank you Brandon.
Hermoso lugar,ya ansiosa de ver en qué se convertirá ese contenedor,si en una hermosa casa o qué.👏
I purchased two 40HC one trip containers and paid 5100 a piece. No rust. I'm here in Utah.
Looks great! Are yall alright fron the storms today Josh?
Paint inside white with a light. It will make seeing easier.
Don't forget, most of the strength is in the corners and the frame (bottom and top side rails). If you make holes for doors or windows on the sides or end wall you need to frame it to support and strengthen the walls where the openings are. You can use steel studs or wood, just need to put in headers and screw or weld them to the top and bottom, as well as the sides to the studs and header.
The WWT grade containers (I have two and switched to "one trip" grade (with doors on both ends) with much happier results!) were withdrawn from cargo service because of wear and damage so be aware the door gaskets are likely bad. You can buy gasket kits online if keeping the end doors or you can weld a strip of flat bar or angle as a rain deflector between the top corner castings so the water runs off outboard of the door/body interface. I run dehumidifiers in mine and they're raised variously on steel beams and RR ties. (I have five total, two welded side by side as a welding/machine shop.)
I encourage container noobs to study containers and container handling principles because rigging makes life easy. I manually winched my containers into place because I had to get them under power lines but it's easy to do single-handed.
High Cubes are always more desirable for the ventilation and extra cubic footage so I don't buy standard height containers.
Just remember you need it to have 24/7 ventilation. Because I you store flammable materials it can be dangerous if it is air tight. There are many videos of them having explosions. GOD BLESS
Happy New Year Josh...all the best in 2022. You have done such a great job transforming your property...and teaching us all how to do it.....inspirational!
