    Hi All,

    Currently starting to build house and I'm looking to buy a 2nd hand 10ft/20ft container for storage. Area is Louth

    Some of the questions I have include:

    - anybody bought one of these before?
    - if so, from where?
    - Delivery Cost and unloading?
    - Selling it on after build completion

    Cheers,

    D

    1) No, but user Cormie, has been trying to sell one a while ago on FS General
    2) see above
    3) 20ft truck with hi-ab crane, should be €300-400 for a single run Dublin to louth
    4) Dunno really - garden shed perhaps;)

    A friend of a friend has one out his back garden that he converted to a garden shed. Put wooden panels and the outside. Looks the business actually.

    I bought a 15ft there recently for €1250 plus VAT and another €100 to get it delivered but it was only about 15 miles.

    it was the front end of a 40ft with the double doors, he also fitted a locking box on it for that price

    I bought it off of a company, well I say company the guy owns a few trucks and does this on the side. genrally gets in a 40ft and cuts it down to 10fts, 20ft, etc. he will put whatever doors etc you want in aswell

    I will pm you his name etc.
