I bought my shipping container to store my Kubota works perfectly.
Thank you so much for this, what I learned from this video is definitely going to improve my sales pitch when selling them. I wish more of my customers were like you. Thumbs up.
I have a 20’ tan 1 trip shipping container I keep my L2850 in and it only has the 4 factory vents. Put it in end of last summer then had a knee injury/surgery so it sat at least 6 months not opened. Got in it last week and seen no sign of water or moisture whatsoever so I think I’m good. Haven’t experienced the hot summer with it yet so think g about adding 8 more small vents and possibly a solar fan that pulls air in from the floor in the corner. Mine sits up off the ground about a foot and I keep the grass killed around and of coarse underneath the container.
So a small fan pulling cooler air from the lowest point should help keep it moisture free.
Thanks Jon! Great idea with the soffit plug vents! I'm putting them in mine soon.
Hi Jon! I’ve always liked your shipping container tractor shed and that the tractor just barely fits. It’s probably the best rodent proof tractor storage you can have and reasonably priced too. Thanks for sharing!
That may be an option for me when I build the service road to my back yard, great idea for ventilation.
I looked into containers last fall (2021). Sadly I chose not to because of prices and I tarped my tractor in between snowstorms. I’ll have to look into it again. SE Minnesota here. Love your videos.
We have almost all of our belongings in 3 shipping containers right now. They are great!
I wish I was storing a beast of a tractor like you are there!
Great info Jon and have a great week!
Wow, three of them, maybe you should make your home out of containers. 👍
Keep on tractoring!
Hey there Mr. Ritter that's a great idea with the vents..I'm going to check it out up here I Ontario things might be a bit different but I liking the idea of two an then put a portable garage fastened between the two containers... thanks for the video. Just loven tractor' n 😁
I have a 40' Hi-cube and a 20' std for car and parts storage. In my town you don't need a building permit and they aren't taxed as a building because they are considered portable. They aren't taxed at all, actually. Much cheaper in the long run and you don't have to worry about rodents as you would with any other type of building! I used range vents in the corners of mine for ventilation. The prices have definitely sky rocketed over the last two years due to low supply so I'm glad I bought mine about eight years ago!
Nice to not worry about taxes or building codes. 😁👍
Keep on tractoring!
Hey Jon, glad to see you farther north. I'd looked at the containers for the cay but the shipping was just as much as the seacan itself. Joys of being too rural I guess. Take care! 👍🚜🏝🌴🍁
Also venting at the top and LOWER at the bottom is important if you store any gasoline or propane in the container. That would include anything in fuel tanks of equipment. Propane fumes will vent out the bottom holes and gasoline fumes will vent out the top holes. You don't want to blow your self and your your things up.
Very good point for those storing propane!
Keep on tractoring!
I'd be worried I'd nick the side - my bucket is too wide anyways but the amount of times I've touched things with my bucket.... I think you'd be through the side of that container before you realized you touched it. I can't believe you stuffed that thing in there lol. Bravo.
Yup 2 shipping containers are in my future. I'll span them to create a covered area between the two containers. Thanks for showing off the vents.
I would like to the same thing someday.
Keep on tractoring!
Great idea with those vents, Jon. 👍
Thanks Ed!
Keep on tractoring!
Billstmax has 2 containers one for his slingshot and one for tractors. He has the ceilings spray foamed, a little costly to do. I use to upload them at work, some had the canvas tops to load with overhead cranes. Once driving a forklift i stuck the fork into the side and it put a nice hole in it. My bad!
I recently bought a 20’ - they delivered it, not perfect, floor patches, a wall patch, it cost delivered to PA, $2277. On a Credit Card. Door closes, with pushing & 2 people is easier to close. On a scale of 1-10, I rate about 3.5 to 4! It was the cheapest solution for me.
Heyhey Jon I just bpought the last one available in Fairbanks. When I called them they had 2 an hour later when I got there they had 1 and I bought it. But unfortunately it was $5200 and not $3000. You guys will see it soon I haven't even got it delivered yet. Take care my friend
My uncle had on on the farm for storage. I have seen videos where people have built homes with them.
Some people have turned them into swimming pools. Do a search for that, some cool ideas. 👍
Keep on tractoring!
Another good idea is to have two but space them about ten feet apart. Now you can put trusses over them and have a garage in the middle. Sadly the by-laws here will not allow them on private property in town.
The only thing that you have to check out. Can you have one in your yard. Some places they have rules for having them in your yard.
If you buy one beware of an out fit called Container One. They sold me a 20 ft that was heavy damaged side walls puffed out 6 in. Hinge frames all bent. They said this was just cosmetic .
I used your link to buy those vents, hope they work, haha
I’m considering two 40 foot high cube containers with a roof section in between them to store trailers. The negative- there expensive like everything else.
I’m not seeing a huge price jump in our area. The 20 footers can still be found for around 3000 a 3500. Where are you located?
Keep on tractoring!
How hot inside during summer? Have only heard bad things about shipping containers
Great idea for off site storage or just storage at home. One could even paint it to match their decor at the house. How wide is the inside? just wondering if my 16 foot trailer would fit in one. Thanks for the video Jon. Take care buddy 👋
The inside width is exactly 8 foot. Guessing that would fit your trailer. I think getting a bunch of those harbor freight scaffolding sets and using it for implement and attachment storage would be great.
Keep on tractoring!
@@ritterjon Thanks Jon for the info. I actually have been looking at the harbor freight set up. great minds think alike. Lol. Take care buddy. 👋
Hey, Jon - appreciate your sharing an economical solution for storage. I'm thinking of getting a bass boat and it occurred to me this might be an affordable solution, without buying or building a small garage. And I've got plenty of land to place a container on. My only concern is the adequate ventilation of gas fumes. I live in the Southeast, and the summer heat can get pretty intense. So, I want to be cautious about sealing up gas fumes in one of these. But it sounds as if your ventilation holes would make it safe. The other thing I like is that the container is rodent-proof. As mice will get into a garage, and then the boat - and can decimate wiring, upholstery, etc. Thoughts? Thanks!
I think a container would be perfect for your boat. Yes the added ventilation I’ve added takes care of any fumes that would accumulate. Being rodent proof is extremely important as well. Go buy one!
Keep on tractoring!
What drill or what kind of drill bit did you used to drill that 2" hole for your vents. I would like to do the same thing to my container as well. Thanks
Nevermind you said it at the end
Hope it all goes well for you! Buy a few of them, they’ll wear out.
Keep on tractoring!
Then you can have truck back up to it and load it on to trailer and away you go! 😁😉😁
Someday maybe I’ll have a rig large enough for that task. 😂
Keep on tractoring!
Maybe,, but it can get hot and humid inside
If they are vented properly, there will be no condensation inside due to the air circulating through from the outside.
LEARN CONTAINER GRADES before buying lest ye waste serious money. For my machine shop space I made the mistake of buying two WWT (Wind and Water Tight) grade which REALLY means "removed from sea freight use" due to damage and almost always trashed end door gaskets. I recoated the roofs after welding them together (FCAW in a suticase feeder) but my next containers were "one trip" grade 40' High Cubes with doors on both ends. Those seal properly and are a fine home for my classic motorcycle collection.
