The cost of a shipping container workshop depends on the size, fitout, and delivery address. However, compared to a self-build option, it would be cheaper and quicker. While some sheds may be available for purchase, assembly, or delivery at a similar cost, they won’t be as durable and cannot be relocated to another work site.

It really depends on what you’re storing. If you’re storing dry goods and don’t need frequent access, the breather vents on the container’s side walls are usually sufficient. However, if you’re storing items that generate condensation, installing two vents and a whirly bird can help create cross-flow ventilation inside the container, reducing the risk of mould.
