An elderly friend has a couple of 40 ft containers near Parump Nv that he needs to dispose of - any clue how to value them or who may want to buy them?

They sell for $2k-$2.5k depending on condition. Few individuals will be interested in buying them unless you can deliver them. The companies that sell containers might buy them at a discount that would cover their pickup costs and give them a profit when they resell them, perhaps $1k.
Round here, they are selling for $3k, and that's delivered. And that's for a seagoing container. Shipping and delivery are going to be the bugger. Check with the local seller of these things, as I heard recently their supply dried up.

I know a guy who has a yard that sells these. That's what he told me. Said they were in short supply for a while, but seem to be back now. Just what I heard from someone in the business. FWIW.
Around here, the 40's were 2300-2500. Now they're in the 3000 range. Go figger. Steve
