I got my containers so long ago that I have forgotten who I got them from. Check the BCS Eagle there is an ad in there frequently for containers. I don't know how reasonable they are.

There is a national franchise of free newspapers with all ads called American Classified. Google them and select the city closest to you. Look in the Farm & Ranch section and you should find someone advertising containers. I know that the Bryan paper has such ads frequently.

Containers are a good approach for semi dead storage.
