Eh, the Illuminati …
Eh, the Illuminati are run by reptilian kin known as naga, jinn, demons, bluebloods, vampires, Al Gore, Al Pike, Windsors, Rothschilds etc that rule the core of Freemasonry that do vile sex & torture rituals. They’ll probably have WW3, introduce internet 2, force-vaccinate many in Fall and stage an alien invasion to get a fascist world government with you microchipped so resist!

OK that sounds a little better. I thought they were all just left there to be scrapped.

we do. as metal balls after they are scrapped. it may cost $900 to send one empty container, but it also only costs $900 to ship one open-top container full of metal balls (that used to be containers) back to china.

Well it wouldn’t be dead weight if China reuses to containers right? Maybe the US can sell those containers back to whoever manufactures them.

The more weight the …
The more weight the ship has to carry, the more fuel it has to burn to make the journey. Why bring dead weight back to China?

And people thought I was nuts when I designed my future home using ocean containers. If you can show me a steel eating termite, then you’ve beaten my idea ;).

If any one is …
If any one is interested in doing this, the final cost will be about $5-8000 for one, including inside design and plumming, small kitchen shower and bathroom.
You can buy shipping containers on ebay for $1500-3000 Shipping may cost around $100-500 depending on the distance.
Putting the insides is cheap and easy to do. Now compare that to same size room where you live for $500-1500 for an apartment where you live. this would pay of in a year, plus you get to keep it, or sell it when your done.

I guess that makes sense. But couldn’t they put the empty containers on the same boat that’s going to China?

They stack up in destination Countries like The US. We ship much less to China than they ship to us.

Wow it actually looks really modern on the interior. Why don’t shipping companies just reuse the containers instead of throwing thing away?
