Been getting quotes for shipping container for camp.
Seems like there are a bunch of "brokers" out there and the closest hub is in Memphis.
Our landowner told me that he thought he remembered seeing a place on Hwy 1 South of G'ville, but wasn't sure if was still in business.
If any of you guys know of this place, please send me a contact number.
I'd like to eliminate the middle man if possible.
Any other advice is also appreciated.

What kind of prices are you seeing?
I sent a few links to Bill a week or 2 ago for places in Memphis. Haven't asked if he moved on one yet though.

We've purchased two containers from Swiftwater. I'm wanting to say we paid $4500 for one in good shape.

Thanks guys.


Joel - Best price i've seen is $2400 for a 40' WWT grade unit. As of last week, Bill had not pulled the trigger yet.
They keep getting higher & higher. I assume due to the recent "trendy" tiny house craze or whatever it's called.

There is also a place on 59 between Hattiesburg and Laurel sells them. May be too far for you. Endom Trailers

Swiftwater in Greenville is PROUD of their containers! Must come already stocked with liquor or hunting gear.
Allen Spraggins is no longer involved with them, btw.
