In the very beginning we stored wood in a 20ft container it sweated that much the condensation was dripping off the roof.

Shipping containers just don't have no where near the airflow.

Wood didn't dry but grow some nice mould :thumbdown:

If you can find a fairly cheap horse shelter they are ok as you can sit them on a bed of pallets and remove some of the boards to allow airflow plus the front is normally open with a overhang like a porch.

I have 2 containers, i super dooper storage one, condensation is bad. The other is an insulated ex army medical container, condensation here is not so bad.

 

But for firewood storage, keep the rain off and let the wind blow through it, a storage container in my opinion is a far worse choice than an open barn.
