Even more interesting, those containers get emptied and sit in storage because we don’t send much back. There is a shortage of containers in Asia and prices for a container are some 400% higher than they were a year ago.
Those containers could be turned into in-law units in peoples back yards.
It’s because of all that free money.
It’s by design I think.
Export money, jobs and intellectual property, import shit.
I bring in several containers a month from Europe. The shipping crisis is real. Yes, the boats are stacking up, but then the trains do the same as well as shortage of truckers. It’s a mess and really taking a toll on parts of our economy.
