These are slightly higher end, and from what I've seen they go for $2-3000. But still yes, it is ridiculous, and the company wont offer them for sale per the current contract! For convenience sake he'd rather pay the monthly fee than haul all his junk out, get them to pick the container up, buy new ones, and put all his cheap useless junk back in.
It's maddening!
Damn, first I misread your comment as saying your father charges other people 500 a month.
He could probably find someone to move the stuff for him for a small fee.
If only you knew my father and his distrust of most things. He's been watching 5+ hours of Fox News daily for 30+ years. There isn't much left in that mind.
One day you may be thankful that the junk is already in containers. You should be able to winch those up on a container truck for disposal
Just sorting it out for him
