Does the con-ex have to be at a shipping port?
I work commercial construction and the job-sites are littered with them for storage.

I think it is hard no matter what. Container ship area are restricted area. I don't think I can go in there. Unless it is freight forwarder's yard. Is that ok?

Sorry,offtopic again, but those Honda-crates reminded me of one engine crate I once delivered to a Finnish rally-team's carage. Got a few giggles out of it cause the blue pallet had Ford racing-logos on it's legs, and the box on the pallet had this huge text written on each side of it. It said: CAUTION! DO NOT STACK IN TRANSIT!

Got the pallet pic...only there's one little but... Neither of the two bikes in the pic is mine so I wondered will it fly... I was taking my truck's keys to the locker in my and my friends companies joint carage and noticed a stack of pallets along with both my friends bikes beside it... one is an f4 if it will do any good...
