I have a 4m long flat pack container (from PortableSpace), the heaviest panel is 153kg (total weight 421kg)
Two strong people struggle to carry each panel, I generally have four people available when moving them.
With the panels carefully situated, assembly can be done by one person (with some difficulty), two people make it far easier.
The roof however, really needs several people to complete the installation, 2-3 for the lift and one to guide it in to position.
It's a fantastic product and very well engineered but certainly at this size, isn't a one person job.
In total, it's around 50 bolts to secure, so not at all difficult.
The base is constructed from timber boards (with metal frame), which do need replacing every few years.

A used-once shipping container will likely be cheaper, even with delivery but might not be practical, depending on access and the intended site of the container (HGV with crane, less than an hour to off-load and site).

As mentioned above, Asguard sheds are also a great (if expensive) option.

Yes I have looked into the container options and they seem to run about the same price as decent sheds like asgard (1-2k) so little benefit and much more issues with delivery and setup. It will only be me to put together and also move probably about 500m from dumping place to where I want to site it.

Thinking perhaps a more modest 8x10ish will be enough for my requirements while being considerably cheaper and easier to put up. Asgard have one for around a grand for that sort of size from memory of looking recently.

Reading between the lines, it seems you are hoping to live van-life style on some agricultural land and need a structure for storage purposes. Before investing in the latter, my first step would be to ascertain how 'flexible' the local authority is about ventures like that.

Where I am, the usual length of toleration for off grid settlement is at least a few years, but other factors may come into play. We had what was known as the 'mud hut couple' a few years ago, who courted publicity, meaning the LA acted sooner rather than later.

Usually, the more remote you are the better, and the absence of near neighbours helps. Also, if you can convince others you aren't living on the site, things will be easier. We have one little holding with a polytunnel and a Luton van container which has survived, even alongside a main road. Of course, in that scenario, locals and planning officers can see when someone's present, or not, and act accordingly.
