    $1500 is about the scrap value of each one depending on size, wieght, how much aluminum etc.....I would take the $1500 and have your crew do something else more productive

    I was given this 43 ft reefer box for a case of cold Budweiser but I spent about $500. getting it here and nudged into place.
    The upside is I now have an insulated weather tight building to work out of........I just need two three more to hide the rest of my junk.

    It really depends on what trailers you have. I've scrapped a log trailer and got under $500, but an aluminum dump trailer brought in over $2000. The van trailers will vary. If you have a wood floor and it's insulated, grab the $1500. If you have an aluminum floor and no insulation, you might do better.

    I do think they are better for storage than scrapping though.
