The container would probably be fine with a couple of precautions, vents if possible but if its rented then that may not be allowed, keeping the doors open a bit while in there would help but heading into winter is going to be cold and let the noise out, you can also get moisture absorbers, just bags of crystals to help take the moisture out of the air.

if it helps we have 7 or so at work we use to store train parts and spares as store rooms all stay dry rain or shine and nothing goes rusty

I have got six in the yard and they sweat more than a aussie builders armpit
I was thinking of turfing them out and using the paint but they are stacked the the ceiling and its a mammoth undertaking. I reckon your better off seeing a local farmer to rent a shed.

I build my entire car in a 20ft box, aslong as you work tidy its fine, it's actually bigger than a standard single garage I think.
