Don’t know what adding up on means or where Alameda county is but sounds like you want to put to 20’ containers side by side. Good idea out some I have seen put them 15-20’ apart and build a roof over the center gap for more storage.

Sounds like you are in alameda , ca so you are near san fran, sea cans should be easy to come by. you should check with your county regarding permits. stick built will need them but there may be a loop hole since the sea cans are not permanent structures, if you have close neighbors they may not like seeing them and could cause you grief. there are a ton of videos on youtube turning them into everything from shops to houses.

I have two 40' sea containers already. I might swap one of my 40's with my sister's 20' at some point. I've considered building a roof across two of them for open parking under the roof for my tractor, the chickens, etc.
