• hhmmm, you now have a privately owned container on private property.
  
  doesn't sound like a commercial construct to me.
  
  the only problem is if it falls withing an allowable structure design to be placed on your property. That may be the crux of your problem. It may not fit the guidelines required to be considered an acceptable addition to your property and is therefore considered basically "junk" and is being treated as such.
  
  Now here is a game that is played in my area as well as many others;
  
  permanent structures are almost always required to meet building codes of some sort and are regulated. Temp structures aren;t. As long as the container is not on a foundation and is mobile, it would not be considered permanent in my area so it would not fall under the same rules as a permanent building.
  
  We tend to get away with a lot around here with that.
