Can I leave my container for months or even longer without periodically airing it?
You can, however it is not advisable. If you won't have any alternative, it is defintely adviseable to cover/wrap important items and hang shipping container moisture absorbers in the container. These can be purchased from sites such as ebay and are quite effective. Even if you will be accessing the container regularly, moisture absorbers are still an added bonus.
