Off the grid

Just a quick video I found of 15 houses, showing the versatility of shipping container homes.

  1. Hey Paul,

    Do you know how much money the average shipping container costs to buy after they've been discarded?
    Thanks!

    1. What I've found is that they go anywhere from $2,000 to $4,000 per container once they have been retired

    I Really like the ideas that have come to be from this type of building. I look forward to finding out more about this as it has direct relevance to my own project. Loved the video

  3. Hey, I have a funny feeling you have seen this video, but it incorporates many cool ideas into such a small space. One room even becomes two!

    I think it would definitely have some cool ideas that you could add into your shipping container.

    1. You read my mind Sean, I actually watched that video about 20 minutes before seeing this, and it has some great features for small living areas. Thanks!
