CONTAINER HOMES!!! The new way to build a home and save $$$$

[womanatwittsend]

I am interested in how/cost of the containers to be sealed to prevent rust as another vid talk about the steel only being guaranteed for 3 to 5 years.

[Dregowz]

what hapens if lightning strikes it wen you are inside ??

[deetheo]

instrumental beat is a beauty!

There are many shipping container designs around the world now. This is good for recycling unused containers. Keep up the good work. We at Canada have our own way of looking at things about these container housing. For more information check our video channel to see some innovations happening right now.

[GHSNo34]

yeee,its not blurry anymore!!!!!!!!!!

[TheCessnaDriver]

@0:55 not a shipping container

[bootiack]

cool, why not more malleable use of metal panels and why not combine with plastic forms filled with conrete

[8126295974]

being in a she can in the summertime is like being in an oven. And in the winter its no warmer inside than it is outside. Someone please msg me and explain...

[spellground]

tree house @ 0:54 would suit me fine ! thanks for the vid

[rreman81]

can someone tell me what is going at 2:23 in this video. Link please. It looks like a pneumatic bed...

[kwldr123]

Okay, it's great you show all these cool pictures. Start posting overall cost to make one look like what you are showing in the video. The amount of glass that some of what you show here would cost an arm and a leg, if you buy the "energy efficient" kind. So, there are probably more cons than pros to having something like this.

[thescarletives]

@kwldr123 surely that would still cost less than conventional brickwork

[GrayHatLinux]

@kwldr123 The boxes are under 5 grand a piece, and that's for the big ones. Even if the glass costs an arm, a leg, and the other hand, you still save tons of money.

[DrLsw]

@GrayHatLinux no, unless you put it all together yourself you're looking at general contracting people to come out and put the containers together and install all the windows, plumbing, electricity, all the hard wood flooring, furniture, carpeting, appliances, concrete, lighting, etc etc.. shipping container homes were originally meant to be a cheap and sturdy off the grid alternative to modern living some of the homes in this video could easily run you upwards of 60-70k

[MarijuanaSoldiers]

@kwldr123 atleast if i build one and the world ends ill be safe lol where will you be? oh yea... a zombie...

[kppteam]

Whit shipping container you will have to pay tax as normal house. Seach for "Cube affordable housing" here. Great ideas realy low prices on tiny tax free houses.

[SaskatoonFuckinRules]

Looks like this is the wealthy's new fad ... just wonder how long this resource will last ... we only have so many available and they should be reserved for low income people or ones with disabilities preventing them from being employed.

[SecularMentat]

@SaskatoonFuckinRules They're actually really cheap in comparison to other building materials, but yeah the resource for the actual materials used might run out. Unless we started recycling cars to make them.

[scoeyw]

0:58 That's a camper, not a shipping container. Tisk Tisk...

[MrMegaNigguh]

i worked for a company that made thse in Canada

[989blake]

$2,000.00 per container all day long...

[EUGENECUB]

I like the soundtrack, alot!



[MyBanana4]

to make one out of a single 10' X 40' high cube, with interior and land, everything, i calculated around $25,000. just for the FAQ's

[1joanpr100]

How much those these container homes cost? Hope their not too expensive as other concrete and wood houses! Then it won't be worth buying.

[KnowYourRealEstate]

Lots of good ideas in this video!

[ushillbillies]

We would freeze in those things up in here in Frozen TURD Alberta...

[masterkeep]

@ushillbillies There are videos of one built there- I will post if I can find it again. Insulating the exterior walls and ceiling/roof level is the key- only need 7 inches of closed cell spray foam on roof to exceed R38. Think of the containers as building blocks / modular components.

[SecularMentat]

@ushillbillies There was one guy that would bury them to make a subterranean home because of the temperature issues, but then that becomes a problem of being snowed under massive amounts of snow.

[trexlergreen]

@SecularMentat I guess you could make it earth bermed. Snow isn't going to harm it. You could build a "false roof" a slanted roof top so the snow can slide off. I personally plan on a roof deck, but these houses, as any house - has to be fully insulated. Any house would be a hot box without insulation and windows. These won't be as easily knocked over in a storm, as houses are.

[Dannyalexanrdo]

Wait I take that back. Just read on the website that some are here.

[Dannyalexanrdo]

I have wanted to do this since I saw an ad for container shooting ranges but her in California I doubt I can get permits for this:(

[cymonebreathe]

2:08 is that a pool inside?

[PHANTOMSLAYER7]

Only one problem, not allowed anywhere, unless you are some rich evil doer.

[EssenceOfHope]

@PHANTOMSLAYER7

You're kidding, right?

There are offices, homes, condos, apartments, etc. all over the world made with containers. It's not as common in certain parts of the world but they're out there.

[TheXJthatCould]

why would you ask what those homes are made of if its in the title?...

[assmonkey75]

Pretty sweet...

[bavery76]

Ellenranit - It's transforming from Optimus' trailer into a home. ;)

[darkside3704]
