The Amazing 160 sq. ft Shipping Container

Check out this little shipping container house. They’ve really put some time into the interior design of this one, and the exterior has a stylish look as well, with the rooftop patio having a wood floor and bench, and sleek corrugated iron cladding.

To build a shipping container house you first of all need a container or multiple containers. They come both new or used. A container can be purchased from your dealer. Suppliers are often in large commercial ports.

40 foot container: A container costs between $2200 and $3300 US. They also have 20 foot ones, and other sizes, like this one.

It takes one or two containers to build up a cabin or a small house. The shipping containers come painted. Transportation and installation of the package has an additional price. An old container can cost much less, but you have to buy a waterproof container, so make sure it meets that requirement.
