Interesting comments. Especially that the containers are not as easy to come by over there. Might be worth while to buy one (or 2) here and use it to ship belongings. 2 would probably be prohibitive price-wise for shipping.
Saw a tv show about simple housing where a shipping container used for refrigeration was used because apparently had wonderful insulation.
I saw one idea for a vacation cabin where the deck folds up and locks when not in use.
There are some really nice designs out there. They are narrow, though.
We just want to use them for a shop. 2 with space or deck in between with roof over both. Maybe just one with a deck in front and roof over all?
Think now it is more cost-effective to buy an existing house.
