building with shipping containers
#15
Big Island containers sells them in hilo. Affordable Portable Housing quoted me $4700 plus shipping to hilo. I am not sure they would be cost effective really.You need 2-3 for a decent size house and then you have to cut the inside walls out,roof,windows,doors,the ceramic coating that they recommend to deflect heat is $200 a gallon. I like the idea and have seen several nice plans but it doesnt come out to be much cheaper than a conventional stick built if you are doing it yourself.
