I got a used container for $1550 last week from Wuwi Shipping Container, it was a pretty good deal.

Glad I was suggested this channel. Would love to see a multi-container project in the future!

Also old containers have moved all kinds of stuff, chemicals etc, and it can be in the wood floor, Id buy only foodgrade old containers for living in, if you dont want health problems later. I worked full time inspecting containers for over a decade.

Can you do a video on law and permit requirements to convert a container into home in Florida.

I'm trying to save up for 10 40 Foot Shipping Containers that are NEW and High Cubed. And the layout will be 2 40 Foot Shipping Containers put together end to end that will measure 80 Foot Long. And lay all the shipping containers that way to make it look like a normal sized home. I'm going to be using the actual Isoynene Closed Cell Spray Foam for all the walls on the inside and outside of the Shipping Containers to maintain the climate inside. On the outside I'm thinking of using water proof and rot resistant wood like Cypress or Teak as siding. One large room on the inside of the house will contain a Dedicated Home Movie Theater Room with either a 180"-290" 16:9 Ratio Fixed Movie Theater Screen with Dolby ATMOS capable Speakers and surround sound.

Have you looked into insulated containers or reefers? I worked on a project using those recently and was wondering why you wouldn’t get these instead of getting a bare one and spending money insulating it...

I love your videos, I have learned many food things

I would test both the used and the new containers for radio activeness. I always do not trust the containers are completely radio activity free. Can you imagine living in a radio active steel box for the rest of your life? George Wu, AIA, Architect, NCARB 2019-10-30

Here where I live ,in northern Canada, a used 40 foot shipping container, costs $5000 ,& a brand new 40 foot container costs 3-4 times that much $15-$20 grand, nobody uses new containers ,here ,cause they just aren't worth the price
