When planning a shipping container building its important to do all the budgeting before you start your project. your home could cost anywhere from $30,000-$200,000 by the time you�ve finished it.. From memory the containers themselves cost around $11k. storage container homes, also called shipping container homes, offer a fast, sustainable and green approach to conventional building. because the steel containers are built in a factory-controlled setting, they are standardized, durable and easy to transport.. The total cost for a large house to be built from containers is between $150,000 and $175,000, after any options or add-ons are completed. this is still less than half the price per square foot of a conventional home..
This house doesn't even make you decide whether you want to be outdoors or in. this adorable snow fort in quebec took seven shipping containers to make. it cost only $40,000 to build.. I did a calculation to determine if using two shipping containers as the structure of the house was actually the highest and best use: an empty 40' shipping container weighs 8380 pounds.. Architect sebasti�n irarr�zaval used five 40-foot containers and six 20-foot containers (and an extra open-top 40-footer for the pool) to build this nearly 4,000-square-foot home in santiago, chile..
