20' Shipping Containers | 40' Shipping Containers | 40' High Cube Containers | Container Housing | How to Buy a Shipping Container |
If you're in central Florida and looking for a shipping container home for sale, a friend of ours has a great turn-key option for you. This container home started with a 45' high cube container and has virtually everything that you'd need for either a permanent residence or a week end get away place.
Let's start off with the construction process, which was very well documented. They started out by pressure washing the entire container, then killing all of the rust, and made sure that the container was completely water tight. The fabrication began with installing windows and a double pane sliding glass door, which is also tinted to reduce the heat and glare, while providing a little privacy. The walls were framed out with 2x3 studs and sprayed with urethane foam for insulation. |
Power and water are very efficient and economical. The container home is powered by with a 100 AMP system and low watt, high output LED lighting. Full plumbing was installed to power the kitchen and bathroom, and being in Florida an air conditioning unit is installed.
Now, let's get to the important interior details. The kitchen is complete with cook top, fridge and sink, and the couch folds out into a queen size bed with additional room for storage. The bathroom has a full sink and shower, and includes hot water and waste water disposal.
The sales price of the shipping container home is $35,000 and this includes delivery within 150 miles of Tampa, Florida. If you're outside of this range they can help you coordinate delivery anywhere in the continental US but that will be an additional cost.
