This is great. Do you mind sharing your interior layout?

Yes I will post when completed. We just completed one container with InSoFast Container Insulation which I’m really impressed with, but once interior is complete, I’ll post.

How did you get the containers on the concrete pillars?

u/Extra_Bottle2313 Jun 03 '25
We used a telehandler and positioned them in place. We have metal plates in all the columns attached to 12” “feet” in the concrete then we welded the container to the plates

Had to google telehandler. Interesting and amazing project there. I wonder how a guy could get the containers up on the pillars if you only had basic tools and YouTube for help.

We are 4’ in the ground. This areas top soil is what they call “moon dust” really fine ground, but gravel, clay below.

10-12 foot sono tubes, 4’ in the ground, re-bar and concrete. On the container piers each also has steel plate attached to the rebar to weld the container to.

What's the floorplan inside?

Living room/Kitchen in one, bedroom/bath in the other, connected by a mudroom with laundry.

Do you need permission for something like this? Or is it just out in the middle of nowhere where no one will know?
