When people think of tiny homes, they likely don’t think of a storage container. But a large, metal crate is the perfect solution for a cost-effective, tiny home.
This red storage container may look average from the outside, but it’s far from average inside.
A storage container like this one is a great option for a tiny home. They usually cost $1800 – $5000 depending on their size. They are easy to come by, as well, as containers that are shipped to their destinations are usually too costly to ship back.
What’s more, these containers are eco-friendly, as they are re-purposed into homes. They are also for the most part, indestructible. Storage container tiny homes can handle more than typical American houses. They are built to handle heavy loads, severe climate conditions, and crane maneuvering. Containers can also be stacked to form multi-story homes.
