25 shipping container homes from 7 manufacturers, from €13,650. Starting price, floor area and delivery time for every model.
A container home reuses steel shipping containers, usually 20 ft or 40 ft, as its structure. The manufacturer cuts, reinforces, insulates and fits them out in the factory; on site they sit on a foundation and are connected to water, power and drainage.
To live in one legally, the home needs planning permission and building regulations approval like any new dwelling. Without it, a container counts as an outbuilding or temporary structure.
