We have a few 40x10x8.5 containers for storage. Do you suppose that the dimensions are erroneous? We’ve seen 20x10x8.5’s.
Way too big and fancy. I lived in one of those “For $5 we can ship it anywhere” Postal Service boxes. Three bedrooms and two baths. I used an envelope for a garage.
thank you, that's what i thought... 10X20 or 10X40 is what seen/used
Katrina cottages look prettier...
The nice aspect of those things is that you can configure them according to your requirements and tastes. Mr. Sg has already coated the roofs with a silver-colored sealing compound and is in the process of painting the sides white in order to create a backdrop that emphasizes the color of the shrubs and trees. Next couple of steps involve creating man-doors and laying tile on the floors.
cool... pls post pics sometime
Still in formative stages (only one container painted white but that’s the one near the rear deck he built which really looks good.) Will post photos of 6x8 greenhouse he erected and the stuff he’s growing inside it. Peripherally, I just discovered yesterday that collards need frost to make them sweet. The greenhouse interior is humid and much warmer than the outside temperature. Arrrggghhh! Anyway, will PM you to profile page when I post photos. Thx for your interest.
welcome and thx...
I was being snarky about Obama and all his Green zealots.
I wouldn’t want to live in an 8x12 in Afghanistan either. (Though I am greatful to those who did. Thanks for your service.)
If you goal is cheap domestic housing then stick with single wide mobile homes and use the storage crates for storage.
Oops...sorry.;-)
I was a zoomie, so most of my deployments were in billeting, sometimes in a tent. We had it much better than the Army or the Marines.

Sounds like a decent garage. I’d take one.
