Not a good idea unless the shipping containers are placed on high ground with no chance of ever being in a flood.

During tropical storm Irene, I watched as the flood waters raised two containers and they floated down main street. One finally hit a telephone pole. The other ended up in someone’s backyard.

The shipping containers are too lightweight.

It sounds like a good idea living in the shipping container, but I like to live in the house, mobile home is suited to people who love traveling
