Shipping Container home. - bigpaul - 31 August 2012

It's disgusting that they're even considering putting him out on the street instead of letting him live in a fully converted, perfectly habitable structure. Absolute insanity

Can't start a trend. Everyone would do it and the housing market would collapse and the whole stack of cards would come down.

the housing market is stagnant now so it dont make a lot of difference really. i am seeing properties on the internet that have been up for sale for 8, 12 and sometimes 18 months, they just arent selling.

I believe if he mounts it onto a trailer they may not have the authority to order its removal as its simply a parked up trailer with unkown contents ??

Still considering doing this when I can offload the pile of bricks I exist in.
£4000 for two refurbished 40' container delivered to site.
(I'll weld them together and convert them myself).
£80K for 4 acres of woodland I've got my eye on (complete with little lake and feeder stream).
£200 to dig up the approach road afterwards.
Not forgetting a 'small' pack of wolves to patrol it (if only).
Then let some jobs worth come knocking on my door.
Good fertilizer I'm thinking.
