In this video I visit a shipping container yard to choose a shipping container to convert for my tiny house style home office. When converting a shipping container there are a number of basic considerations you need to consider when selecting the container to convert. Shipping container conversions rely on containers to be in good condition with straight surfaces and without excessive rust. Container homes and tiny houses made from shipping containers make for really simple to build structures with a lot of longevity. Prior to starting this series I didn't know how to convert a shipping container, but now I see the merits in a converted shipping container for a home office, tiny house, or larger shipping container homes.
I didn't use any tiny house plans to build this container conversion, and all of my research came from fellow KZfaq videos on shipping container conversions, so whilst I don't suggest you copy exactly how I'm converting my container I think it forms the basis for a fairly decent conversion.
In the next video I'll be moving the shipping container on to my property so that I can level the shipping container, cut openings in the container for doors and windows, and begin the serious work.
