I just leveled mine using bottle jacks, The guy that sold it to me advised me to make the wall end 2 inches higher than the door end in case there’s any spillage in there it won’t pool,it will run out. I use a string level to accomplish that.

The movement of the floor jack is why I switched to bottle jacks for this kind of work. There is to large a risk of something going wrong above a few inches. Nice job on creating real corner supports because you'll never know how much weight you'll put in the container.

I might be buying a 20’ high cube for a tiny house this year. It was great to see how you did that “in person” vs reading how to. Curious how to secure these containers to the ground as I will be living in a tornado area.

I use a 20 foot container to store a Kubota BX-25D with a front blower. With the temperature variations, I had to add ventilation vents to avoid excessive condensation. Without this additional ventilation, the ceiling of the container would be covered with frost when the temperature dropped. I installed a Vortex Powerfans VTX400 172 CFM Fan, connected to a BN-LINK Digital Wall Countdown Timer with presets at 5-15-30-60 minutes, 2-4 hours, to control fan shutdown.

Nice work Paul. I like the jack stand safety measure. If you have a tractor I would shave the dirt first so the container is not too high on blocks and perhaps would make somewhat level transition on the front for a ramp too.

Those concrete masonry units are a bad choice to support a container as they are not reinforced and will crack easily. A sonotube with a bigfoot form for a footing sized for the load would have been the better choice.

Is blocking under all 4 corners ok for a long term ? Or is that just short term ? Im looking at more than 1 for long term and never moving them. I was thinking about compacting rock into clay ground and then using block or railroad ties on top of that

They only need to be supported under each corner. You also need to have at least 6 inches between the container bottom and ground for airflow or it will sweat inside. Thanks for watching

8500 lbs are about 4 ton, isn't that? I' m from Argentine, so we use kilograms here. My brother told me that we will need at least one of five ton. Then I asked because mi idea was similar to yours, leveling one side at a time it's possible in this way. Thankyou!!

Why dont you level the ground a bit rather than jack the thing up three feet? I dont mean to make a fuss, but there's no way I would want to work in a container that is that high on one side, let alone drive a tractor into it for storage.
@ProjectsWithPaul
@ProjectsWithPaul 3 ай бұрын
Well there are several reasons, the amount of dirt needed would be astronomical, it would need to be put in in lifts and compacted with heavy equipment, there isn't enough room between the container and the property line for the amount of slope it would need to not cave in. The blocks were recommended by the container company and it is very solid going 3 years now. Thanks for watching.
