In this episode how to build a shipping container home we will build out the first bathroom for the shipping container house. We will go over the egress challenges of placing a bathroom in a space that is just 7-feet wide and how those design challenges influenced product selection.

Buying the Shipping Containers: We purchased one trip condition hi-cube containers. California requires that shipping containers used for homes have documentation showing that have not had toxic or radioactive materials in them. This normally means that you need one trip condition containers with appropriate certificates. I bought my containers from https://www.containerdiscounts.com/shipping-containers-for-sale-home-made-modern and paid $4800 each for the 40-foot hi-cube containers and $3250 for the 20-foot hi-cube container. Hi-cube containers are a foot taller than typical shipping containers.

this project was made possible due to sponsorship from The Home Depot
