I stumbled over this rather old post because of the updates of your readers – some useful links added the comments section.

Particularly liked the Moduluxe site and the Cordell Home.

We have a series of hands on How to Build your own Shipping Container Videos available for anyone interested from an Owner Builder perspective.

First 30 minute video is here

I just came upon this forum and interested in supporting folks learn more about building with alternative materials. I’m a project manager for Moduluxe, which is a full service contractor specializing in shipping container based buildings. We’ve built several homes and buildings in Houston and have a deep knowledge of the codes/permitting process in making these homes. Feel free to visit our website http://www.moduluxe.net and make contact if you have any questions.

Cheers,
John Dang

How did you go about making sure you met code requirements, as the shipping containers are not typical uses for construction? How did the inspector view the property in regards to the city? Did you call it a modular home when sending in your plans? I am ready to buy some land and I have been studying the Shipping containers for about 2 years now. But I have not seen any one blog about the step -by-step process for procuring the right to biuld such structures in residential areas. They have done it but I have not read how they present it to he city.
I want to build in Georgia. What is your advice?

Why just because someone is using containers do people have to be so ignorant to say that they need to be green? Thats the whole problem with so called green people! If you save one tree you are still looked down upon because you didnt save two! If i work my butt off and want a 5600 sq ft home im going to build my damn home! If i want 1 car or 20 it is no concern of anyone else! I worked for it i paid for it if you dont like it i dont care!
