If you are already lucky enough to have built your own and/or already live in one, you'll know these benefits first hand and will have experienced them for yourself.<br>Much cheaper than conventional building methods of timber-framed buildings, and brick and mortar buildings, used containers are modular, flexible in design (and can be made to look absolutely beautiful!), durable, eco-friendly, and just an all-round winner when it comes to building your own home.<br>Over the next few paragraphs I'm going to outline some of the benefits of living in used shipping containers.<br><br>Economical to build...<br><br>Although the price of containers is currently on the rise (due to various factory closures in China during 2009 and early 2010), you can still pick up a fairly good bargain. As the global recession starts to ebb and global trade routes begin to get busier again, the production of shipping containers will increase also. You'll start to see container prices start to dip again, or at the very least remain stable.<br>You can currently pick up a used container for around $1,500USD. That's a base price of $1,500USD for 305sq feet of floorspace. Not bad when you compare it to the price of more traditional forms of construction.<br><br>So to conclude this point, used container homes are much more economical to build than more conventional building methods.<br>Eco-Friendly (Green Living)<br>So how green can shipping container living be?<br>The answer: They can be as green as you want them to be.<br>http://build-a-container-home.plus101.com/
