Trailers are like shipping containers so I felt this site would offer a new view on what one could make a trailer look like.

That actually seems like it'd be good for like a weekend place as a lake house or "cabin" in the mountains. Raise the deck floor and secure it while your gone.

this will seem like over kill in a big way, however it also shows what you can do with them.

it shows how flexable these are and what one can do I here you can buy them prity cheep.

I also remember reading in Home Power Magazine about a man who had power in his trailer. Meaning solar collectors and batteries and when he went to his cabin the trailer became part of the house and was it's electrical source.

Your trailer could become more then an escapte Pod it could become a Power wagon and bedroom for a larger structure. So if anyone else found theat container it would be useless to them it would seem more like a uncompleted build.

For those living in the Toronto area, a local company does these conversions. They have a 'display' model on Hwy11 just south of Gravenhurst on the east side of the highway. Cool looking.
I used to store my truck in a rented unit and they were very dry inside.
