Aside from little and cozy houses, hotels can also be built using used shipping containers. Did you know that the first hotel made up of used shipping containers was first build in 2008 in Uxbridge, West London? According to the builders and developers of this hotel. They used 86 used shipping containers to build the hotel and the construction was 25% faster and 10% cheaper than the cost of building a new hotel made of traditional construction materials.
I had some seedling mix and empty salad containers, milk containers waiting to be recycled. I also don't have as much space in m house to start seeds. As a bonus this method uses zero electricity.

As the Atlantic end of the Panama Canal, Colon is also a big shipping port. Container ships that can not transit the Canal will offload their cargo here. It will then travel across Panama by rail and be reloaded at Panama City on the Pacific side.

Some shipping containers have been utilised as protection for pedestrians while demolition work is carried out nearby.
Large container ship at New Jersey dock across river from Philadelphia loaded with 14 x 7 array of neatly stacked cargo boxes on stern.
26x16x6 inches and 34 quart capacity, this is Container #1. What the hell is the purpose you ask? The idea that started in my head had a single focus but in today’s world where the price of food may soon go thru the friggin roof, thanks to Obama’s Gestapo Regime, it now has become a two-fold purpose. But that’s another story for another time.
The goat is to build up a food supply for six months that when augmented with fresh fish, crabs and oysters I would have to come to port for only fuel, water or to pump out the holding tanks. This is the first of a planned 10 containers of dry goods. I have placed a few can good items in this one, but the rest of the containers will only hold dry goods.
I have no immediate plans for a trip, but my plans do put me headed to Key West by this time next year. So to ease the pain of supplying the boat right at the last moment when money may be tight and probably will be, I want to pack one of these a month.
Each one will vary in contents and strategically planned so that I don’t have to open them all at once. Each one of them will be labeled with the contents and indexed in a master file for ease of locating specific items. At this time next year I estimate the cost to have built this food stock to be appx. $800-1000. These containers are in addition to the canned meat and veggies that I also will be stocking, as they don’t need to be stored dry.
Inside of each container is a can of moisture control and each container is sealed close to airtight.
I would like to be able to sail to the Caribbean Islands and not have to ever tie to the dock if I so choose. Or at least have the ability to do so for six months. That is the ultimate goal.
Just on a side note…so as it doesn’t come as a big surprise to anyone. Everyone should have food stores. The possibility of needing them in the near future is very real.
So don’t say I didn’t tell you so.
