“CargoHome. The firm utilizes the slogans “Contain yourself” and “Think. Within the box” to promote its stylish and extremely useful tiny homes. They are all constructed from shipping containers, or “one-trippers,” which are delivered from China with little payload before being sold. While the CargoHome tiny homes lack wheels, unlike the majority of the others we’ve talked about, they are nonetheless simple to transport if you have the correct trailer.
One of the perks of using a container for a home, according to CargoHome, is portability. The others include their reasonably low cost, dependability, simplistic design, and environmental friendliness, which may be made off-grid if you so choose and have the money.
