Hope those plastics won't degrade over time and start emitting dangerous stuffs? Have they considered whether there are health implications or not?

It’s 3 40 foot containers for a 2 bedroom, 2 bath. Master bedroom and a smaller bedroom. I don’t want the house too big so I can easily clean it myself.

Bro, you will spend more.
Buying containers
Then haulage (trailer that will move them site and crane than will position them)

Should be cheaper but not actually cheaper in Nigeria.. buying the container, trailer trips and crane logistics are the cost-incurring aspect...


Can you give me an estimate?

Oga, your container house will be hot O. Think and calculate again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvUI3-0QkI0
In Europe and other cold countries, container house is a good idea. They insulate the inner walls with foam and plywood. That keeps the inside warm when the weather is cold outside.
In Nigeria, and Africa that is already hot, insulations will keep the inside HOTTER when the weather is already hot outside.
You'd need powerful AC inside to cool the house down on a hot day.
Whenever you search YouTube for "container home" you will always see America, Europe and other COLD countries. You won't see hot Africa.

Mr man there is nothing in this world the LORD can not do!

use your brains and think deeply on this.
for those of you that keeps saying container house will be hot and hotter during the day in Africa and beyond that's why its only been built in cooler climes like Europe.

then i will prove you wrong because there is nothing the LORD can not do!

all you have to do is think.

this is the way to excape the heat from container,
and for the young man planning to build a container house this is it.

reason with your heads to see that since they impute foams and plywood inside the container just to regulate and cool the heats.

why not you still apply that same foam and plywood in the outer body of the container.

that is to say make it the two sides and lets see if heat will be found there.

you all just needs to be creative enough.

am very sure any white folks reading this will want to try this out to see the difference.

this is the first time i will be sharing my secret out to the general public,

that's how it should be!

in anyways you all should try vote for an Igbo man to be our next president come 2023.
and you guys will be surprised we all Nigerians will even be building floating houses in seas and rivers across the nation.

am a typical Igbo man and had it been we rule this country by now we would have been selling to the whole world anti covid-19 medicine.

even the Chinese will bow before us!

and here we are been ruled by a Fulani who cant even pronounce his name well.

but i still find wisdom in this because the LORD uses stupid things to de-value and to shame the wise.

we have good learned professors and engineers,
even autopilot mechanical practisionals and high profile top business moguls.

but still yet we all are been ruled by someone who does not even know how to write well.

just as i have said here lets just plan the way forward and get rid of this madness.

if you want this APC government to be removed under a month i still got secret plans to share

but only to the serious folks and who are into politics.

i don't even mind if PDP can employ me for this great a task

this is my email if you need my top secret plans,
doctorherbal366@gmail.com

this plans can recoup all our losses.

and also if you are in APC too i can share with you top wicked plans that will make APC to remain in power forever.

i mean to rule this country forever!

the thing is am no political thug!

but am just a little guru who thinks the unimaginable about the future

#we move!

You can spray the inside of the container with a foam (can’t remember the name) and then clad it. I will spray, clad and roof the ceiling to prevent heat. I will also have 4 powerful AC’s running on solar energy 24/7 to keep out the heat. 2 in the morning/afternoon, the other two at night cheesy cheesy grin
I've seen similar designs on YouTube.

Paint the outside white, to reflect as much heat as possible and add a few layers of insulation.

Someone would need to try it out to fully know whether it can be conducive in this environment.

Re: Man Builds House With 14,800 Plastic Bottles In Kaduna (pics) by Segzy19: 11:00pm On Jan 26, 2021
I can't give you an estimate but I know that the containers are costly. You will surely spend 100s of thousand per container. You get to buy the containers in bulk at the port (Apapa, if you are in Lagos) or some abandoned ones used at construction work camp site

You buy the containers, then the onus of moving it to your location is on you.

You will need plenty containers to build your structure, depending on what you wanna build. Trailer will charge you haulage fee, depending on the distance (within the state or outside the state where you bought he containers)

You will rent cranes to load the containers on the truck and also need a crane waiting to unload the containers at the site where you want to use it.

Containers are not what you can just push around. So you better get you site and other structures ready so that the offloading crane will just help you place the containers where you will need them at once.

You will need crane to use during the construction phase to move or adjust the containers to the positions you want them on the structure you are building.

That's just for moving and handling of the containers.

Then working on the container
Cutting, Welding and grinding work
Installimg powerwith proper insulation
Flooring
Wall padding and sound proofing
Plumbing (water, drainage, toilet, bath)

Of course you will buy the land to place the containers on

Every other thing you will need for a proper house except maybe roofing sha...

Just do your proper cost analysis and compare to see which one will pay you properly considering all factors.

It is a great risk..
In Lagos, there are many shop owners who use metal for their shops. What I notice is that it is always hot inside.
Also, all those Julius Berger, Hi-tech, Cappa and D'alberto construction companies, they use container office as well. And with all their engineering knowledge, they have to put heavy AC inside. Even the ones painted white.
THEY do it because it's a temporary structure that they can easily transport to another building site.
What makes your design any better than theirs?
Test the waters first before committing your money to risk.
The northern part of Nigeria used to use clay/mud soil for local house and the house is cool inside.
That means you too must use a sand/silicon based material for your own house to be cool inside. Hence Cement that we widely use.
We used to use clay pot to store water in village and the water is cool.
Plastic or metal containers make the water hot.
Silicon is your best friend.
