We Built a Firefighter Training House out of Shipping Containers!

In this video we take you on an exclusive tour of our 10-year-old fire training facility we built from 6 shipping containers! We also cover important points, like why porous building materials are a huge risk in shipping containers and how to prevent things like mold and mildew!

This structure includes 4 x 40-foot containers, a single 20-footer, and another 40-footer standing straight up and down!

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: This decade old build goes against a lot of our current building practices so we are happy to announce we got the green light to rebuild this thing and we are going to do it the right way. Stay tuned for that!

Wow! That looks like a nice setup! Definitely cheaper in cost to make that the traditional training centers. Of course in Kansas (A right to work state and not trapped by unions) the rural fire departments just find an old abandoned rural house and use it for training (after making it safe) and then just burn it to the ground when it gets too far gone to use anymore. However, I'll have to pass this on to a neighbor who is on the rfd to see what he thinks. Thanks for the video Container Guy and all of those working hard to make these awesome videos!❤

Hey man
Up here in Iraq, it kinda sucks living in a tent. Think you could send some containers this way 😅

I have a question for you, can you put a refrigerated door on the side of a refrigerated container ( 40 ft)

Do you sell blue prints and possible layouts for homes?

I'm interested in stairs to go with a 40 ft hc. (Similar to in this video, that would take you right up to the roof. So I could build a deck) Are those hard to find for sale? Do you know average costs for the stairs?

Hello, first of all great video as always🤩. Also, is there anybody that knows USA base shipping containers components manufacturers?. Even if they more expensive than getting from china is fine.

I wish other communities would pay attention to this the video. Fire departments are draining communities out of taxpayer funds spending money on multi million dollar fire houses multi million dollar training facilities, million dollar fire trucks it is absurd. Sadly, volunteer fire departments used to be the hub of communities now they are the bane of communities with their outlandish play for political pay expenditures.

Mini but not all fire departments can barely exist, because of regulations often pushed through by the unions to benefit themselves as opposed to supporting the people. They actually serve. Unions today believe they . are to be served not the communities should be served. That’s the truth. Instead of paying one firefighter $100, 000 a year why not get 10 volunteers to be offered a $10, 000 tax depreciation on their property tax bill for joining the fire department. Oh wait then the politicians couldn’t control the vote…
