While you might be able to cut corners during the construction part of the project, you have to go by the book when it comes to getting the initial paperwork for your shipping container home. 


Before you even order a shipping container, make sure you have all the necessary building code permits and planning permission from the local entities. Ensure you&#;re allowed to build a home and that a shipping container home complies with local and state policies.


If you are building a home out of a single container, you can probably assemble everything you need by yourself. You can use programs like Sketchup or Planner5D to produce basic designs for your permit application. 


If your design is more complicated with multiple containers, it&#;s probably best to work with an architect and structural engineer to ensure that the floor plan you have in mind for your shipping container house is structurally sound. 


It&#;s a good idea to find an architect who has worked with shipping containers in the past because building with them is entirely different than a typical wooden, steel, or brick building. Also keep in mind that anything you can put in a custom home, you can put in a container home.
