Like the total length from tip of bumper to back of vehicle? Or just the bumper? In this case, what is a box?

Tip to end, I need to know how much space that takes to fit length wise

I would account for 15' on the safe side, I could barely fit one backed onto a 12' trailer with a tough country bumper on it. The gate rubbed it the whole way. This was a 2015 or 2016 model

Thanks, what I was worries about, now I just have to figure out if the extra 4’ is worth the hassle of a 40’ vs just rolling with 2- 20fters (one living one storage)

Thanks Ramball

I want to hear more about the containers. Thinking about doing the same. You building them out yourself or did you find a place that does them for a reasonable price?

My self. This will be my second. Easy to do if you can weld. Weld in 2x2 square tubing frame for windows and door(can weld commercial door frame direct), rest is just normal framing.

If you cant weld, there are few places you can buy pre-installed. For a decent price.

If you have instragram search #containerhomes #tinyhomes,shocking how cool you can make them


Moving can be an issue, easy to move 20’, 40’ basically requires CDL though

saw one where a guy put 2x 20'ers side by side and cut an opening between the two, sealed up and installed a door. Made out living quarters (bunks, kitchen, dining area) out of all of one, used about 2/3-3/4 of the other for storage for a couple of 4 wheelers and enclosed the back portion (that was connected to full one) and used as a bath room with installed toilet, sink & shower (probably 6 foot of the 2nd container leaving 15+/- for storage).

Hey BoBo, how wide are they inside and what is the interior height? Thinking of selling my cargo trailer that we camp in and going this route

I built out an 40’ high cube container. I framed out living quarters with a bathroom and everything on the front 27’. That left 13’ for me to park my ranger crew in the back. Awesome setup and air tight. My ranger never sits outside and I don’t have to trailer it all the time. I can answer any questions that anyone has for the most part. It’s not as hard as it looks. Just time consuming with great rewards after it’s done. up
