January 2019 – Containerly recently interviewed us to better understand the various types of people who rent our demonstration unit and the types of challenges we experienced during the Octopod build.
In our case, we do get a few parties from Airbnb however most folks find us in the media and wish to fulfill their aspirations of building their own container homes.
They often start by booking a 1 on 1 consultation, follow with a rental and then they put together a wish list of everything they would like to have in their own custom build. The Containerly folks are testing both the rental market and providing assistance with builds in exchange for access to the rental units. Definitely an out of the box approach! We wish them well in their grand endeavours and look forward to hearing about their adventures in the container world.
