Bought myself a house trailer

Sandtrap · January 30, 2016, 10:07:59 AM

The house part of it is a tad decayed. Which is why I'm going to have some fun demolishing it. But the actual trailer frame is in perfect condition. Once I've cleared that out I can build my house on top of it. Gonna start working in it soon, probably before spring arrives.

Got it for 300 bucks in cash and 300 worth of manual labour for a total of 600.

Trailer's 40 feet long, 14 feet wide. I'll see if I can get some pics for fun a little bit later.

Are you gonna live in it once it's finished?

People give trailers home owners so much chit, but I've seen some pretty nice once around here. Those are all double wide though.

Na. I've already got the motor home for that.

I wouldn't exactly say tiny. 40 feet long and 14 feet wide is more space than I know what to do with. But it borrows the same concept as a micro house.

Nice way to avoid taxes, too.

Yep, that's the purpose of it.
