Shipping container homes are not always cheaper to build than traditional stick-built homes, but they can be.
There are a large number of variables that influence project cost, such as location, size, design, and interior finishes.
It can last as long as possible and would outlast traditional houses. They are built with a tough exterior that can hold up to hurricanes and earthquakes. You can stack ten containers on each other, and the containers won’t lose its strength.

Shipping containers are almost always constructed from steel, which is an alloy of iron, and are therefore susceptible to rust. Marine grade steel is used with anti-corrosive properties, but due to the harsh environments that containers encounter, rust will eventually, inevitably occur.
The lifespan of a shipping container home varies depending largely on the environment in which it is located. Generally speaking, though, a home built from used shipping containers should last about 15 years without any major maintenance, and one built using new containers should last about 25 years.
