Remember our post about paying to sleep in an old drain pipe? Well now next time you go to London, you can sleep in an old shipping container. Travelodge is getting their recycle on with this hotel made completely of old shipping containers. It may sound like a gimmick but besides the fact that they are reusing manufactured materials, using this method allowed them to build 25% faster, using less energy. The steel buildings are strong and apparently you'd never know you were sleeping in a shipping box. Check out SmartPlanet for the whole story and more pictures of this cool sustainable structure.

nice travelodge recycling by making a hotel out of shipping containers in london.
These are cool!
Thats one way of recycling a 40′ HC container! We use them for importing furniture but it sounds like a good idea for a bedroom. They should be well sound proofed but i would think they could get a little got in the summer! Nice work Travelodge though..

Highly helpful content. I ordinarily don’t comment content, but this time I made an exception to this rule, because I have found here a lot useful knowledge. Thank you for the helpful and important knowledge. I notice this topic increases a lot of interest, judging by the number of opinions. I look at additional issues, and most certainly I will come back often.
