In this video we cover how to install drywall in a shipping container home as well as a few key tips along the way. It is important to verify building requirements with your local building department. In our build we used 1/2 inch drywall on the walls and 5/8 inch drywall on the ceiling. Leave a comment if there is anything specific that you would like us to cover in detail in a future video.
