Coming up next on Container Masters
Well, I think we have developed a bond
Hey, Jim
I'd probably be running NASA
You said we have a problem
He cannot bring the home legally into the state of California
I'm thinking we take this opportunity and go do some sightseeing
There are over 140 million shipping containers in the world
The vast majority of these remain idle and unused
Jim Russell working with a network of specialty builders
Is on a mission to change this
One container at a time
I love it
This has been awesome
Together they repurpose, upcycle
And give these incredibly strong building blocks a second life
They are Container Masters
Hey, welcome to Pearl's Home
I know it doesn't look like much yet
But this container is going to become a beautiful home
And we're taking this to California
Yep, we're heading back to California
For the second time this year
Pearl is a wonderful lady
We met her daughter Margaret down there
Who runs the ranch
They have a beautiful setup down there
And I can't wait to get this unit delivered
Well, we just pulled up to Pearl's site
Here in beautiful California
On a horse ranch
And it's beautiful
It's been a long day
We've been up since three this morning
But we're ready to look at this site
And meet the homeowner and her daughter
To talk details
Oh, that's all right
How are you?
Hi, I'm Margaret Wintercorn
And I'd like to welcome Container Masters
To Hunter Lane Equestrian Center
Well, thanks for meeting us here
And thanks for showing us around
Yeah, definitely
It's a beautiful place
The housing really, it's either going to be hers
I told her she's going to like it
So one of the guys, the ranch hands
Has been working on this ranch for 25 years
Wow, that's a long time
And yeah, we're trying to upgrade his situation as well
So it's really
The original thought was it would be for him
Okay
So unless my mom loves it too much
And then she'll just have to get another one
I have a mule
She's real funny looking
You know what, I have a thing with mules
When we visited Pearl's daughter Margaret
In California
I got to see a really cool
Brand new colt
I love this
How are you?
Yeah, you're so sweet
Gordo, how are you?
Yeah, that funny brown color around his eyes
His whole body is going to be that color
You got teeth, don't you?
He does have teeth
And it does hurt when he bites
Oh yeah, he can bite
You're going to scratch my back?
I'll scratch yours?
Yeah, if you were a horse he would be
Oh, he likes that
Yeah, he does
Well, I think we have developed a bond
I really do
Yeah, you want to be a mascot for Container Masters, huh?
Is that a yes?
Once again, Jim finds a new friend
I like the way he's got to spread his front legs to get down
Yeah, because they're growing so fast
Yeah, that is so funny
Hey, Jim
Safety first
We always take care of our workers too
And when they get in trouble, we make them wear a safety cone on their head
If it's a safety issue
Yeah, that could be a new safety policy for you
Cones?
Yeah, we make them strap a cone to their head
To let everybody else know they're kind of a danger
Margaret seems a bit uncertain of Container Masters' safety protocols
So what they're going to do
They're going to wear this safety cone
Around their neck
See, and it's one size fits all here
Like this
It doesn't fall off
They can beat it around
And I tell you what
See, maybe do a little dance
It's a good reminder to be safe
But this cone right here represents
If somebody is screwed up
And that they're a hazard to Container Masters
And stay away from them
Until they get themselves back in check
I think once you get this out of here
It'll open up a whole new world for you
And it'll be a lot bigger pad site
Yeah, I think it's
This is actually pretty big
We own everything this way
Cause that's the ranch right there
Right
I guess the question we had for your mom
Is she wasn't 100% sure
Which side the sewer came in on
I think it comes in the back over here
Okay, that's what she had thought too
Cause there's
This is some
Amateur hour plumbing
Okay, yeah
After a successful site visit
Jim and Robert head back to the shop
With plans to get started
The next day on their home
Back at the shop
We're here today
Working on Pearl's home
Jay's got the ceiling going in
He's taking it in there right now
Hayden's working on the exterior metal
This is a beautiful home
One of my favorite homes
That we've ever done
I'm excited for Pearl
And for her daughter Margaret
To walk inside this the first time
In two to three weeks
This baby will be headed to California
We're just finishing
Putting the flashing
And the window trim
Around Pearl's house
Then we can get the wall metal on
And as soon as that's done
The outside will be done
The container master's team
Is busy finishing up the container
Built for Pearl
Hey Jay, this barn wood wall
Is actually one of my more
More of the favorite ones
With these chips of white in there
Yeah, you know how long it took me
To glue all those little white chips on there
Well, after looking at your time card
I'm beginning to wonder
I think that's a full week
We'll say it was a full week
Yeah, that's all it took me
Just a week
It doesn't take long
For Jay to become distracted
If I wasn't here doing what I love
Doing Robert
I got to thinking
I'd probably
Be running NASA
That'd be the end of the space program
I'd probably be the director of NASA
Hey Jay, I was going to ask you
What you thought the worst thing
In your life you'd ever done
The worst mistake you'd ever made
But I don't think anything would even top
You wanting to be in charge of NASA
I think if Jay was in charge of NASA
I think it would go well for a couple of years at least
I can't see Jay
Running NASA
Because the guy can't even drive the speed limit
Down the highway
Let alone be in charge of flying the space shuttle
If he was in charge of NASA
It'd just be bad news
If Jay became the head of NASA
They would have to change the acronym
To mean
Not a safe agency
What do you think you would have done
If you wouldn't have come here
To Container Masters
Hmm
I don't know
Probably work for NASA or something
Yeah boy
Right now
I'm putting my paint suit on
So I don't get overspray all over me
Hold on
We're going to make this official
Official
There we go see
We're on the same wavelength here
There you go
Now you're official
You can actually
I told you I was in line for that NASA job
Yes you are Jay
Yes you are
We're headed back to California
We love California
It's a great state
Beautiful sunshine
Got the ocean thing going for it
And it's got Pearl
That's probably the best thing in California
And Pearl we're getting ready to bring a home to you
It's leaving the shop today
It's going to be put on the trailer
And it's headed your way
To your beautiful location
Sunny California
Yeah
We can just literally walk right past
So what we're doing is we're out here
At Pearl's site
The home is on its way
We flew out here in advance
We've already been out here earlier
So we're doing the second site visit now
To make sure we can get in
We're going to actually take the unit
Through these pens
The truck with the trailer and the home
Has to come literally through the pens
Where these horses are
To get it to the site
So as you can see
There's a whole bunch of fencing
In certain areas
That is going to have to be moved
Right now we're trying to evaluate
The best way to do this
So definitely go the other side
Not the way we walked
Margaret's showing us the best route
Into the facility
Obviously when you're delivering
20,000 pound home
Driving through here
With all these horses around
You've got to be careful
And keep in mind the horses
And their well-being
As you're getting it in here
You don't want to spook the horses
And cause any issues or stress there
The biggest snag we've run into right now
Is our driver who has the home
Is hung up on the border
And does not have his permits for California
Which quite frankly
That should have been done in advance
He cannot bring the home legally
Into the state of California
So he's 4 hours away
Sitting over across the border from California
And he's going to try and pull the permits
Monday morning
That's assuming he can get the permits
They may give him trouble
But we may not be able to bring the home in
On our due date
Without permits
Pearl's home is stuck across the border
And delivery is at a standstill
So here's the pad site right here
Now here's good news
It looks like they've got all the footings in
They've got the steel plates on top of there
So there's 6 footings here
They appear to be in the right spot for the home
It looks like we're going to be able to drive
Straight down through on this side
And literally back up right into here
Into this area
And the crane is going to pick the home up
And just set it right on top
Of these piers
Right here
This place
This home
In this setting
In this weather
What else do you want
Oh my gosh
Thunderstorms start tonight
And go all the way through tomorrow
Yeah
Huge massive
Look at that
Sunny all the way through
No storms
I had him
He was freaked out for a minute
For 2 seconds I had him
You know guys
I'm thinking we take this opportunity
And go do some sightseeing
That's a good idea
What do you think about that
Well we got the whole rest of the day
We talked to someone on the plane
They said we're not far from the southern edge
Of some of the redwood forest
That's a good idea
There's vineyards all around
I mean
You know every once in a while
Every once in a while
Jay does come up with a very very valid point
Did you use them all up for the week
That was my quota for the week
So
Well it's still fresh
Let's do it
Let's get out here and sightsee
We're in California
I love vineyards
And vineyards love you Jay
I don't know what your problem is
But I bet it's hard to pronounce
The Container Masters crew enjoy a rare day off
Welcome to Jay's world
This is big enough
To probably put about a dozen people
1
2
3
4
738
739
740
Woo
I tell you what
I just got my shoes and socks back on
I'm counting all that
Hey train wreck
This is not your station
Jay is like a glow stick
I wanna snap him
Shake the heck out of him
Until the light comes on
Jay I tell you what though
You're talking about those
Muddy patches that are on the way
Keep enough speed to get through there
Let's keep one thing in mind
He is bringing this in in reverse
He is he's backing it in
I'm pulling nose in
So he's backing this thing in reverse with speed
He says he can do it
He said he'd be here at 730
He did he said he'd be here on time
Fool me once shame on you
Well you know the rest
There's two things that were very important to happen today
Number one was that the home arrive on site
Which it has
Number two is to get through the horse
These horse pens
All the way through the other side of the pad site
If we accomplish those two things today
Then Pearl will get her home
We've got a crane on the way
I don't anticipate any problem with the crane
The crane has a pretty simple route in
They're literally gonna pick the home up off the trailer
And set it down on the pad site
The biggest deal right now
Is getting the home through this road
Which is simple
Looks pretty simple
The hard part is through the horse pens
That's my concern
That's the one area that could go wrong
One anxious horse
Could cause a domino effect
Among the entire group
Horses are getting upset here
This is a little dicey
Because they are getting upset
Boy that thing is making some noise
With tensions high
The container home
Is maneuvered through the horse pens
Foot by foot
With dozens of nervous horses running around
The situation could easily go
From bad to worse
That horse does not like it
Looks like he's got it
Through this hole here
You're ok here
He's ok
It's a tight squeeze
Through the last remaining gate
This is right now
This is our tightest spot here
Right here is the toughest spot
There's some mud underneath him
He's got a tight quarter to get through here
Let's see what happens
Lyle good job
You did it
We got the home
It's in the spot
Where we need you to have it
Which is great
Obviously it's not on the pad side
But that's not your concern
We got a crane to come in
Pick this baby up
Put it down
You backed through
Every single one of those horse paddocks
And you didn't have an issue whatsoever
And when we got to our worst spot
All you did was tell me what you did to get through that
Four wheel drive
Got over the hump
All right
Well job well done
So right now here's the deal
The crane is on location
They're right nearby
But we've run into a major issue
The crane cannot get down
The crane is on the road
That we wanted them to come in at
Just when things were looking up
The crane operator is having trouble
Getting into the pad side
Without the crane
This delivery is dead on arrival
We've got Pearl here
I finally got to meet Pearl
It's been a long time
Let's go see your house
He is a little late
A little late
All right
Hey so the good deal is
The crane is in position
It made it down the street
This way came a different route
It's here
We're putting the pads down on it
This thing is gonna pick up Pearl's home
And move it over here in just a matter of minutes
With the crane finally in position
The team prepares for liftoff
Ask Jay if he can operate a crane
Because he said he's gonna go to work for NASA one day
If he can't operate a crane
He ain't got no chance
I'd like to grab a hold of the crane
And ride it up
It'd be like Cirque de Soleil
If I like stuck a wrist and an arm
And like an ankle in one
I'd do like Cirque de Soleil
And be like spiraling up and down
I think you're confusing Cirque de Soleil
With Cirque de Sojay
Pearl, your home is now home
Now here's what we're gonna do
Let me get it steady
It still has the labels on it
Well, we just bought it today
Make it
You did it
You put it all together
As far as the colors, the combinations, everything
I love it
I mean, we've had people that have popped their head in
And said this is one of the prettiest
They love it
So, I mean, you got your full-size appliances
Like you wanted your microwave, your range here
Ingenious refrigerator
What does that mean, ingenious refrigerator?
Well, we name our refrigerators
After all of our clients
The terrain
And I love this
It's reflecting
That's why it looks so fancy
The shower head is reflecting all the corrugated metal
Because of the surfaces
Okay, this is
Okay, so I have to put a shower curtain
Or something up
Let's see, I'm going upstairs
All right, take your time
Is the barn door upstairs, Jay?
It is
So there's a barn door underneath that blanket
That's going to go here
So this is the bedroom
And this fits the queen bed
It'll fit a queen
It'll fit a king, I think
Yeah, almost a king
It'll almost fit a king
It'll fit a queen and have, I don't know
Five, six inches on each side
Look at your closet
Oh, closet
Isn't that neat
It is yours
But you're going to have some people
Live here, the ranch hands
Yeah
So you have an arrangement
With the people that work for you
And you're actually providing them housing
As part of their employment, is that correct?
Yeah, it's, you know, a tradition, sort of
In the farms, you know
And he's been here 25 years
Wow
So, and he's very valuable
He knows where everything is
No, we don't
So tell me, Pearl
Your home
I know you're not going to be living in it
You've got it specifically for your ranch
But it's here, it's in place
Are you happy?
Yes
Good
Take care of the people that work for you
And they'll take care of you
Pearl showed us a great example of this
She's taking care of an employee
That's worked over 25 years on her ranch
By giving him and his family
A new, beautiful container home
To live in
Many workers are underappreciated
And there's no reason for this
Compliments and encouragement
Are free and easy to give
If you make it a habit
The results will amaze you
Friends for life
That's the way it is right there
That's what we do
Container masters
We make friends with the animals
Kind of like Dr. Seuss, right?
This goes here, right?
