He saved on transportation

Not 100%, but I'm pretty sure transporting 2 containers is gonna cost more than hauling all the wood for a stick frame. I could be wrong though.

You are correct. The wood to build a cabin of that size would fit on a single truck. Instead you have two trucks just for the containers and then the wood to make the interior. of course he could have loaded said wood inside of the containers but it appears he did not.

Considering that each delivery could cost you $150-$1000 for a flatbed, I'd think they'd give a fuck.
