But for a tack and feed room make sure you get some windows put in for air flow. I have seen where some people make a small house and office's out of them, really cool. There's a few places you can buy the container's with windows already in stalled.

Extreme Veteran Posts: 403 Location: Armuchee, GA, NW section of Ga	We have had one for a few years now that we use for all our hay storage. By not keeping hay in the barn, therefore not a fire risk, our insurance is cheaper. I fill it up each year with baled hay, no problems at all.

Off the Wall Wacky Posts: 2981 Location: Louisiana	My mom uses a big one for hay storage away from her barn. My inlaws have a smaller one that they use for a tack and feed room next to their small barn. They both seem to work great. I believe both are just up on cinderblocks.
