The communications shelters are being released through surplus sales at
military bases. I have several thy come in dozens of sizes I have sold
several to friends in Canada I have one that will fit in a pickup left
if you have an interested. It already has a bbed and heater 110 volt
with it and set up with lights it would be alright for one person maybe
two . I am in Des Moines WA.

I saw some boxes for sale at a gun show. Looked brand new. Made of Al.
very sturdy looking with lift points, windows, locking door. ladder up
the
side. This was a few years ago. I still have the brochure. I saw them in

Puyallup, WA. Also watertight and floatable it says here.
Cost $795 .

These are designed for pickup beds. Lot's of room. If you call them
let me know, I might get one.
