Don’t use wood, as it’s incredibly prone to weathering, rot and can become vulnerable to infestation. You can use wood to decorate the inside of your bunker, but make sure you keep it clean.

Shipping container bunkers can be spacious and cost-effective. However, you won’t be able to customize your layout as much. Shipping containers would also need to be reinforced as shipping containers aren’t built to be buried.

Just like when you’re building a house, you first should develop a blueprint of your underground bunker. However, unlike a home, you’re not building for luxury, but rather for safety and security.

After you’ve picked where you want to build your bunker, measure the area you have to work with (away from the utility lines, trees and bodies of water). From there, you’ll get a sense of how you can design your blueprint.

Likewise, you need to avoid digging into any utility lines. If you called 811, you’d already know exactly where the utilities are located. Avoid digging on top or with 18-24″ on all sides of the utility line. If you can’t avoid them, then you may need to reconsider where exactly you build your bunker.

Try to avoid digging in a place that is surrounded by trees and vegetation. Trenching near trees means that you’ll be dealing with a complicated web of roots that’ll be difficult to cut through. Not only that but cutting through these roots can be detrimental to the local geography.

Once you have your permits in place, the next thing you need to do is to consider your bunker location. It needs to be someplace you’ll be safe and private if secrecy is an essential factor.

Avoid any place that is close to large bodies of water as they’re more likely to flood, which can damage the structural integrity of your bunker. Likewise, avoid any flammable place.

To obtain the appropriate permits, you need to go to your local building department or building official. You will need to show them plans of what you are going to be doing, so make sure you have your blueprint (more on that later) and a map showing where you’re going to be working.

The most important thing to do is to get the proper permits. Permits are used to ensure safety for you and everyone around you during the project. Failure to obtain or comply with a permit can be expensive and sometimes dangerous if you aren’t careful.
