Off Grid Living - Is It Legal

Facing the struggles of trying to legally live off the grid can be extremely challenging. Is it legal to live off the grid? Can I build my own log cabin and be self sufficient and self reliant? Will building codes and zoning laws stop my off grid lifestyle from becoming a reality? Building in general is a nightmare, but when you take your build off the grid, big or small, it can create a new world of problems. What is my advice to all the fellow and future off grid seekers? Do your homework and just do it! It is never to early to start pursuing your dream. Even if you are not yet in a position to break ground it is never to early to start researching all of the different aspects that go into a more self sufficient life style. But, even if progress is slow, any progress is better then just day dreaming. You will get there if you just know where to start! You can do it too! You just have to start!

I would like to note. I am not a professional on this topic. Just sharing what I've found from my own research. Please look into the laws yourself before building a cabin. Just remember in most places building a seasonal cabin tends to be a lot easier. Also I would like to note that I am using the term off grid very loose. You may still be able to live that lifestyle and be connected to the grid but choose how you power your cabin. In my opinion even if its not perfect is still living off grid if you are making the choice.

Everyone draws the line different. I thought I'd live like it was 1800's and it was fun for awhile. Certainly not long term. The thing about off grid living is you get to create your own place and make it how you want it. Its freedom.

Hi - You said "every state has its own 'international' codes." My opinion is that America is still sovereign and therefore logically international codes do not apply. But if the people keep obeying those codes and do not reject them, as they are unconstitutional, then our government servants will continue to usurp their power and beat folks over the head with them.

I love that you cover these topics that are often ignored by other off grid channels. Concepts are great but reality is better. What good is all these ideas, motivations and desires to live off the grid if local counties, towns or cities prohibit you from living the way you want too. I buck the trend on almost everything so this topic is no different. Great video.

Imho... the best choice is to have the OPTION to go either way... at least if you're full time living. Say you got sick... and there was no sun for days.. or you ran out of wood. Nice to have a back-up plan. As pointed out.. just because the code mandates one be hooked up doesn't mean you have to use it... plus.. if you ever wanted to sell your property .. being On Grid makes it much easier. All sorts of trade offs out there. Enjoy the journey.

I live off grid in Maine and have for almost 4 years. I purchased a one room cabin located 20 feet from a river. The cabin was built in the 1960's. I have made improvements since I've been here. I recently installed a new solar powered electrical system (2400Watts). It replaced the one I installed 5 years ago that is very similar to yours (180Watts). I outgrew the original when I found myself starting the generator almost everyday in the winter. I am located six miles from town and my cabin is located at the end of my road. I have a beautiful isolated spot and it truly away from the static of everyday modern society.

Back in 1997 me and my dad did the same thing. We tech for shipping containers and built a little camp out of it. First night in it me and my cousin stayed in it we didn't have a door on it just some plastic and it came a storm and my German shepherd came tearing through it and wouldn't leave I pretty much lived in that thing all summer

Thanks for the information - surely will be helpfull for many people. Hope you ar edoing well and enjoying your day off. Take care bro! Oh and PS - I loved that last part about the first old camp you build with your dad. It reminded me of a similar thing I build as a kid of 9, 10 years old in the woods where I lived. How I dreamed of living off grid back then and how it always stayed with me all my life. It is truely inspirational and highly motivating to see you pursue your dreams and live them. I still wish to do the same myself. One day I will!!

Good camera Bo and the sound, at least in this vid, is excellent. I live in Holland, as far as I know its as good as impossible to live off grid. Like Carol Turner is commenting down below here, all kinds of obstacles, even some who are just so insane that you never think it is possible. I have the feeling you living complete alone now, without your gf/wife. Is of cause ok, a relationship can be very stressful when its not going good. Believe me, I know that feeling. Slowly plan your new cabin is a good plan, life can change so fast. If you gonna built your cabin see it as a milestone and enjoy it, a new step in your future. Keep one thing in mind when you built, that you always can expand the cabin with out big problems. Its very important in the basic design. Stay warm and head up, regards, Tony.

Thanks for the video, Bo. In Florida where I live, the biggest problem for off grid living is waste water treatment. You either have to be connected to a county sewer system or have an approved septic system. Also, clean water is an issue so a well is usually needed, but then that requires some kind of power to operate the pump. I am currently researching these more to see what my alternatives are. Also, I also dreamed of living in a cabin in the woods, but didn’t seriously pursue that until now that I am retired. Better late than never right? 😊

Great video. I live vicariously through your story. One Caveat that may open possibilities. as long as the structure is "Mobile," there may be fewer applicable restrictions. My friend bought a property that did not allow perm structures but had a derelict 40' X 25' mobile home on it. She took a Backhoe to the Rats' nest of a trailer, but left the chassis, wheels and tongue. She then put a 20' X 25' "Shed" over the chassis and built a 20' X 25' porch in front. It is still "mobile" but functionally serves as a beautiful cabin. No Permits!!!

Bo, a tiny camera issue - in most of the shots the background is sharp but you're slightly out of focus - it's particularly noticeable at 3:50. What the camera is doing is choosing a centre focus point but you're off centre so it's struggling. Later in the video it's completely out of focus much of the time. If you have a manual focus option available on the lens/camera that's what you want to try out...

You forgot Arizona. It ranks higher than most of your choices. Also eastern Washington is pretty friendly.

It's not only my dream, it's going to happen next year ( 2020 ). I've worked constrution for years, and grew up on a farm, an excellent hunter, and woodsman. My only problem is finding a partner to do it with, I know many ways of making money in the wilderness, but my only problem is, I don't think it's best mentally to do it all alone, everyone needs someone to communicate with, you know what they say about people that talk to themselves. Of course I could talk to my 🐕, but he can't reply. So, if there's any lady out there, that wants to live off grid, and you like dogs, horses, and a hard-working man, drop me a message here. I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed and say a little prayer...

Just a thought..... What if you had 3 or 4 like minded responsible individuals that worked together towards sustainability. If everyone wanted to live off the grid, the grid would not exist.

Yes, it IS legal to live off grid. The grid referred to is the Power Grid, nobody can force someone to pay for or use power from a power company, though they'd like to make you think otherwise. Use your head.

Keep going mate. You will do fine. Heads up and don’t give up. Many of us wish could be there and do that. Instead we lay flat in our beds watching utube. 😂😂
