One result could be having doors that are incredibly difficult to open and close. This creates an unevenness which can allow your home to shift since the load isn’t equally distributed. For example, part of the ground could be hard rock and the other part soft clay. The ground underneath your building can also be comprised of different materials. Without this solid platform, the ground’s natural movement can cause the containers to split and separate. A foundation provides a solid, stable platform for your building.
