While other companies may be able to do small container modifications, most don't have an in-house fabrication staff or 90,000 sq ft fabrication facility like we do. As a result, they outsource the work on your custom container, so you don't know who's actually building it.
Rest assured knowing your modified shipping container will be built to the highest quality standards. Our certified weld and quality control inspectors check every step of the fabrication process to ensure everything is structurally sound and built to your specifications.

MORENO VALLEY, Calif. – A series of wildfires southeast of Los Angeles have forced hundreds of evacuations while firefighters battle through 100-degree heat to control the flames.
The fires are burning in Riverside County, and firefighters have attacked the flames with both ground and air resources.
The largest of the three blazes is known as the Rabbit Fire, which CAL FIRE said exploded in size to more than 7,000 acres within 24 hours. As of Monday, the fire stretched to 7,600 acres. Firefighters gained some ground on the blaze, increasing containment to 35% through the night into Monday.
Evacuation warnings are in place south of Seneca Springs and south of East 1st Street.
CALIFORNIA COMPANY USING ANIMALS TO REDUCE WILDFIRE DANGERS
Firefighters said they had difficulty containing the blaze because of its rapid movement.
According to ALERTCalifornia, crews worked to protect important infrastructure on Mount Davis on Saturday.
Prior to the Rabbit Fire, the Reche Fire broke out a little before 1 p.m. Friday. The Reche Fire prompted evacuation orders before they were all eventually lifted. The blaze is nearly contained after burning more than 430 acres.
About two hours later, the Highland Fire broke out in the Beaumont area, prompting evacuations before they were eventually pulled back. The Highland Fire consumed more than 100 acres and is almost fully contained.
On Saturday, the Riverside Fire Department responded to another fire near Gavilan Road and Smith Road around 3:30 p.m., prompting several road closures and evacuations near Perris.
The Gavilan Fire grew to more than 330 acres and is 50% contained.
Officials have not released the causes of the fires for all four incidents.

The fires come as millions of Americans face dangerously high temperatures this week while a powerful heat wave stretches from California to Florida. While the heat likely peaked over the weekend, it won't be going anywhere soon.
Excessive Heat Warnings are in effect for most of Southern California through Tuesday evening, including the Los Angeles area.

A fourth wildfire broke out in western Riverside County on Saturday even as three others continued to burn, scorching thousands of acres and forcing evacuations as a blistering heat wave held much of the country in its grip and was expected to intensify this weekend in Nevada, Arizona and California.
The Rabbit fire, which began Friday afternoon in the community of Lakeview, had burned 7,600 acres with 10% containment as of Sunday morning, according to the California Department of Forestry/Riverside County Fire Department.
An evacuation order was issued for homes north and west of Highway 79, east and west of California Avenue, north and south of First Street, east and west of Manzanita Park Road; east of Jack Rabbit Trail; west of Highland Springs Road, and north of Forest Boundary Line.
Triple-digit temperatures across the region and difficult topography are proving challenging for crews battling the wildfire, said Tawny Castro, public information officer with the county fire department.
The fire is “within a canyon with quite a few hills and changes in elevation,” Castro said. Ground crews are being assisted by air tankers and helicopters dropping water and fire retardant on the flames.
In Beaumont, at the summit of San Gorgonio Pass Axel Sanchez watched as clouds of smoke from the Rabbit fire billowed in the sky.
Sanchez, an employee at Mr. Taco restaurant on Beaumont Avenue just north of the fire evacuation area, described the scene.
“It’s getting closer and looks pretty dangerous,” he said of the wildfire. “It’s just an inferno. Ash is raining down and people are coming in here covered in ash.”
With the searing heat and poor air quality, business was brisk Saturday afternoon, he said.
“It’s like a safe haven here right now,” Sanchez said. “Our dining room is full and people get to be inside in the air conditioning and enjoy beer and refreshments.”
Another blaze, dubbed the Reche fire, had charred 437 acres in an unincorporated area north of Moreno Valley, with 60% containment as of Sunday morning, officials said. Video from the scene showed at least one structure engulfed in flames, but it was unclear whether any others had been damaged.

Nearly 300 firefighters were battling the blaze.
Evacuations were ordered Friday afternoon for residents south of Reche Canyon Road, north of Reche Vista Drive, west of Trust Way and east of Alta Vista Drive, authorities said. That order was downgraded to a warning Friday night.
The warning remained in place Saturday, along with an evacuation warning for Moreno Valley residents south of Alta Vista Drive, north of Ironwood Avenue, west of Moreno Drive and east of Perris Boulevard.
The Reche fire has also forced the closure of a roughly four-mile section of Reche Canyon Road, according to the Riverside County Fire Department. Authorities set up an evacuation center at Valley View High School, 13135 Nason St.
The Highland fire, burning south of Beaumont, had burned 105 acres and was 70% contained. The fire briefly forced evacuations along Breckenridge Avenue between Highland Springs Avenue and Sunningdale Street.
All evacuation warnings and orders issued for the Highland fire were lifted by 9 p.m. Friday.
The Gavilan Fire, near Gavilan and Idaleona roads west of Perris, had burned 250 acres and was 50% contained. Evacuation orders for south of Country Pine Road, east of Gold Valley Road, and north of Idaleona Road were downgraded Saturday evening to a warning.
The cause of the fires remained under investigation, authorities said. Officials did not yet have information on whether any buildings were damaged.
Meanwhile, the South Coast Air Quality Management District issued a smoke advisory and warned of unhealthy air in western Riverside County because of the wildfires.
July 15, 2023
The fires broke out as a high pressure “heat dome” continued to scorch most of the West, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues and wildfires. Nearly a third of Americans were under extreme heat advisories, watches and warnings this weekend.
Meteorologists in Las Vegas warned people not to underestimate the danger. “This heatwave is NOT typical desert heat due to its long duration, extreme daytime temperatures, & warm nights. Everyone needs to take this heat seriously, including those who live in the desert,” the National Weather Service in Las Vegas said in a tweet.
Phoenix on Saturday marked the city’s 16th consecutive day of temperatures 110 degrees or higher, hitting 118 degrees by late afternoon and putting it on track to beat the longest measured stretch of such heat. The record is 18 days, recorded in 1974.
“This weekend there will be some of the most serious and hot conditions we’ve ever seen,” said David Hondula the city’s chief heat officer. “I think that it’s a time for maximum community vigilance.”
Much of California remained under an excessive heat warning or heat advisory, which will continue in many regions through next week, officials said.
Several temperature records were broken Saturday, according to the National Weather Service. In the Antelope Valley, Lancaster hit 112, Palmdale reached 111 and Sandberg reached 102. Records were also broken in Paso Robles, in San Luis Obispo County, where temperatures reached 109, and in Santa Barbara County’s New Cuyama, which hit 105.
Blistering triple-digit temperatures were seen across the state. In Death Valley, it was 124 by Saturday evening. In Palm Springs, it was 115 and Redding was 109.
“It’s going to get just very, very hot,” said Elizabeth Adams, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service’s San Diego office. She said parts of Southern California, especially in the Coachella Valley, Inland Empire and San Diego County deserts, won’t see much cooling even in the evenings, with some overnight temperatures remaining in the 80s and 90s.
This kind of extreme heat is a concern for heat-related illnesses, such as heat stroke and heat exhaustion, and has become increasingly deadly in recent years, health officials warned. Elderly people, young children and those who suffer from chronic illnesses are especially at risk and are advised to stay indoors or seek out air-conditioned cooling centers.
Across Riverside County, people seeking relief from the heat filed in to cooling centers set up around the county by the Community Action Partnership, a branch of the county Department of Housing and Workforce Solutions.
In the first few hours of opening on Saturday at least 15 people visited the center at Anza Valley Community Library in Anza, a rural, high-desert region where the temperatures passed 100 degrees by lunchtime.
“It can get a little uncomfortable up here,” said library associate Chantel Yarrow. “It feels like a heater is pounding down your head.”
In addition to air-conditioning, water, snacks and portable fans, visitors to the cooling center at the area’s sole library can check out books, use the computers and send their children to the toy corner, Yarrow said.
“We have a mixture of people who come in,” she said. “Sometimes they come in one at a time and sometimes the whole family comes in.”
The cooling center at the Coachella Valley Rescue Mission in Indio provides showers, meals and on-site counselors. It also has drivers on hand to transport visitors in need of immediate medical care to a hospital.
Most of the 40 or so people who use the center each day during the hottest times of the year are chronically homeless, emergency shelter manager David Douglas said. By the time they get to the cooling center, many are ill with dehydration or other heat-induced ailments.
“Some people need to go straight to the hospital,” Douglas said.

A terrifying ordeal has a Moreno Valley neighborhood on edge after two women escaped from allegedly being held hostage and tortured by a convicted felon.
The incident took place inside 53-year-old Gilberto Puga’s home, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
Arrest documents showed Puga called authorities on May 14 to report two women who were burglarizing his home.
Moments later, dispatch received another call from two women at his home screaming for help.
When deputies arrived, the two women were seen walking away from Puga’s residence. Investigators discovered the women had been locked inside Puga’s home against their will and tortured, according to arrest documents.
They had not burglarized Puga’s home as he initially claimed, authorities said. Puga left his home but was arrested the next day in Hemet.
“It didn’t really surprise me because allegedly this guy has a lot of other priors,” said neighbor Eddie De Leon.
Many neighbors who recognize Puga said he’s been terrorizing the neighborhood for at least a year. De Leon has a restraining order against Puga after he said the man approached his 18-year-old daughter in Feb. 2022.
“He pulls up and blocks her in our driveway,” said De Leon. “He comes up and starts telling her how pretty she was and because it was also Valentine’s Day weekend, that if she doesn’t have a date, he’d love to take her out on a date.”
A day after that incident, De Leon claims his home doorbell camera captured Puga standing in their front yard around 2:30 a.m. KTLA is awaiting authorities’ confirmation that the man in the video is indeed Puga.
De Leon isn’t the only neighbor with a restraining order against the suspect.
“He said he was going to come and kill me, he was going to kill everyone in the house, he was going to get people from L.A. to come and shoot my house,” recalls Sammy, a neighbor.
Sammy’s family said their surveillance camera has captured Puga on their property multiple times.
“He would break the side fence trying to get in,” said Eli, a neighbor. “He would let my dogs out and then say that they got out, so we would leave the house and go look for them and he would try to sneak into the backyard.”
A doorbell camera shared by the family captured video of an angry man, allegedly Puga, yelling, “You just turn on me with that gun mother****** you watch. I’m going to kill all you mother*******.”
Sammy and Eli’s mother, Linda Garcia, said Puga jumped their fence last year. She called authorities for help, but said Puga wasn’t arrested despite authorities knowing who he was.
“He was upset that we didn’t want to be his friend, I think, because we weren’t hanging out,” said Linda. “I felt very weak and vulnerable so my boys and I took self-defense classes, set up more cameras.”
Puga was arrested on several charges including violating personal liberty, unlawfully possessing a firearm, unlawfully possessing paraphernalia and assault with a stun gun and less lethal weapon.
According to a complaint filed, Puga is accused of locking the two women in his enclosed patio for over 30 minutes and of using a stun gun on them several times.
The Riverside County District Attorney’s Office said there are no charges filed for torture or false imprisonment at this time, but that could change throughout the investigation.
