Residential Container Modifications
MODIFY RESIDENTIALCONTAINERS
Looking for MORE container types?
If you can dream it, our container fabrication experts can build it.
From tack rooms to garages, we can convert shipping containers into anything you need. We’ll build your custom container to your specifications, so you can get the extra space you need for your home. The corrugated steel of containers is very different than typical home building. It requires special tools, jigs and expertise to get it done right.
Whatever your need, we’ve got the experience and resources to make it happen.
Here’s why you should choose us to construct a customized container for your home:
- Our certified fabrication experts have more than 500 years combined experience in container modifications. No other company in the industry has that breadth and depth of staff and experience.
- Over the past 25 years, we have customized thousands of containers nationwide as well as some international projects.
- Our 90,000 sq ft fabrication facility and extensive staff operate full time on multiple projects simultaneously, delivering consistent quality and fast turnaround.
- Being indoors means no interference in production or quality from weather conditions and outdoor contaminants. Being on level ground allows for precision cuts and welds.
- While other companies may have some staff able to modify containers for home use, most will outsource, so you don’t know who is actually doing the work, how much markup is involved or how much experience they have dealing with the many nuances and special tools needed to modify containers correctly.
- When we modify your containers, you get the highest quality in your custom container. Other companies can’t say the same.
- You can rest assured knowing your custom container is safe in our hands. Our certified weld and quality control inspectors ensure everything is structurally sound and built to your specifications through every step of the process.
- Even after your custom container has been delivered, we’ve still got your back. Our full-service staff can do maintenance and quick modifications at your location, if you ever need it.
HOW IT WORKS
Provide Your Design & Specifications
Ensure that your design includes all specifications you need and everything else you want. It’s easier to start with as many features you want and narrow down the list as you go through the process, than it is to add to the list later.
We Build It with Quality Control
For your peace of mind, our certified weld inspectors and quality control inspectors inspect all work on your modified containers every step of the way, ensuring your build is of the highest possible quality.
Approval Process
Finalize your specifications and sign off on final quote.
Make a Deposit
We require 50% of the total cost of your container modification before starting construction on it.
Get an Initial Quote & Timeframe
We’ll provide an initial quote to see if your current design will be within your budget. If not, we can get into the details to figure out the best way to meet your needs and your budget.
Pay Your Remaining Balance
The final 50% of your custom container is due before shipment.
Delivery & Setup
Whether you need us to deliver and set it up for you, or just need our help loading it up on your trucker of choice to set it up yourself, we can accommodate whatever works best for you.
Residential Containers to Modify
The possibilities are endless. We can modify containers into any size and custom build anything you need. You get the choice between cargo-worthy or one trip (new) containers for your custom container project. Cargo-worthy containers are wind-resistant, weathertight and typically spent 10 years carrying cargo. One trip containers have only made one cargo trip in their lifetime and are the newest possible option, as ISO shipping containers are not made in the US.
Standard Storage Containers for Modification
