If you have more stuff than you have storage, it’s time to consider additional exterior storage space. Our premium container garage plans provide everything you need to create custom storage sheds and garages that suit your specific requirements. Our detailed guides are based on years of experience designing sustainable container solutions for storage problems.
From comprehensive plans to step-by-step tutorials, our resources help you bring your container garage vision to life.
Many homes and businesses across the country need more storage space. Mechanics, handymen, and landscaping company owners need additional car garages for ongoing projects and workshop space. Homeowners want sturdy sheds to store tools and equipment for home maintenance projects. Hobbyists want a secure space to work with lathes, electric saws, and kilns.
The issue with adding exterior storage space for your tools, equipment, and materials is that these are often expensive. You want to protect your investments from harsh weather conditions and potential thieves or vandals. A simple plastic or vinyl shed won’t be sturdy enough to resist high winds, constant UV exposure from the sun, or human tampering.
What many people need are shipping container sheds and garages. Made from corrugated steel, shipping containers offer a durable and secure solution for exterior storage sheds, additional garage space, agricultural storage, or hobbyist workshops. Our plans include specifications for multi-point locking door handles to secure your valuables.
Our premium container plans include a range of customization options, including:
Whether you want to add a workshop to your back yard, create your own mancave to have a place to get away and enjoy some me-time, or add space for the vehicles you can’t fit inside your garage, our custom container plans offer the perfect solution.

Shipping containers are popular for creating additional storage options and workspaces around your home or business. When you need a place to store extra tools, large equipment, lawnmowers, cars, or motorcycles, a shipping container shed or garage could be the perfect solution.
Many people choose shipping container sheds and garages for:
Shipping container buildings are residential, business, or storage buildings made from steel shipping containers. They are highly customizable to suit whatever you need them for and extremely affordable compared to hiring contractors to erect a new construction building on-site.
You can customize your shipping container shed or garage with windows, standard or rolling doors, exterior coverings, drywall, temperature control, and additional features to suit your purposes.
Shipping containers make excellent sheds and second garages but are also wonderful options for temporary offices, tiny houses, portable bathroom facilities, concession stands, outdoor bars, pop-up restaurants, multi-unit storage buildings, and other small buildings.
We can also stack and conjoin multiple containers to create larger offices and homes, rooftop bars and seating areas, entertainment areas, and full-sized restaurants with interior dining and a rooftop patio.
With appropriate maintenance, your shipping container building could easily last over 25 years. Occasional washing with a mild detergent and a hose is often all you’ll need to maintain your building. You should occasionally inspect the roof to look for signs of leaks, mold, or rust. Standing water and UV rays can eat away at the protective coating on the roof faster than the rest of the building.
Made from corrugated steel, shipping container buildings can resist high winds, heavy snow piles, and constant sun exposure without damage. However, you should consider paint touchups around scratches or other marks to prevent rust from forming. Rust can eat away at the steel and weaken your building if allowed to spread.
