Why choose a shipping container house over traditional living materials? Both luxury and basic shipping container homes offer compelling benefits. Here’s what makes container homes such an attractive living option:
Container homes provide ideal location flexibility if you ever decide to move. Rather than going through the hassle of selling your house and finding a new one, a properly designed container home can be transported to your new location.
Shipping container homes come with superior durability to stand strong against severe weather and wear and tear, eliminating concerns about constant maintenance. These steel structures can last decades with minimal repair needs, making them ideal for both standard residential use and off-grid living in any climate.
Container homes represent sustainable living at its best. By repurposing pre-existing containers and using eco-friendly interior materials, these structures significantly reduce carbon footprints. Smart design choices can minimize air pollution and avoid toxic chemicals during the construction process, making container homes an environmentally conscious living solution.
The simplified construction process, combined with repurposed materials and cost-effective container pricing, makes container homes remarkably affordable. With proper planning and execution, you can create your dream home without compromising your life's savings. The streamlined building process also results in faster completion times compared to traditional construction.
Container homes excel in sustainable living features. Modern container home designs incorporate numerous energy-efficient enhancements that help reduce carbon footprints while lowering monthly utility bills. Options include interior LED lighting, solar panels, natural light optimization, smart-living appliances, advanced HVAC systems, efficient bathroom fixtures, and more.
Yes, constructing a shipping container house is cheaper than a traditional build because of the off-location construction, cheaper materials, and streamlined process. You can save money owning a shipping container unit as well by choosing energy-efficient interior finishes.
The price of a shipping container home for sale depends on the size of the interior, customization requirements, number of bedroom spaces inside, interior upgrades, floor finish, and more.
Most containers come in 20 and 40-foot sizes with a tall-interior option. Our plans provide options for spaces for one bathroom, one bedroom, a half-size toilet room, multiple bedrooms, or any combination thereof.
