Backyard Add-Ons

Shipping containers don't have to be your full-time living space. You can also use our storage container home modifications to create add-ons to your existing property for more space on-site. For example, you can add guest houses, extra bathrooms, garage workspaces, units to rent out, sheds for industrial equipment, ground-level car garages, off-grid dwellings, and more.

Multiple Containers in a Modular Layout

Why stop with one shipping container building when you can combine multiple into a unique grid? Custom container grid layouts allow you to combine containers for extra living space. We can stack your shipping containers, place them side-by-side, or combine both options for a luxury mansion built from only containers.

Make the Right Investment for Your Future by Choosing Container Homes for Sale

Why choose a shipping container house over traditional living materials? Both luxury and cheap shipping container homes provide a range of benefits. When you customize a shipping container home with ModBetter, you can take advantage of the following benefits.

Portability

Your shipping container home will 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, you can simply take your dream container home with you.

Longevity

Your shipping container home will come with superior durability to stand strong against severe weather or wear and tear, so you won't have to worry about constant maintenance. Shipping containers can last decades with minimal repair needs, allowing you to live on or off-grid in any climate.

Eco-Friendly Materials

At ModBetter, we only use eco-friendly materials on each shipping container home by repurposing pre-existing containers and interior materials to reduce carbon footprints. Our team minimizes air pollution and gas emissions by avoiding all toxic chemicals during the construction process. Choosing a shipping container home from ModBetter means choosing a sustainable living option that helps the environment.

Low Costs and Fast Build Times

Our off-site building technique, combined with the repurposed materials and cost-effective container pricing, allows us to create your container home at an affordable price. You can have the shipping container home of your dreams without compromising your life's savings. The simple construction also allows for fast build times, so you won't have to wait years to see your container home come to life.

Energy-Efficient Enhancement

Our commitment to sustainable living doesn't end after the construction phase. We can equip your unit with many energy-efficient enhancements that help you reduce your carbon footprint while saving on monthly utility bills. For example, we can install interior LED light solutions, solar panels for taking advantage of natural light sources, smart-living appliances, advanced HVAC systems, bathroom upgrades, and more.
