From an idea to a building team
Find businesses offering residential container construction, then compare what they build and what remains to be done on your land. Start with your location, intended dwelling and finished layout.
A starting selection
These businesses advertise homes made from shipping containers. The summaries reflect their official sites; listed locations describe their base, not guaranteed delivery coverage. Inclusion does not establish a partnership with ContainerFox.

Compare the same project
Send each builder the same site address, room needs, intended use and target timing. Request a responsibility schedule alongside the drawings.
| Scope | Confirm in writing |
|---|---|
| Factory package | Finished rooms, structural work, insulation, services, appliances and drawings; distinguish standard equipment from options. |
| Work on your land | Foundations, permits, site access, transport, craning, utility connections and final commissioning: who supplies and pays for each? |
| Evidence & handover | Comparable completed projects, the named contracting company, inspection records, warranty terms and maintenance information. |
Check the site and permit requirements before treating a catalogue model as suitable for your property.
No. Some build new steel modules described as container-style. Ask which structural system is proposed and request the specification for your project.
A listing does not mean a business participates in our enquiry service. Use its official website for direct contact. Our form prepares a residential conversion request; responses depend on participating suppliers.
Describe the fitted container you need, your site and the work to include. You can review the request before submitting it.
