What Our Customers Say

5-Star Reviews Across Platforms

Our experience from start to finish exceeded our expectations. Allison, Tara and her staff were attentive , professional and knowledgable. Great communication and attentive to the most minute detail. They customized our container to our specifications exactly. Thank you Allison and crew for a great experience in making our vision a reality!

The Duffs

This company is amazing. They are professional, efficient and truly care about the needs of the customer. They produce a high quality product and over deliver what is expected. They are also always available on the phone to provide service, their fees are fair for what you receive, and they work well with all the other contractors involved in your project. I highly recommend Allison Shipping Containers.

Robin

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE! She returns phone calls, answers questions, and generally handles good business. She also accept credit cards for my purchase which is a god send when doing this for the first time! The delivery was perfect as well, all set up by her. I'd easily spend another 10k with her on my next property!

FAQ

Frequently Asked

Questions.

  • What modifications can you make to the shipping containers to ensure they meet our specific needs and comply with local building codes?

    If you are going to be seeking permitting, we are able to build all of our container units according to IBC (International Building Code.) 


    We are also able to do structural modifications, such as reinforcing doors and windows, joining containers together, and stacking containers. 


    We frequently add insulation, wiring, interior finishes, security features, plumbing, exterior modifications, and other specific customizations according to our clients' needs. 

  • How long does it take to complete a typical shipping container office build, and what is your process?

    While the timeline depends on the complexity of the process, here's a general overview of how it works:

    • Initial Consultation & Design (1 - 3 weeks)
    • Modifications and Fabrications (4 - 8 weeks)
    • Quality Control & Inspection (1 week)
    • Delivery & Installation (1 - 2 weeks)

    Generally, a simple office build can be completed in as little as 4 to 6 weeks, while complex projects can take up to 3 to 4 months. 

  • What are the cost advantages of using shipping containers compared to traditional construction for temporary office space?

    As mentioned earlier, the shorter construction timeline translates to lower labor costs. Because much of the fabrication happens in a controlled workshop environment, it requires less on-site labor, and ultimately makes building more affordable.


    While the cost of the containers themselves varies, they can often be more cost-effective than purchasing all the raw materials (lumber, concrete, etc.) needed for a new structure. Shipping container offices often require less extensive site preparation than traditional buildings, reducing costs associated with excavation, foundations, and landscaping.


    If your project moves to a new location, you can relocate the container office, saving the cost of building a new one. Shipping containers are also  built to withstand harsh marine environments, making them very durable and requiring minimal maintenance, which can lead to long-term cost savings. Container construction produces far less waste compared to traditional construction.


    We provide detailed cost breakdowns and can work with your budget to find the most cost-effective solutions. We can also provide options for leasing for smaller projects.

  • What is the life expectancy of a shipping container?

    With proper maintenance, a shipping container office can last as long as a traditional building, 25 years or more. 


    The lifespan depends on factors such as the original condition of the container, the quality of modifications, and the environmental conditions at the site. To maximize lifespan, we recommend:


    *Repainting as needed

    * Regularly inspecting and addressing any rust or corrosion.

    * Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.

    * Implementing a suitable foundation to prevent ground contact and water damage.
