Container offices, mountain cabins, ranch storage, and climate-controlled workspaces: built on the foundation of a steel shipping container.
A modified shipping container starts with the same Cor-Ten steel ISO structure and adds features that turn it into a functional space. Personnel doors, windows, insulation, electrical, HVAC, custom paint, shelving, flooring: modifications can be as simple or as comprehensive as your project requires. The base unit can be ordered in different grades (see our container condition guide). If you are weighing financing options, see our rent vs buy guide.
A modified container can be set up as a job site office, a lockable equipment room, a cabin base, or a branded field office that can be moved between sites.
Describe what the container needs to do and where it will be placed. A Container One sales representative prepares the quote for your Colorado property.
A wide range of factory and custom modifications can be requested. Describe your project and a Container One sales representative will confirm the available options.
A modified 20ft or 40ft container, insulated and climate-controlled, can serve as a lockable on-site workspace for superintendents and project managers. Fully outfitted office builds can be discussed with a Container One sales representative.
A modified high cube can serve as a base camp on hunting land or a fishing property on the Western Slope, in the mountains, or on a ranch in Eastern Colorado. Insulation, HVAC, bunk beds, an electrical package, and a lockable structure can be added, which helps on properties that are hard to reach with a construction crew.
A ranch or agricultural operation can use a modified container as a field office, an equipment maintenance bay, or a break room. A roll-up door added on the side or end turns a 40ft container into a shop bay for small equipment maintenance.
A modified container can serve as a cabin on a mountain property, such as in Summit, Grand, Pitkin, or Gunnison County.
Describe your intended use, your Colorado property location, any access constraints, your timeline, and your budget range. The more detail, the better we can match you to the right container and configuration.
A Container One sales representative recommends the base container (size, grade), the modifications for your use case, and a written quote for your Colorado address.
Once your order is confirmed, modifications are completed before delivery. Modified containers take longer than a standard unit, depending on the scope of work and the current build schedule.
The finished modified container is delivered to your site on a tilt-bed truck: just like a standard container delivery, but the unit arrives ready to use (or nearly so, depending on the configuration).
The more detail you share, the better we can help. Modified containers are priced by project. There is no standard price list.
