Building with shipping containers is akin to the largest building block set in the world. Not only can you build what size and shape house you want, but the initial structures are ready to be used in a variety of configurations.
Montainer Homes builds and delivers shipping container homes in various sizes.
While you can also design your own house online, Montainer Homes, a Missoula, Montana-based building company has a wide range of building layouts available. From 160 to 800 square feet, the tiny and tough structures can be placed on foundations in backyards or on private land for tiny living, rentals or mother-in-law apartments.
The Missoula-based company also includes all appliances and decking.
If you have an idea for a shipping container home, the Montainer design team can configure the specific layout. After that they can permit, build, deliver it and install it on any site. Each home comes with detailed floor plans and 3D renderings. The company will also verify compliance with your area’s permitting and installation requirements.
Montainer will also work on permitting and installation requirements.
The fully insulated homes also come with the interior and exterior colors and materials, kitchen and bathroom packages, windows and doors, and deck materials. In addition, all appliances, fixtures and finishes are included.
The smallest Montainer homes start at $45,000.
Montainer Homes start at $45,000 for the smaller houses made from one shipping container to up to $120,000 for houses made from several containers.
