Container Residential Development Welcome Center

Starting at $380,000

Many communities today are searching for sustainable, flexible building solutions that reduce environmental impact without sacrificing function or design. Shipping containers offer a strong, adaptable foundation—and when repurposed thoughtfully, they become an opportunity to create meaningful spaces with a smaller footprint.

The design, consisting of 5, 40-foot containers, includes an open-concept entry area, a kitchenette, 2 restrooms, a conference room, and 3 office spaces.

**Photos are representative of the container build, but are not exact replicas of our base models. Decks, external cladding, and stairs are not included in Backcountry Containers estimated pricing.**
