What is the difference between a custom build and standard model?

Custom Builds
We will craft a custom container home specific to your unique needs and location. Using a combination of stacked or adjoined 20ft and 40ft containers, we will create your dream home. We design our container homes to maximize the views and features of your property. We can incorporate just about anything into our container homes. We’ve built workshops, done a putting green, made a large rooftop garden, built custom furniture, and more.

Standard Model
Our Standard container models are inspired by our most popular custom builds. Purchasing a standard container option from our website is the quickest and most affordable way to get your Backcountry Container, as it reduces a lot of the lead times and indirect costs that go into building a fully custom container home structure. Same quality, better price, delivered to you.

Are there any extra costs or fees?

Yes, shipping and sales tax.

Shipping - Shipping fees for all builds depend on the distance from our build site (either in the Texas or Wisconsin area). Shipping typically costs around $3 per mile. Delivery for all builds will be quoted at time of purchase. For delivery, we must be able to drive our flatbed, tiltbed or chassis to the site to be unloaded.

Sales Tax - Sales tax will be applied to the contract amount upon purchase. The sales tax rate applied will depend on which state your container is shipped to.

Are you a family owned business?

What foundation options are available for shipping container homes?

Our preferred general contractor can help you find and install the right foundation for your container home. The most important element of a container home foundation is that the ground is level. If it is level, a container home can be set there. With that said, we recommend using one of these foundation options:

Railroad ties - this is often the least expensive option that can be used as a permanent foundation, and is the ideal option if you would like to move your container home some time in the future.
Gravel pads - this option won't break the bank and is considered a long term, reliable, foundation for container homes.
Concrete slab - this is often the most expensive option but also the most air tight when it comes to keeping your container home level and in place.

Standard Model Questions

What are the options for the standard container models?

Why should I purchase a standard container option?

How long will it take to build my Backcountry Container?

If you purchase one of our standard models, it typically takes 6 - 16 weeks from time of deposit to time of delivery. However, high quality craftsmanship is our number one priority, which means we only source our materials from experienced, reputable vendors. From time to time, the supply chain may delay the waiting period for a standard container model. If that is the case, you will be notified of the updated timeline.

How does the purchase and payment process work for standard containers?

While browsing the standard options on the website, you can select the standard container that you would like to purchase and input your information as requested. This will reserve your spot in line for that model. Within a week, one of our project managers will reach out to you to discuss the model and answer any questions you may have. If you want to move forward with the purchase, we will send you our sales agreement to sign and invoice for payment.

Our payment terms are:
- 50% of the purchase price due upon signing the sales agreement
- 40% due when we start production on your container
- 10% before we ship out your container

Do the standard container models include hook ups for electrical, plumbing and water?

Is there any site preparation necessary?

Do you do the onsite building as well?

What services do your regional preferred general contractors typically offer?

We recommend using one of our regional preferred general contractors because we have experience working with them and know that quality and craftmanship is just as important to them as it is to us.

Some of the items they typically offer: deck options, pergola options, foundation package options, electrical package options, water package options, plumbing package options. They also attach multiple containers together and often consult on permitting and regulations.
