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.
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.
Technically, yes. If you have appropriate transport (flatbed, chassis, etc.), and you ensure all utilities are disconnected, the container can be moved at your discretion.
The short answer is Yes. Corten steel will rust much slower than mild steel, and will remain water proof through its lifetime. Corten containers are corrosion resistant. Added layers of rust resistant paint and primer provides extra support.
Our containers are either brand new or 'one trip', meaning they shipped cargo one time before they were sold to us. 'One trip' containers are considered like new and rarely have any blemishes on them. We inspect all containers for quality when we receive them.
Yes, we are proud to be a 100% family owned business with all of our operations and facilities located in the USA with production facilities in Texas and Wisconsin.
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.
We are not experts on all the regulations and permitting required that is specific to certain cities, counties and state localities across the United States. We recommend utilizing a local general contractor familiar with your geographic region to assist you with permitting and navigating local regulations.
Depending on the configuration chosen, your container will be delivered on the appropriate transport, whether it be a flatbed, tiltbed or chassis. If a crane is required, we arrange for that as well.
Yes. We accept all major credit cards, however transaction fees may apply depending on the card used.
Yes. By appointment only. Send a message to sales@backcountrycontainers.com to make a request.
