Modifications

We can modify and customize your container in nearby Houston by adding doors, floors, windows, skylights, electrical, HVAC, and more.

Export Companies Can Save Time and Money

With the Port of Houston just minutes away, many local companies buy containers to export goods. These shipper-owned containers can be less costly and more practical for some shippers.


Furthermore, we work with surveyors who can appropriately certify containers for ocean shipping.


By owning your containers, your goods can be stored, sealed, and shipped overseas. Moreover, goods in sealed containers can be transported from their origin to their destination.


This saves money and avoids the cost of unloading and reloading goods at the destination port. Steamships require you to keep their containers at the port in some countries when embargoes are in place.


We can help you make the export process work.

Creative Uses of Containers in Dallas and Nearby Areas

Explore some of the creative ways Texans have repurposed steel shipping containers.

  • Container Room Extensions

    Texas homeowners are buying containers to use as home offices or as additions to their homes to expand their living space.

  • Industry Security Checkpoints

    Many Texas businesses use shipping containers at their gates to keep track of those entering and exiting their major factories, corporate offices, or other facilities. In that way, security guards can work outside of the elements.

  • Businesses Supplies

    Water-treatment facilities can house the necessary supplies to keep drinking water safe in a repurposed shipping container. This container can then be moved from location to location—especially in a weather emergency or power outage.

  • Generators, aka Power Module Units

    Housing a diesel engine and a fuel cell, containers can be transformed into powerful mobile generators. When the electricity goes out, these generators can power a hospital emergency room or another critical business for two weeks.

  • Farm Storage

    Many Texas farmers store equipment, implements, or tractors in new and used shipping containers. This extends and expands the size and locations of their barns and reduces their overhead costs. Texans also keep corn, cotton, wheat, oats, sorghum, rice, hay, peanuts, potatoes, and other crops dry in converted shipping containers.

  • Creative Vacation Rentals

    In Ladonia, Texas, vacationers can stay in a treehouse made of shipping containers. A tiny home in Fort Worth is also available to rent. Another shipping container vacation rental is in the Fort Worth cultural district. A micro resort community is in the Fort Worth River District. Called Hotel Otto, it rents eight shipping container bungalows.

  • Container Homes

    From luxury homes to affordable housing, Texans are building and buying houses from repurposed shipping containers. 


    For example, Dallas is home to a 3,700-square-foot luxury container home called PV14. Similarly, a 2,400-square-foot container home in Midway Hollow, Dallas, Texas listed for $730k. 


    A three-story, six-shipping container home resides in the Linwood neighborhood of Fort Worth. 


    East Dallas plans to build affordable apartments made of shipping containers. Rents would start at just $906 a month.


    East McKinney, Texas, boasts an affordable container home community—the first in North Texas. Called The Cotton Groves, the 35 affordable family townhomes were sponsored by the North Collin County Habitat for Humanity. Each home is built from four shipping containers.

  • Container Pools

    Modpools® is located in Austin, Texas, and British Columbia, Canada. It repurposes single-use shipping containers to build custom, in-ground pools throughout Texas.

  • Hydroponic Farms

    Hydroponic farms in converted shipping containers are popular in Texas. For instance, a Texas supermarket chain headquartered in Dallas is growing store-grown produce in containers. 


    Big Tex Urban Farms grows greens in climate-controlled hydroponic containers (two welded together) in Fair Park in South Dallas. Named GrowZilla, the hydroponic farm provides healthy food for nonprofits. 


    Another Dallas, Texas, hydroponic farm, Doodle Farms, provides the greens for Legacy Hall in Plano, Texas.

Great Company To Do Business With!


"I can't say enough about Container Management! I have dealt with several other container places purchasing containers and always had delays and hassles getting my containers or my release numbers to work. I also had many issues with other business telling me I would get nice containers and sending me containers with rust and holes. Container management was on top of all my container needs and releases! My drivers haven't had any issues getting our containers and our containers are what we asked for with no holes or issues. They have reached out to make sure everything is going well and we aren't having any issues. All around great company to do business with!"

I Was So Lucky To Find These Guys


"I ran across Container Management while searching for someone in the Dallas/Fort Worth area who would sell and deliver high quality shipping containers. I work for a large electrical contractor and we needed some storage containers for materials and tools. They also needed to be in good to great condition as we can't risk having our materials & tools damaged from leaks etc.. I seriously was so lucky to find these guys because the process of buying (3) 40' High Cube containers and having them delivered to our job site was flawless. From their outstanding customer service team who knocked it out of the park all the way to their logistics team who delivered the containers in an extremely timely manor. My company will definitely be using these guys for our container needs in the future."

Great Job With Scheduling & Overall Communication


"We have purchased 2 containers so far from Container Management and have had an overall great experience. One item I am truly impressed by is the customer service, they do a great job with scheduling and overall communication. In addition on our second container it showed up with more dent damage than we expected and was overall in pretty rough shape. We called to report the concern and it was immediately taken care of. I did not get one iota of "that is how it is", "luck of the draw" or any other excuse. I sent in pictures before it was dropped and got a call back that this did not meet their standards and they would fix it, which they did and i never heard any complaints or anything from Container Management about this, and this container was shipped over 150 miles to get to its destination. They replaced it with a great container in a matter of days and we are very happy with it.  Its easy be a good company when things go according to plan, but where a company really shines is how they perform when things do not go according to plan, this is where you separate the winners from the losers, and Container Management really shined in this aspect and we will be using them again for a 3rd container in the near future."

Went The Extra Mile


"We purchased a 40 ft. container from Container Management and my husband and I are so pleased with it.  Container Management had the best prices and Les and Jordon are great to work with.  It kept raining and the place we were going to set it stayed wet, but Jordon kept rescheduling it for us.  Jordon went the extra mile and we really appreciate it.  The container looks great.  The driver that deliver it was Mike, and he really knew what he was doing.  Mike set it perfectly on the pad we had made for the container.  Jordon is the sweetest person and knows her job, she sees that everything is going smoothly.  If you need a container, Container Management is the place to go, you will be glad you did.  Thanks to Les and Jordon for all your help!"
