SOUTH SHORE
CONTAINER HOMES
ABOUT US
Our journey began with two passionate entrepreneurs who shared a deep love for innovation in housing and construction. Our co-founders bring a wealth of expertise to the table. Ron has over three decades of experience as a licensed single-family home building contractor, while Mark has thrived as a business owner, founder, and real estate developer for over 25 years.
Driven by a shared vision of alternative eco-conscious living, they recognized the untapped potential of container homes, an exciting frontier in modern sustainable housing. This realization led to the birth of South Shore Container Homes, where we blend years of hands-on construction know-how with a commitment to minimizing our environmental footprint.
Today, our company stands as a testament to their dedication, vision, and a commitment to transforming container homes into stunning, sustainable, and affordable living spaces. Discover the SSCH difference – where experience meets innovation, and your dream container home becomes a reality.

WE CUSTOMIZE TOO!
Customizing a container home offers endless possibilities to tailor your living space to your unique needs and preferences. From layout and design to materials and finishes, you have the creative freedom to transform this compact structure into your dream home. You can choose an open floor plan for a spacious feel or partition it into separate rooms for privacy. Personalize the exterior with your choice of cladding, paint, or even a green roof for a sustainable touch. Inside, select flooring, cabinetry, appliances, and fixtures that align with your style and functionality requirements. Add energy-efficient features like solar panels or insulation for year-round comfort. With container homes, customization knows no bounds, allowing you to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing space that truly reflects your lifestyle and taste.
WHY CONTAINER HOMES?
Container homes are a choice that blends sustainability, affordability, and practicality, making them an ideal option for a wide range of individuals and families. First and foremost, container homes are celebrated for their eco-friendly and sustainable nature. By repurposing shipping containers, we not only reduce waste but also minimize the demand for new construction materials, thus lowering our ecological footprint. Moreover, container homes are notably affordable, offering an affordable housing solution without sacrificing style or comfort. This makes them particularly appealing for budget-conscious individuals or those looking for a unique and cost-effective housing option. Additionally, container homes present an excellent alternative for larger families. Their modular design allows for easy expansion, creating spacious and adaptable living spaces that can grow with your family's needs, making them a practical choice for those who value space and flexibility in their homes. Investing in a container home not only provides a unique and sustainable living solution but also offers a reliable asset that can appreciate over time, making it a smart and prudent choice for the future.
