Container Homes NZ
Shipping container homes NZ—brand-new, galvanized-steel–frame dwellings that look like containers but live like real houses.
From $39,000 (GST incl.)
What Our Shipping-Style Homes Really Are
Firstly, these units are not repurposed freight boxes. Instead, we weld a brand-new galvanized steel frame to ISO 20 ft or 40 ft dimensions so transport is simple. Consequently, you get a perfectly straight, rust-free, code-compliant shell—no toxic paint removal or floor replacement required.
Choose 20 ft or 40 ft
Four Reasons to Go New, Not Retro-Fit
- Firstly, factory paint and insulation—no hazardous freight coatings.
- Secondly, a rigid galvanized-steel frame keeps walls straight for perfect joinery fit.
- Finally, fixed pricing: 40 % deposit → turnkey delivery in 10–12 weeks.

How quick is set-up?
Delivery, crane placement and hook-ups finish in one day.
May I customise the layout?
