Container Details
What types of containers are on the market ?
Essentially, there are two main types of containers: construction containers, commonly seen at construction sites, and shipping containers, primarily used for sea transport. The key difference between them lies in their construction. Shipping containers are built to endure long-term exposure to harsh marine conditions.
What type of steel are sea containers made of ?
Marine containers are constructed from Corten steel, a weathering steel designed specifically to resist corrosion in harsh marine environments. Corten steel, also known as COR-TEN, is engineered to withstand severe atmospheric conditions and minimize rust and deterioration.
What are the dimensions of sea containers ?
Shipping container lengths are standardized by ISO and are measured in feet. Common sizes include 10 feet, 20 feet, and 40 feet. Heights are categorized into standard.
Standard Containers
10 ft Standard: 10 ft x 8 ft x 8.5 ft
20 ft Standard: 20 ft x 8 ft x 8.5 ft
40 ft Standard: 40 ft x 8 ft x 8.5 ft
Extendable Containers
20 ft Extendable: 20 ft x 13.92 ft x 8.5ft
40 ft Extendable: 40 ft x 13.92 ft x 8.5ft
How much does a container weigh ?
The gross weight of an empty container is 2.5 tons for a 20′ container; and 4 tons for a 40′ container;. The equipped L30 Home module weighs approximately 8-9 tons.
Container maintenance ?
The containers are engineered to endure harsh marine conditions, making them exceptionally durable. Constructed from high-strength steel and coated with specialized paints, they are designed for long-lasting performance and require minimal maintenance.
Are containers exposed to condensation ?
Any metal surface exposed to temperature fluctuations is prone to condensation, but there are ways to mitigate this issue. Research indicates that the corrugated roofs of modern containers help reduce condensation compared to the flat roofs of older models. The slight curve in a modern container’s roof prevents water from pooling, which can otherwise lower the metal's temperature and cause condensation on the interior surface. Condensation is more common in second-hand containers with roof depressions that trap water. Therefore, we advise using new ‘one-way’ containers for projects.
Condensation can also be a concern in modern, well-insulated buildings, where trapped water vapor becomes visible due to temperature differences between inside and outside. To combat this, efficient gravity or mechanical ventilation systems are essential for any building.
When using spray-applied polyurethane foam insulation, condensation is effectively prevented. This is why we recommend this insulation technology for our containers.
Are These Shipping Containers Insulated?
For our shipping container homes, we provide the following premium insulation:
- R13: 2" closed-cell spray foam in the walls
- R21: 3" closed-cell spray foam in the ceiling
- R6: 1" closed-cell spray foam beneath the container
We can also customize the insulation based on your climate. To explore tailored options and enhance performance, please schedule a consultation with one of our container specialists
What kind of foundations are recommended?
Container homes can be placed on level ground without a raised foundation, but having a foundation is strongly advised. A proper foundation helps protect your container home from pests and environmental elements.
Recommended foundation options for container homes include:
- Concrete slab foundations
- Diamond Pier foundations
- Gravel pads
- Railroad ties
The extent of site preparation, including foundations, depends on local conditions. In most cases, (blocks, concrete slabs, footings) is sufficient, eliminating the need for costly foundations
Container Interior
Are fixtures or furnishings included?
Our container homes come with essential fixtures, including kitchen base cabinets, electrical systems, stovetops, sinks, toilets, and showers. However, furnishings such as refrigerators, couches, and beds are not included in the base price. For any inquiries about outfitting your container home, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us
How are your bathroom sizes defined?
Our full bathrooms are equipped with a sink, shower, bathtub, and toilet. For a three-quarter bath, the bathtub is replaced by a shower, while a half-bath includes just a sink and toilet, offering simplicity and convenience for you and your guests.
How is thermal insulation and heating managed?
We utilize spray-applied closed-cell polyurethane foam for internal wall and ceiling insulation as follows:
R13: 2" closed-cell spray foam in the walls
R21: 3" closed-cell spray foam in the ceiling
R6: 1" closed-cell spray foam beneath the container cell spray foam under a container
The thermal insulation we offer has been adapted to the Northern America climatic conditions.
Can I customize my container?
We offer a variety of interior and exterior options for you to choose from. Our focus on mass production ensures cost-effectiveness, which limits us to the models displayed. However, you can opt to remove certain features, such as cabinetry, flooring, or wall board, giving you or your team the flexibility to further customize the container to your liking.

Once your container build is complete, we will arrange a delivery time that suits your schedule.

Kozzi Homes Containers offers options including:
- Flatbeds
- Tilt Beds
- Cranes (fee required)
- Forklifts ( fee required)
We ensure that your delivery needs are comprehensively addressed.
Space required for delivery
Additionally, ensure that the delivery path on your property is at least 10 feet wide to facilitate a smooth delivery process.
How far do you deliver?
We provide shipping solutions worldwide with key hubs throughout the United States and ongoing expansion efforts.
Do you need permitting?
Once you’ve confirmed that containers are the right choice and have your financing secured, the next step is to address permitting. If your land is unrestricted, you may skip this step.
Site Prep?
While your container home is being constructed, you should prepare your land for delivery and installation. For guidance on land preparation, we will email you. Additionally, ensure that the delivery path on your property is at least 10 feet wide to facilitate a smooth delivery process. Coordinating site preparation with construction helps achieve optimal build and delivery times.
Connect your container to utilities
After your custom container is delivered and securely positioned on your property, the next step, if necessary, is to connect it to essential utilities such as water, sewage, and electrical systems. Typically, a general contractor (GC) will prepare these connections in advance and return to complete the process once the container is in place.
Additionally, we offer containers with its own energy source and a closed-loop system that includes both clean and wastewater tanks. This option is great for off grid living.

Customized containers can be equipped with various features to address particular business requirements. They can be insulated for temperature regulation, fitted with electrical and plumbing systems, and personalized with branding and signage to create a professional and inviting environment.
Rental Container Homes & Communities
Although our containers are versatile and suitable for various uses, most of our clients use them as short-term rentals. This build-to-rent approach is significantly faster than traditional stick-and-frame construction, allowing you to start generating income from your land in just a few weeks. Do you have land that’s ready to be put to work?
The Affordable Rental Investor Option
For those who lack the time, resources, or desire to manage a construction project on-site, off-site building is an excellent option. By having your container home built off-site, you avoid the need for daily contractor visits and can focus on other tasks while the construction progresses.
The build-to-rent model has proven highly successful for our clients, and as the housing market evolves, container homes are becoming increasingly popular.
In fact, Airbnb now has a dedicated category for container homes!
