Shipping Container Homes Built for Modern Living
Boma Properties designs and builds modern shipping container homes available across the United States. Our prefab container homes are built for full-time living, Airbnb rentals, boutique hotels, and backyard ADUs. We also own and operate our own container home hotels, giving us real-world experience in designing units that perform in hospitality and short-term rental environments. Each model is engineered for durability, efficiency, and fast installation.
Boma Properties offers both pre-designed shipping container home models and fully custom container homes to match your vision. Clients can choose from our proven prefab container home layouts or work with our team to design a completely custom configuration. From exterior finishes and window placement to interior layouts, cabinetry, and materials, every container home can be tailored to meet your lifestyle or investment goals. Whether you are building a full-time residence, a vacation cabin, or a short-term rental property, our flexible design process ensures your container home is both functional and uniquely yours.

How the Boma Container Home Process Works
At Boma Properties, we make the process of designing and delivering a shipping container home simple and transparent. From the first consultation to final delivery, our team works closely with you to bring your container home project to life.
Consultation and Project Review
Every project begins with a discovery call where we review your property, zoning requirements, and overall project goals. We discuss container home models or custom layouts, your target budget range, and important site factors such as utilities and foundation requirements. During this step you receive model recommendations, estimated pricing ranges, and a projected timeline to help guide your decision.
3D Design and Layout Planning
Once the project direction is established, clients can move forward with a detailed 3D design and video walkthrough. This stage includes full interior and exterior renderings, layout visualization, and one revision round to finalize the design. The goal is to confirm the container home layout and specifications before production begins.
Building Your Container Home
After final design approval and contract execution, fabrication begins. Standard production timelines are approximately 100 days depending on model and customization. Throughout the process, clients receive progress updates including photos and videos from the factory as the container home is built and prepared for delivery.
Shipping and Delivery
Boma Properties coordinates the full logistics process including freight, insurance, and flatbed delivery to your site. Our team works with you during the final preparation stage to ensure the property is ready for placement. Once the container home arrives, a final walkthrough and acceptance process is completed. We can delivery container homes anywhere nationwide.
