Shipping Containers Thornhill

Secure Container Solutions is leading the way in alternative storage, design, and architecture by repurposing used sea containers as storage units, homes, offices, retail stores, and more. These versatile steel boxes are transforming how households and businesses in Thornhill solve their need for organized space.

Looking for a cheaper and greener way to construct your home? With the rising cost of building materials and housing, modifying new or used containers is becoming the best available option for more and more people. Turning to the humble sea container to protect you and your family from the elements can be an exciting and financially rewarding endeavour.

Custom Modification

Modified storage containers can also be transformed into site offices and pop-up food or retail kiosks. The fact that steel sea cans are strong, secure, versatile, and can be easily transported to a construction site or high-traffic site makes them the perfect resource for creating organized spaces in unconventional areas, all while keeping within budget.

The Green Storage Company

SCS is leading the industry with environmental responsibility and stewardship by diverting thousands of sea cans every year from stockyards and scrap yards. This in turn helps to offset their initial energy cost, and saves the vast amount of energy that would be needed to melt them. Our focus on low environmental impact and sustainability extends to the processes used to brand, paint, and modify containers.
