Container Homes Overview

Affordable Housing, Simple Living

Container Homes for Sale

Container homes are a very popular form of tiny houses, especially because they can be placed on permanent foundations for long-term, affordable housing.

Our container homes are built according to International Residential Code (IRC) standards for durability and safety making them eligible as a primary dwelling or accessory dwelling unit (ADU) in most municipalities.

We can custom build a new container home, move-in ready in just 6-8 weeks.

Container homes have great insulation and can handle a snow load of up to 300 pounds per square foot making a terrific option for cold climates. You may also want to consider a container home if you might have trouble navigating stairs or sleeping in a loft.

How Are Container Homes Different From Tiny Homes

Container homes are built using repurposed shipping containers, which are usually made of corrugated steel. These containers are converted into homes that are extremely durable, eco-friendly, and cost-effective, making them an attractive option for first-time homebuyers or people looking to downsize. The most notable difference between container homes and our tiny homes at Snake River are that our container homes can be placed on permanent foundations for long-term residency while our tiny homes are designed to be easily moveable.

Incredible experience working with Porter on The Elm model. First of all he was reachable meaning we were able to speak with him at the outset when we were strongly interested and had questions and then throughout the whole process. Quick to send additional photos, pics. He was alwayys professional, knowledgeable and kind! Highly recommend!

These tiny homes are so beautiful. The detail and design of the space is incredible. I liked the variety each home has as to offer. Nice to see this company in Eastern Idaho for families looking for a new tiny home.

Getting close to retirement...we learned that Debbie and Porter were with the Snake River Tiny Homes and we couldn't resist looking. The different models are great and the finishes and trims let you personalize them to what works best for you.We have known Debbie and Porter for some years now and have found them to be some of the best people there are. You can count on what ever they tell you being spot on! As we get closer, it's going to be difficult making a decision between these great models.

These tiny homes are beautiful! They have everything you need! Very sturdy, sound proof, and modern. We were helped right away. Mr. Talbot answered all the questions we had, and shared additional information that was very helpful too. I didn’t feel like I was being pressured into anything either which was really nice! Over all it was a great experience!

My husband and I went to check out one of their tiny homes. Mr. Talbot was an amazing host. He told us about all the cool features and answered all the questions we had. The place was cozy and updated, and they had done an amazing job with staging it. 10/10 would recommend this company.

Visited on Saturday. The salesman Porter was very helpful in answering most of our question. Lovely tiny homes. They seem solid and very well built. Not at all like an RV or even manufactured home. Much better quality. It would be great if our plan was to take it away from the area. But for our purposes there remains one big problem, a place to put it. Idaho Falls, and the surrounding area does not have any “tiny home” communities and I’m not about to put this adorable home into any of the local mobile home parks where there seem to be a lack of rules or covenants concerning the way people care for (or don’t care for) their homes. So although these might be great for someone who has their own land in which to put this, it won’t work for us. But we would certainly consider this should things change.
