Who We Are
Our Story
It all started with a 20ft shipping container.
Designing unique and simple solutions to complex problems has always been one of Jon Meier’s strongest attributes. Like most engineers, the founder of Backcountry Containers has always enjoyed taking things apart and putting them back together. While Jon was working as an aeronautical engineer, he became intrigued by the concept of tiny living. He knew with his engineering background, he could make a unique, functional, and structurally sound dwelling space. With the support of his wife Kristen, he quit his job and built the first Backcountry Container. Kristen has always been a talented decorator and was able to balance out Jon’s practical, modern design with stylish decor and rustic design finishes. The first 20 ft blue container home was an online hit and laid the foundation for what was about to become a booming business.

Standard and Custom Container Structures
Standard and Custom Container Structures
As the business gained attention, demand quickly grew for these functional and aesthetic spaces. Customers want both the standard models we had to offer and others wanted more elaborate multi-container structures.
We now offer standard models, in addition to custom container homes and commercial container projects.
The homes offer Backcountry Container's customers with a cost-effective custom home that can meet their needs in a beautiful and unique way.
