What We Do

Through our advanced engineering and custom metal fabrication systems, we offer innovative solutions for a wide range of industries. We continuously develop new accessories and efficient ways to modify containers without compromising their structural integrity.

Our Journey

In the early 2000s, we operated a trucking and handling company moving containers across Western Canada. After numerous customer inquiries, we realized the demand and started selling containers. In our first year alone, we sold over 300 units and earned the nickname “The Container Guy.”

By 2011, Channing McCorriston won a deal on Dragon’s Den for a shipping container modification startup. Later, he returned to help grow The Container Guy with his deep knowledge in engineering design and regulatory compliance.

Channing, a CMA by training, leads our team with a strong understanding of metal fabrication, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and building codes, ensuring every project meets the highest standards.
