About us
Custom Fabrication and a Rental Fleet, Together
Arizona’s container market splits into companies that move boxes and companies that build things. We are both — so you get the right answer, whether that is a rental today or a custom build.

Our roots
Where we came from
Container Outfitters Arizona is an Allison Shipping Containers company.
Our parent company, Allison Shipping Containers, has spent more than 15 years building custom container offices, studios, and homes across the Hawaiian Islands — for state agencies, contractors, schools, non-profits, and families. Hawaii is a hard place to do this work: everything arrives by ocean freight, there is no margin for a build that comes back wrong, and the islands are small enough that your reputation is the whole business.
We brought that craftsmanship to the Sonoran Desert — built for Arizona heat, Arizona ground, and the way people actually work here.
Here is what that means for you. What crosses over is real — the people, the standards, the fabrication practice, and hard-won knowledge of how these builds are done right. Container Outfitters Arizona is a new Arizona company, and we are building our Arizona track record here starting now, with more than 15 years of craftsmanship already behind how we work.
What we believe
How we work
Real numbers, fast
No account signup to see a price. No qualifying call before a number. You ask what it costs, we tell you what it costs, including delivery.
We frame every cut
A container is a monocoque structure — the walls carry the load. Every opening we make is framed and reinforced, so your doors and windows stay square and seal for the life of the build.
The right solution, not just a sale
Rental or purchase, a single office or a multi-container complex — we help you land on what actually fits your site and your timeline. Getting it right, not just making a sale, is how we work.
We spec for 115°F
Built for real Arizona heat: we insulate and cool it for real desert conditions, so your space stays comfortable right through an Arizona August.
The name
Why "Container Outfitters"
Anybody can sell you a steel box. Outfitting one is the part that takes a shop.
A container leaves the port as a shell: bare corrugated steel, a wood floor, and two cargo doors. Everything that turns it into something you can actually use — a roll-up door you can drive a forklift through, windows, insulation that holds against 115°F, power, partitions, a personnel door where you need one — is work that happens after that. That work is the business.
So the name says what we do rather than trying to be clever about it, and the logo is the same idea: a corrugated container end with a door cut into it. A container, outfitted. Nothing abstract about it.
