Shipping Containers as Pools Making a Splash!


Storage container pool

When most people think of shipping containers, they think of the very practical uses for them - long term storage, transportation and containment for a move, storing extras to present a clutter free house, and even a kiosk or tiny home. However, one of the most popular uses has emerged recently and it is using a shipping container as a swimming pool. You might be thinking “Why would I want to swim in a shipping container?!”

Well, if you can stop shaking your head we will list a couple of reasons why.

  • You get choices. They can be installed above ground or inground.

  • They are affordable and a great value for the money. Seriously, who has the extra $35,000 to $50,000 in their budget? This is just a start up cost. Maintenance, neighborhood association rules, and chemical upkeep can run up the bill even more.

  • Perfect dimensions. The rectangular cargo containers make for superb pool facilities both with their originally-constructed length and depth.

  • Eco-friendly. All built with recyclable materials. In addition, since you are not building a pool from scratch, you are not using concrete and other building materials, helping the environment.

  • Aesthetics. The intermodal look creates a clean proportionate design that is visually pleasing. The facades are often remade to incorporate a wood look for those choosing an above ground pool.

  • Speed. Because the unit is already built with a filtration system and staircase, the setup usually takes less than a day. Compare this to building an inground pool, which can take at minimum 4-6 weeks (add more time for a patio etc.)

  • Sustainability. Not only eco friendly, but built with the usual strength and portability of shipping containers.

  • Relocatable. The very nature of a shipping container is that that are rather easy to move around. Whether these are above ground or inground, they are easily movable

  • Still wondering? You can see how this works with our video.
