Farmers Store Seeds, Grains, and More in Shipping Containers

Nearly two-thirds of Indiana is farmland. It’s no surprise, then, that savvy Indiana farmers have put shipping containers to use for them.


Farm Implement Storage

For example, farmers may store farm equipment, implements, or tractors in new and used shipping containers. This extends and expands the size and locations of their barns and reduces their overhead costs.


Seed and Grain Storage

Additionally, farmers have converted shipping containers into seed and grain siloes. Modified with wooden bulkheads, these storage containers reduce spillage compared to traditional grain siloes. As a result, fewer seeds scatter to the ground. This deters rodents—especially mice and rats. 

Creative Uses of Containers in Indianapolis and Nearby Areas

Besides farm storage, explore some creative ways that Indianans have repurposed steel shipping containers.

  • Just-in-Time Christmas and Seasonal Storage

    Big box stores often need additional warehouse space, especially during holidays and seasonal sales. To that end, we sell shipping containers to large retailers. 


    This enables them to restock their merchandise—not by waiting for a delivery to arrive—but simply by accessing the storage container in the parking lot behind or beside their store.


    Likewise, an overflow of goods, such as patio tables, chairs, sun umbrellas, wading pools, and other spring or summer merchandise, can extend retail space in the store’s parking lot.


  • Outdoor Workspaces

    Some Container Management, Inc. customers in Indiana and elsewhere buy three 40-foot containers. Placed in a U-shape and topped with a roof, this creates a workplace away from the weather elements. 

  • Company and Personal Storage

    Besides warehousing retail goods, storing farm equipment, and extending workspaces, companies use climate-controlled shipping containers to store paperwork, office equipment, and other items that no longer fit in office spaces.


    Likewise, Americans have a lot of extra “stuff.” It’s estimated that we have enough self-storage units to average one storage unit for every 14 Americans. Self-storage is increasingly a big business in Indiana and throughout the United States.

  • Container Housing in the Indianapolis Area

    Attainable housing in Fishers, Indiana. A luxurious boutique hotel in Indy’s Haughville neighborhood on the West Side. Environmentally friendly townhomes that list for $600,000 to $700,000 in the Kennedy-King neighborhood on the Northside. These are just a few diverse and innovative ways Indiana contractors transform steel shipping containers into living spaces. 

  • Vertical Farms in Urban Indianapolis

    Leafy greens are grown year-round on an urban farm on the Eastside of Indianapolis on East 10th Street. Farmer DeMario Vitalis grows up to 13,000 plants at one time in vertical towers—inside shipping containers. He controls the humidity, light, pH, nutrients, and temperature. 

  • Restaurants, Pools, Event Spaces & More

    Shipping containers are used for a variety of innovative entertainment purposes:

    The Cradle at Monon 30

    An event space called The Cradle on the North Side of Indianapolis transformed an abandoned lumber yard into a weekend concert venue, free entrance, and the availability of food and drink purchases. The food vendors prepare and sell food out of repurposed shipping containers.


    Artisan Food Market Places

    AMP, an Artisan Food Market Place in the 16 Tech Innovation District of Indianapolis, bordered by White River, Fall Creek, and Indiana Avenue. It houses a barber shop, restaurants, coffee shop, deli, and numerous restaurants. AMP is built from customized shipping containers.  


  • Bathrooms

    Rustic weddings, concertgoers, and the Office of Public Safety (OPHS) have transformed shipping containers into portable public restrooms. The restrooms include wheelchair accessibility, flush toilets, and handwashing stations. In downtown Indy, the restrooms are outside the old city hall building near Alabama Street and E. New York Street.
