Quick answer
Site preparation for a container home means a level, drained base, clear access for delivery, and planned service connections. Prepare these while the unit is in transit so it can be placed and connected without delay. The foundation can be pads, piles or a slab, depending on your soil.
- Level, drained base is the priority
- Clear access for the delivery vehicle and lifting
- Plan power, water and waste before the unit lands

Start with the base
A container unit needs a level, well-drained base. Depending on your soil and climate that can be concrete pads, screw piles, or a graded slab. Getting this right avoids distortion and rust later.
Drainage and the base of the unit
Water against the base is what starts corrosion. Grade the site away from the unit, keep the underside ventilated, and route run-off clear. This single step protects the building for years.
Access for delivery
Plan how the unit gets from the road to the pad. Container units need room for the delivery vehicle and for lifting equipment. Check for overhead lines, tight gates and soft ground before the day.
Service connections
Bring power, water and waste to the unit, or to a central point if you are placing several units. Running services from one shared point and branching to each unit is where multi-unit sites save money.
Timing
Do the site work while your unit is in transit. A unit that arrives onto a finished pad and ready services goes straight into use, while one that waits on a foundation sits idle and costs you time.
