ABOUT US
Hi, I am Dan, founder of Hometainer and a licensed builder specialising in modular construction.
I started Hometainer because I saw the potential to create something very different from what most people imagine when they think of a shipping container. With the right design, multiple containers can become spacious, beautifully finished homes, while offering a smarter and more efficient way to build.
Today, we design and build award-winning, council-approved multi container homes across Queensland and New South Wales, with our homes also featured on national television. From initial design and engineering through to approvals, construction, delivery and installation, our team manages the entire process.
Every Hometainer is designed around the people who will live in it. We focus on thoughtful layouts, quality finishes and workmanship, creating homes that are distinctive, comfortable and built for Australian living.
For me, the most rewarding part is seeing an idea that begins on a page become a home our clients are genuinely excited to call their own.
OUR HOMES ARE FOR YOU IF YOU VALUE:
- Quality construction and finishes
- A home designed around you
- Personal service throughout the journey
- A permanent home built to Australian standards
OUR HOMES MAY NOT SUIT YOU IF YOU WANT:
- The cheapest way to build

- A one-size-fits-all design
- A temporary or relocatable home
THE HOMETAINER DIFFERENCE

- Quality finishes included as standard
- Licensed, council-approved & Australian built

We are absolutely in love with our container homes. We 100% recommend hometainer. I did a lot of research prior to engaging hometainer. They are price competitive but I loved that I had the ability to customize everything. I worked with their designer on all details. They were completed in 8 weeks and delivered on site. The after service and pride they take in their workmanship is a credit to them. We are already planning our next project together. Thank you.
