Reusable Shipping Containers
Alaska Structures® is your one-stop shop for reusable shipping container solutions. We design these containers to fit your building requirements and short- or long-term project needs.
Shipping Made Easy with Reusable Shipping Containers
Fabric buildings and quick-erect shelter systems from Alaska Structures have many choices regarding transportation and storage options. AKS Industries™ (the Alaska Structures parent corporation) manufactures a series of reusable shipping containers. These containers allow our clients to quickly and easily transport our fabric building solutions to any global location.
Alaska Structures offers the following container solutions:
- Rotomolded containers
- Aluminum containers
- Wood crates
Rotomolded Containers
Rotational molding (aka “roto casting”) is a manufacturing process that involves slowly rotating molds filled with a heated material to form large plastic items and parts.
AKS Industries owns and operates rotomolded machines for producing top-quality, heavy-duty reusable containers. Using a proprietary blend of materials, our rotomolded containers feature forklift pockets and provide a watertight, weather-resistant, impact-resistant and stackable storage solution capable of holding up to 1,800 pounds!
Alaska Structures produces rotomolded containers in three sizes. Our most popular reusable container is the Alaska Large Rotomolded Container.

Our wood shipping crates are an economical alternative for delivering your prefabricated building system to your jobsite or remote camp system.
