West Coast Container Homes

our story Being in the construction industry for more than 25 years, the company’s founder, Adam Benning, developed a moral dilemma about some of the unfortunate realities of the residential renovation industry. With excessive waste filling up the landfills and extensive resources going into creating large homes, he decided to shift his focus. This prompted him to embark on a journey that continued to allow him to build high-quality products for amazing clients but to do so on a smaller scale, and in a more sustainable manner. Our mission is to create living spaces that are built to last a lifetime, using local materials and trades wherever possible. Minimal waste production and creating a small carbon footprint are things we value highly, and strive to achieve on a daily basis. Our mission is to provide high-quality, functional and sustainable solutions to the problems people face in their lives today. We are committed to top-notch customer service, constantly striving to make every interaction a GREAT one right across the board, from top to bottom. We pride ourselves on simplicity and crystal clear clarity of process, which, when combined with great communication, allows us to deliver a truly unique building experience like no other. Our Core Values provide a guiding light for us to do what we do every day. They are the beating heart from which everything else in our company stems from, and have become the fabric of who we are, what we are about and why we do what we do. At West Coast Container Homes, people are everything. Our core values stem from the individuals who bring passion, gratitude, and positivity to our work. Understanding each person’s strengths and personality is key to their success and our success as a team. We strive to match individuals with roles that suit them best to avoid mismatched situations. Let’s discover your strengths and personality together to set you up for success in your lane. Work should be a source of passion and excitement, driving us to feel accomplished and confident. Finding tasks that align with our strengths and challenge us in a team setting can lead to a sense of personal pride and fulfillment. Pursuing what excites and challenges us daily creates a fulfilling work experience, allowing us to feel epic and frothy more often. Achieving great things brings a sense of accomplishment and pride, enabling us to reflect on our past achievements with gratitude. This gratitude grows over time as we set goals and conquer them. Taking moments to appreciate our opportunities and how they shape our actions is vital for growth and fosters a positive outlook. Adam was born and raised in New South Wales, Australia. He spent five years in Sydney construction circles which taught him a lot of the skills he would later put to use halfway across the world. In 2001 Adam moved to Canada and has since enjoyed living and working on Vancouver Island, running a small residential construction company based in Victoria. He has built a reputation for quality craftsmanship and is well known for his keen attention to detail in both design and construction. Adam also has a passion for the great outdoors and enjoys spending most of his spare time exploring the vast ocean and forests of western Vancouver Island. It is this love of nature and the great outdoors which has inspired his search for a more sustainable way of living and the launch of West Coast Container Homes.
