Prefabricated, flat-pack insulated container homes — Rockwool-insulated steel-framed panels made by Cool Room Master in Wingfield, delivered flat-packed for you to assemble, right across SA. Rockwool-insulated panels, transparent factory-direct pricing from $5,999, no east-coast special order.
Why buy an Adelaide-made container home
Most “container home” sellers in South Australia special-order units from the eastern states or resell someone else’s build. We’re different: Cool Room Master manufactures its own insulated panels in Adelaide, so a Cool Room Master container home is factory-direct — real specs, honest pricing and faster delivery across SA.
- Adelaide-made & stocked — built at 75 South Terrace, Wingfield SA, not shipped in from interstate.
- Rockwool-insulated steel-framed panels — non-combustible core, strong acoustic and thermal comfort for SA summers and winters.
- Transparent pricing from $5,999 — configure size, windows and doors and see the price, no quote-form maze.
- Delivered across South Australia — metro Adelaide, the Hills, Barossa, Fleurieu, Yorke & beyond.
What people use them for
An insulated container home works as far more than a shed. Common South Australian builds:
A self-contained backyard living space for family or rental.
A quiet, insulated work-from-home or creative studio.
Durable rural accommodation, worker’s quarters or a site office.
They also make compact tiny homes and pop-up retail/hospitality spaces. Tell us the use and we’ll spec the insulation, doors and windows to suit.
Delivery & site preparation across SA
We deliver your flat-packed kit for you to assemble; you prepare the site (a level, compacted hard-stand with support pads — a full concrete slab isn’t always required). Prefer not to DIY? Add our optional installation service and our crew delivers and levels it onto your pads. Either way, getting the base right first avoids a wasted delivery.

Are your container homes made in Adelaide?
Yes. We manufacture our insulated panels in Wingfield, SA, and deliver the flat-packed kit across South Australia — no interstate special order.
How much does a container home cost in Adelaide?
From $5,999 for a compact insulated shell; granny-flat configurations with windows and doors typically run ~$8,000–$14,000. Configure yours for an exact price.
Can I use a container home as a granny flat?
Yes — they’re popular as secondary dwellings. Habitable use usually needs council development approval and engineering; check with your local council first.
Are they insulated?
Yes — Rockwool-insulated, steel-framed panels give non-combustible fire performance plus strong thermal and acoustic comfort for SA conditions.
Do I need a concrete slab?
Not always. A compacted hard-stand with support pads suits many installs; a slab is best for permanent dwellings. See our site preparation guide.
Do you deliver across South Australia?
Yes — metro Adelaide plus the Hills, Barossa, Fleurieu, Yorke Peninsula and regional SA (freight quoted by location).
