Portable Buildings, Septic Systems, and Water Storage in the Southwest.


Building a homestead or managing a ranch in the high desert of Apache County comes with unique challenges—from heavy monsoon runoff to the need for reliable water hauling. At SJ Portables, we don’t just sell products; we provide the essential infrastructure needed for life in St. Johns, Concho, Witch Well, and the surrounding rural communities.


Built for the Apache County Landscape

Living off-grid near St. Johns means dealing with unpredictable weather and remote logistics. We specialize in solutions tailored to our local terrain:

  • Customizable Portable Buildings: Whether you need a tiny home shell for a remote lot in Concho or a sturdy garage to protect equipment from the Arizona sun, our buildings are built to last.
  • Secure Storage Containers: Protect your gear from the elements and wildlife with weather-resistant new and used containers—perfect for ranching tools or seasonal storage.
  • Water & Septic Essentials: Water is gold in the high desert. We stock high-capacity water storage tanks for hauling and rainwater harvesting, along with complete septic systems and chambers designed for local soil conditions.
  • Drainage & Culverts: Don’t let the monsoons wash out your access road. We provide and install galvanized steel culverts to keep your driveway intact during the rainy season.


Your Local Partner in Remote Living

Since 2008, we’ve been the trusted choice for families and businesses throughout Arizona, New Mexico, and the Navajo Nation. We understand the logistics of delivering to remote "off-the-map" locations where others won't go.

Our commitment to quality and local expertise is why SJ Portables remains the first choice for residents building their future in the Southwest.
