Anschutz Medical Campus — Healthcare and Research Supply: The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus is the anchor of Aurora's identity as a healthcare destination.

Together, the Anschutz campus employs over 15,000 workers and has been undergoing continuous construction and expansion for more than a decade.

Using Shipping Containers in Aurora: What You Need to Know

Before placing a shipping container on your Aurora property, check requirements with the City of Aurora's Community Development Department at (303) 739-7220. Aurora spans three counties — Arapahoe, Adams, and Douglas — so requirements vary by specific address and zoning district.

  • Temporary construction job-site use: generally permitted under your City of Aurora building permit. Confirm requirements for your specific project zone.
  • Permanent placement for storage: may require a zoning review from Aurora's Community Development Department. Commercial and industrial zones are more permissive.
  • Residential zones: Aurora's residential zoning varies across the city's three-county footprint. Check with the Community Development Department before ordering.
  • Container homes and ADU builds: require full City of Aurora building permits and must comply with the Colorado Building Code and applicable ADU regulations.
  • Three-county considerations: Aurora addresses in Adams and Douglas counties may have different zoning authority than those in Arapahoe County. Confirm which jurisdiction governs your specific parcel before ordering.
