Helluva Container

Helluva Container, a leader in sustainable packaging, became the first business in Elk Point, South Dakota, to adopt commercial solar energy—paving the way for others in the region. With a 36.9 kW rooftop system at their main office and an 85.5 kW system at their warehouse, they’re making a lasting investment in both financial savings and environmental responsibility. Helluva’s payback period is as little as 0.9 years, and the average is 2-7 years, meaning they were able to secure a great number of credits & grants so that their system will start paying for itself after only a year. This move aligns perfectly with their business model, which focuses on refurbishing and reselling used Gaylord boxes and packaging materials. By partnering with Artisun Solar, Helluva Container now has a reliable, cost-saving energy source while reinforcing its role as a sustainability leader.
