History
Miller Container was founded in 1959 by Tom Miller. Tom was able to utilize his winnings from the Irish Sweepstakes and start the long lasting foundation of Miller Container. To this day, Aggressor, the horse that crossed the finish line for Tom, is part of our company logo.

Tom Miller sold the company to Jerry VanSeveren and Jay Vonderhaar in 1986. Over a 15 year time span, Jay and Jerry were able to take Miller Container to the next level. Through various plant investments, Miller Container grew from a 180 employee based operation to over 300 employees.

Upon announcing their retirement in 2001, Eric VanSeveren and Mike Vonderhaar purchased the company from Jay and Jerry. In the last 5 years, Eric and Mike have invested over $20,000,000 into state of the art equipment and facilities. These investments have made Miller Container the best equipped and diverse corrugated company in the Midwest.

Today, the Miller Container Team has grown to over 470 strong. Each team member plays a key part in dazzling our customers across the United States.
