Storage Bins - Liquid/Dry For Sale in COUNTY GALWAY

The first type of portable unit in this category is the container, which will usually be a shipping container which has been specially adapted to allow the interior to accommodate people for a number of purposes. The shipping container form factor is chosen because of course this makes the module easy to load on to the rear of a truck and transport it from place to place when it is needed elsewhere. And containers are both inexpensive to acquire second-hand and relatively easy to convert into a robust, well-equipped working environment.

Why Use a Container

Containers can be used as makeshift offices, staff rooms, changing facilities and break rooms, depending on the interior components that are offered. They can come with basic plumbing, including water heaters and sinks, to improve their practicality. And with different specifications chosen by owners, those buying second-hand will need to check what the container offers and whether all of the functions are in working condition. Security shutters to protect the contents during deployment and also keep the weather out could be desirable.

Containers for Office Use

Cabins, unlike containers, will not feature full metal bodies and relatively stark exteriors. Instead, they will be purpose-built for the construction industry, allowing similar levels of portability while delivering a less austere and more comfortable interior experience. Cabins may be stackable to enable a second tier of them to be accommodated without increasing the footprint of the entire assembly. But of course they will be less innately durable and hardy than converted shipping containers, which is why it is important to assess the structural integrity of a second-hand unit of this kind to avoid disappointment.

There are many other containers on offer within this category, including vehicles with integrated containers for a variety of equipment that may be useful in particular industries. You can also find vehicles which are dedicated to the manoeuvring of shipping containers, which may be useful when it comes to moving containerised offices around a site or loading them on to lorries for transporting to the next job. Whether it's a container or cabin packed with cutting-edge equipment or a more basic model that has seen many years of service, it is not a good idea to become complacent when buying used. Draw up a list of requirements and see to it that the units you select tick all the boxes and have been thoroughly examined to prevent any surprises cropping up a little further down the road.
