Portable Storage Containers Benefits & Varieties

Portable storage containers have come a long way since containerization began in the 1780s. Not only are these storage containers bigger, but they are now stronger and made out of materials like 14 gauge steel. Present containers also come in different sizes, including 10, 20, 40 feet depending on one's storage needs.

In such cases, portable containers originally meant for storage can also double as work and/or living accommodations for many businesses and companies. Storage units like these are convenient because they can be delivered on site for the duration of time it is needed. For businesses that conduct operations in the field for extended periods of time, temporary offices like these can provide basic living and office amenities.

Mobile offices like these have many benefits. Aside from being able to move them to remote and inaccessible locations, these custom office solutions can be divided into sub-spaces or simply left open to maximize space. Additionally, these units eliminate the need to build a physical office structure on the property that will take up permanent space

.

For maximum durability and secure storage, most portable storage containers are designed with 14 gauge steel. Security shutters over windows, cargo or roll-up doors, and vinyl floors are just some of the modifications that can be made on the storage units. For basic office and living accommodations, electric, lighting, air conditioning, heating, and bathroom fixtures can also be installed for convenience. Once finished, the storage units can be used as guard shacks, temporary offices in construction sites, concession stands, and even classrooms.
