Some estimates suggest that there are around 24 million empty, retired shipping containers on our planet. Most containers are retired after only 10 to 15 years use. That being said, there are countless shipping container solutions that can provide functionality and increase the shipping container’s lifespan. A mobile office, for example, is just one shipping container solution growing in popularity. Here are just a few compelling reasons to consider investing in a shipping container mobile office.
Versatile
First, shipping containers are very versatile regarding their capabilities and layout possibilities. Businesses will have complete creative freedom when it comes to configuring an ideal layout that has employees’ best interests in mind and is conducive to productivity. Regardless of the number of employees or amenities required, you can rest assured that there’s a shipping container mobile office that’s right for your needs.
Comfortable
Shipping container mobile offices are naturally spacious and inviting. You can expect your mobile office to come with virtually all the amenities of a traditional office space, including electricity, plumbing, and more. Furthermore, temperature control will not be an issue, as mobile offices can include air conditioning and heat as well. Your employees will be able to work comfortably and stay productive in a mobile office made from repurposed shipping containers.
Affordable
Renting traditional office space in a commercial building can be incredibly costly, especially in major cities. However, some sites estimate that building with containers can lead to a cost savings of up to 40% as compared to traditional construction methods. Taking advantage of a mobile office created from a shipping container allows your businesses to cut back rental costs and allocate the funds toward more essential business operations. You’ll be able to enjoy all of the benefits of traditional office spaces without the financial burden.
Ultimately, container structures are inherently mobile, stackable, durable, weather-resistant, typically require no foundation and average a 25-year lifespan. Understanding these reasons to consider investing in a mobile office is the best way to determine whether or not a shipping container solution could be right for your business.
