A shipping container office is a converted steel container designed for use as a functional workspace. These units come fully insulated, with options such as electrical fittings, lighting, heating, and secure doors. You can include desks, partitions, and shelving to create a professional environment quickly and efficiently.

They are available in a range of standard sizes, typically 10ft, 20ft, or 40ft, and can be stacked or linked to form larger office suites, or even meeting rooms, toilet facilities, kitchens, drying rooms, and more. This flexibility allows you to adjust the layout as your business grows or relocates.

Can you use a shipping container as an office?

Yes, you can use a shipping container as an office if the design, layout, and compliance requirements are properly addressed. Containers offer a strong steel structure, making them secure and resistant to weather when maintained correctly. Their modular design also allows easy transport and placement on different sites.

In many cases, a shipping container office is actually preferable to renting a traditional office, thanks to the versatile design options and the ability to easily relocate. Office shipping containers can be located at your home too, as we offer bespoke garden room containers which are suited to your every need, including office spaces!

Site office container benefits

Site office containers have revolutionised the way we use offices, particularly in the construction and industrial sectors. Here are the key advantages of utilising site office containers:


Speed of Deployment - Unlike traditional structures, container offices arrive pre-fabricated and ready to use. This capability means your team can be operational almost immediately, keeping project timelines on track.

Durability and Security - Built from high-grade steel, these containers are designed to withstand harsh weather and rugged site conditions. Their robust construction also provides excellent security for expensive equipment, documents, and personnel against theft or vandalism.

Mobility and Flexibility - One of the greatest assets is portability. As your project evolves or moves to a new location, the office can be easily transported with it. They are also modular, allowing you to stack or join units to expand space as your workforce grows.

Cost-Effectiveness - Converting a container is significantly cheaper than building a temporary structure. There are no foundation costs or long construction delays, making it a budget-friendly choice for both short-term and long-term projects.


Container offices aren’t just suitable for construction though. Consider a cosy but well-equipped home office in your garden as well.
