how it works

From enquiry to picked up

  1. Tell us the job What the building is for, how many people, where it is going and how long you need it. A rough idea is enough to start.
  2. We quote it Building, delivery, install and pickup priced together, so the number you see is the number you pay.
  3. We deliver and set up Delivered to site and positioned. We confirm access and placement with you before the truck arrives.
  4. We pick it up When the job finishes, tell us and we collect. Extend at any point if the job runs long.
when hire beats buying

What people hire short term for

Some jobs do not justify buying a building. These are the ones we are asked for most.

Shutdowns and maintenance windows A planned shutdown puts extra people on site for a few weeks. Hire the office, lunchroom and amenities for the window rather than owning them for the year.
Civil jobs and roadworks Short civil jobs move along the alignment. The buildings go in when the work starts, come out when it finishes, and go to the next site with the crew.
Events and shows Ticket offices, officials rooms and toilet blocks for the run of an event, on site before it opens and collected once it closes.
Emergencies and overflow A flood, a fire, or a sudden jump in headcount. When a building has to be on site this week, hiring is the quickest way to get one there.
While the permanent build goes up Somewhere for the team to work while the permanent building, or a custom portable of your own, is still being built.
Seasonal work Harvest, fire season and summer programs need somewhere to work for months rather than years.

what it costs

How short term hire is priced

Short term hire is quoted per building, by the week or by the month. What it comes to depends on which building you need, how long it is on site and where it is going.

The hire rate, delivery, positioning and pickup are priced together rather than added later, so the figure on the quote is the figure you pay. If the job runs longer than planned you extend the hire rather than start again.

Still weighing hire against buying outright? Ask for both and we will price them side by side.
