Small Office, Big Benefits: a Shipping Container as a Workspace
Looking for using a shipping container as a workplace? Container King explains all of the alternative ways to use containers.
If you’re a project manager or site manager, you know most of your important work is done behind the scenes, poring over paperwork, sitting at a desk, working on the computer – all to make sure the job is progressing seamlessly. But attempting to complete all these tasks at the job site where the project is taking place can be a challenge to say the least.
There are frequent distractions and interruptions when you’re in plain sight. And renting office space away from the job site seems counterproductive because it takes you away from the in-the-trenches action so you can’t keep your finger on the pulse of progress.
An enclosed office space that gives you privacy yet places you on site would be ideal. Why not consider a 20-foot shipping container to address your needs? It’s the perfect size and will fit easily into your budget.

Twenty-foot shipping containers make ideal offices when…
Space is Limited
The best thing about these containers is that they’re small enough to fit anywhere. Due to their compact size, 20-foot containers feature a smaller footprint versus alternative structures such as standard portable offices. You can easily place them within larger warehouses or next to existing buildings. If you think about a container as a small office within a larger operation, you will realize how space efficient this option really is.
Efficiency and Mobility are a Must
Because shipping containers are typically modified off-site, it’s basically a drop-off-and-go situation. It can be placed anywhere you want on the property, as long as it’s on stable ground. Then, you can start using it right away. Once your project is done and you have to relocate, you can just move the container to the new site.
You Need Privacy and Security
Warehouses are always in flux, with a lot of movement due to people working or the flow of inventory. An enclosed office gives you a quiet, private space in which to get paperwork done or conduct important meetings, all while staying accessible to your employees on the floor should they need you. Plus, you get peace of mind knowing your documents will be safe and away from disruption.
You Need to Look Professional
With a neat, clean 20-foot shipping container as workplace, you can invite guests into that space with confidence. You don’t have to worry about a cluttered, unprofessional space like you would if you used an unstable portable structure or a desk and chair shoved into a corner. A shipping container looks secure and professional for the ultimate in first impressions.
