Building type

Portable Buildings

A building that can be transported between sites — for offices, classrooms or accommodation.

Our expandable container homes close down to 5,800 × 2,150 × 2,500 mm, so two travel in a single 40' high-cube container. They can be supplied empty for use as offices, and can be packed up again and moved with a team of people.

Questions

Common questions about portable buildings

Can the home be moved easily?
The home can be packed up again and moved, but you will need a team of people.
What is the weight of the Oslo Grand?
2.8 metric tons.
Can the building be changed to fit my needs?
Yes. You can upgrade the panelling for better insulation in cold climates. If you want it empty, for example to build offices, that's also possible. Interior walls can be removed, as can the kitchen or bedrooms. Anything more complicated than these simple changes needs to be discussed with us, and there may be an engineering fee.
