Storage Container Modifications
Comments (0) Everyday hundreds of storage containers are being unloaded at our ports by importers, but what happens when the’re emptied? It would cost the importer too much money to send the empty container back to it’s origin, and why would they? Just so you know they are not just left there to rott, but are on sold to shipping container companies to service and resell.
Most of the used containers are just refurbished and resold to exporters or other industries such as construction, mining or transport companies, though these used containers also have have other purposes.
Container King not only sell quality new and used shipping containers, but they also construct specialised shipping container products made from these used storage containers purchased from these ports. Below you can find some of the main container conversions that Container King Specialise in:
Site Offices – site offices are constructed from used storage containers and marketed to the construction industry. Container King are able to custom build these to the clients specifications depending on the needs. The can be easily fitted with side personnel doors, windows, fixed desks, airconditioning, power and phone then transported to the site where it’s needed. Site offices are normally used as a base to coordinate worker and store important documents on-site. These days a site office is a necessity on any construction site as they increase the efficiency of the development in progress.
Lunchrooms – these are similar to sight offices though they are also fixed with an internal kitchenette so workers can have there lunch breaks on-site. These modified shipping containers are also found on many construction and mine sites.
Portable Workshops – these containerised workshops speed up productivity at any work site as they can be fixed with heavy duty work benches and shelving, multiply power outlets for power tools, vents and whirlybirds for ventilation, side rollerdoors for easy access and removable ramps for easy loading.

Accommodation Units – accommodation for employees can be costly and a pain to arrange so that’s why we developed a transportable accommodation unit.
