10ft Office Container: The Essential Site Office Buying Guide

Buying a 10ft Office Container: The Essentials

A 10ft office container makes for a comfortable but compact onsite office. At 10ft x 8ft x 8.6ft, it provides 680 cubic feet of space for furniture, equipment and storage. We find that the 10ft site office container can easily fit multiple desks and chairs or a single desk alongside other office equipment and shelving units.

10ft containers are a cost-effective, durable and secure option for onsite office space. They’re also small enough that you can easily find space for one, no matter how crowded your site is. Plus, they’re easier and cheaper to transport, whether you’re moving them across the site or back to your headquarters.

20ft and 40ft shipping containers are more popular sizes, so you may need to shop around to find a 10ft site office container. Here at CBOX Containers, we stock fully customisable 10ft office containers, complete with a price match guarantee.

What Features to Prioritise in Your 10ft Site Office Container 

Review these five features to make sure your new site office container meets your needs.

#1 The Essentials 
At a minimum, your 10ft office container needs a lockable door, windows and an air conditioning unit. These basic features will ensure your office meets minimum security and comfort levels. This is our standard 10ft site office container product option.

#2 Customisation 
You can opt for additional features, such as insulation, furniture and electrical wiring. We can also build a customised interior based on your business needs, whether you want shelving units or steel flooring. It goes without saying that you can also select different colours, such as blue, black, green and white.

#3 Weatherproofing 
Wind and watertight qualities (WWT) are essential so that your office equipment and paperwork are kept safe from the elements and your team can work comfortably.

#4 Security
Don’t overlook the importance of security, especially if you’re planning to store expensive equipment or confidential information in your site office. In addition to the lockable door, make sure your site office container is made of high-quality steel for better protection against break-ins. All our containers are made of excellent materials and come with Pre-Trip Inspection (PTI) reports and Convention for Safe Containers (CSC) reports.

#5 Delivery 
It’s no use finding the perfect site office container if you can’t get it delivered to your premises. With worldwide depots, we can deliver 10ft office containers to nearly every location. 

We also offer three types of delivery, depending on your site layout. A crane delivery is ideal for lifting your new site office over obstacles, while the sideloader will install it in even the narrowest of spaces. For level ground, you can opt for a tilt tray delivery.

How to Buy a 10ft Office Container: Step by Step

Once you’ve identified the features you’ll need from your site office container, buying it is simple. If you’re short on time, fill out some basic details and we’ll send you a quote to review. Alternatively, you can call us on 1800 433 455 for more information. 

Our quotes come with a price match guarantee, and we’ll also let you know how much delivery will be. There won’t be any unpleasant billing surprises when you purchase your site office container.

Having agreed on the details of your 10ft office container and any customisations, it’s time to decide how you want to pay. You can make a lump sum payment or select a finance plan. In addition to traditional financing, we also offer lease financing. This is a rental contract that allows you to purchase your container for a reduced rate at the end of your contract, if you wish to do so.

Finally, we’ll set a delivery date and make sure that your new office container arrives on site, ready for you to begin using it.

Should You Consider Renting Your Site Office Container Instead?

While buying a 10ft office container can be an excellent business investment, some businesses may find that hiring offers better value for money. 

If you only need a site office container periodically or for a short time, we offer 10ft office rental contracts from $12.95 p.d. Basic customisations are available, including air conditioning, security personnel doors, kitchenette, bathroom, shelving and partition walls.
