Important! Don't forget these "other costs" that are not included in the rental or purchase price of a modular building or classroom:
  • Permits and Utilities. Always factor in the cost of obtaining the required permits and for all utility work including connecting your structure to existing or new utilities. Check with your local building and safety department and your modular building supplier for estimates.

  • Delivery/ Return Delivery. Suppliers and manufacturers have got to deliver each section of a modular building to your site and return them whenever you are done using the building. These costs can range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand depending upon the number of modules, distance and ease of access to the site.

  • Installation/Removal. After delivery and before return delivery each module needs to be set into place and or removed from the foundation. This involves installing a foundation, setting or removing the modules, interconnecting/disconnecting the modules and utilities, weatherproofing and interior finishing. These costs will range from a thousand dollars up depending upon the size of the modular and scope of work.

  • Access (Installation and removal of handicap access ramp, stairs, walkways). Depending upon your needs access is a must and you have several options including renting steps and ramps, paying to have them custom built, paying for installation and removal.
