Learn how to be a smart modular classroom customer.

Shopping online to rent or buy a modular classroom is much like shopping for a car - there are many advertisements that follow you around from web page to social media and back. In some cases these advertisements are set up by companies with no experience in designing, selling or installing modular classrooms yet they want to connect you with companies that can help you. It's the middle man model and it can waste a lot of your time and money. The difference between these services and calling me can save you a bundle of time and, in many cases help you become the ideal client for a modular classroom supplier - and this puts you in the driver's seat as a buyer.

Why me? Well let's just say that I'm a "life time member" of the modular building business and have learned what works and what doesn't for literally every type of modular classroom project. Sharing this information with school facility managers, church administrators and daycare operators is now what I do for a living and it's rewarding to see happy modular building customers.

When you call the Modular Building Hotline (800) 806-7485 you are taking the first step to learning what you need to know before you set up a budget and begin any contract with a modular building supplier. Once we connect I will guide you through these important questions:

1. How to calculate the amount of space you need.
2. How to select the ideal site to install your modular classroom.
3. What you need to know about obtaining a permit for a modular classroom.
4. Whether to rent or purchase a modular classroom.
5. If a new modular building or used modular is best for your school or church space need.

"Green" Modular Building Fact #1

Being "green" is a big deal in the construction business and modular buildings are ecologically friendly for more reasons than most people think. Here is"green" fact #1 about modular buildings, portable classrooms and pretty much any type of prefabricated structure that is designed for human occupancy:

FACT #1. Modular building manufacturing facilities help reduce traffic and pollution. Simply put, when building materials are delivered to one location fewer trucks are needed. Think about a traditional general construction company that has multiple projects underway within a 200 mile radius of its office. Trucks with all types of building materials are needed to service each and every job site. Now compare that to a modular building manufacturer that can build several buildings per day in the same location. Not only is material transportation reduced but some materials can be stored for future builds which helps manufacturers stay on schedule and be less dependent on same day material deliveries.

In addition to reducing material transportation modular builders cut down on employee's vehicle usage by giving them one place to report to each day. Not only does this ease commuter traffic and fuel consumption but it makes carpooling and public transportation real possibilities. Oh, and by the way, employees seem less stressed when their commute is easy... and this always helps productivity!

Here you can find some other interesting facts about why modular buildings are green.

If you want to build green hopefully FACT #1 will encourage you to "drive" to a modular building manufacturer and take a tour of their facility.

Are permits needed for a modular building?

Modular building permit, do I need one?

Many people ask me if permits are required for modular buildings and portable classrooms and my answer is always a quick YES!

The first step you should take before you make a final decision to rent or buy a modular building is to visit your local building and safety department with a floor plan of the modular building or portable classroom you need, the address where it will be installed and a good description of how the structure will be used. Be prepared to explain your plans to one of the planners and take good notes. If all goes well you will be told that you will be allowed to use the modular building under a conditional use permit or a building permit - as long as you follow the procedures required by the city.

Here is some of the information you should be prepared to discuss:

1. Where will the modular building or portable classroom be located?
2. What will the modular be used for (classroom, office, retail)?
3. Will the modular building have plumbing, if so where will it connect to existing plumbing on the property?
4. Where will the electrical be connected?
5. Is there enough parking to accommodate employees, students, customers?
6. What are your plans for handicap access?
7. How long will the modular building be used?

If you would like to talk about permits and some 'best practices' for using a modular building feel free to give me a call. You can use the toll free Modular Building Hotline at (800) 806-7485.

Schools Sell and Donate Their Portable Modular Classrooms

Portable Modular Classrooms for Sale or Donation

This time of the year I seem to get several calls from school districts in the U.S. that want to get rid of perfectly good used portable modular classrooms. Why? So they can either move new modular classroom trailers in or they recently completed construction and no longer need the temporary portables currently on site.

For example, today I received a call from a contractor who is responsible for removing twenty-four 24' x 40' modular classrooms from a school campus in Riverside County, California and all they want is $2,000 each plus the cost of removal. A few days ago I took another call from a large church in Georgia that has a 36' x 60' modular classroom to remove- for next to nothing.

In some cases a school district or church will simply donate their modular buildings to another organization in need of space - this leaves only the costs for removal, transportation and set up. What a deal. In many other instances the portables can be purchased for a very affordable price.

Who Needs OSHA Stairs?

Metal OSHA Trailer Stairs

Are you searching for OSHA stairs for your modular building or steps for your trailer?

Finding a set of OSHA approved steel or aluminum stairs for a modular building, mobile office trailer, construction field office or mobile home can be tricky - especially since this is not something you need to buy that often. Before you contact a supplier do this:

1. Take some basic measurements from the bottom of your door to the ground and the width of the door or opening.

2. Decide which way you want the steps to exit and how you want the handrails configured.

3. If you can take some photos of the modular building structure or trailer and doors these will help the supplier get your order correct.

4. Use the Quick Price Quote Comparison form below to get the best prices and fastest delivery of any type of steps for a mobile modular building, office trailer, portable classroom, storage trailer or mobile home.

Find California Used Portable Classroom at Below Market Prices

How about a used portable classroom in California?

Typical used portable classrooms in
storage facility in California.

California schools have been using portable modular classrooms to solve space needs for decades and now thousands of them are available to buy or rent. The typical California DSA (Division of the State Architect) classroom is 24' x 40' and has 960 square feet of open teaching space. These models come equipped with heat and air conditioning, carpet or tile floor finishes, tile ceiling, slider windows, doors with panic hardware and metal handicap ramps for access.

* Remember that a used portable may look a bit shabby at first but with a fresh coat of paint and some cleaning it can be nicely converted into looking like new.

Here are a few tips if you are in the market for classroom space and want to save some money:

Modular School Building Checklist

A modular school building can be a great space solution if
planned, built and installed properly. 

So you are searching for a modular school building and your check list of items is growing phone call by phone call? To buy or rent any type of a modular building for a school, church or daycare is relatively easy but when it comes to student housing, safety, security and overall comfort for occupants of any educational facility, you need to do your homework.

Here is my modular school facility checklist that I have used with school facility managers and operators of school buildings for years. Feel free to use this list while you speak with your local modular school building companies, school board members and even teachers.

Modular School Building Checklist

1. Do you know the floor plan and dimensions of the modular school building you need?
2. Do you know where you will be able to locate the modular building on your campus or property?
3. Is there easy access to the location on your campus or will obstacles need to be taken into consideration during the delivery and installation of the modular school building?

Customize Your Modular Building Floor Plan

Can we change the floor plan of a rental modular building to meet our specific office layout needs?

I get this question quite a bit - especially from people who need their office trailer to have a very specific number of offices, conference rooms, classrooms, bathrooms, etc., and my answer is always a simple YES!

Customizing a modular
building is easy.

Modular office buildings are built to be modified with ease. In fact it has become common practice for modular suppliers to have in-house and sub contracted work crews just to remove and build-out customized floor plans for tenants who are either renting or buying the structure. The costs to modify the modular are usually charged up front and if the modifications are very unique there may even be a charge to remove the modifications and return the modular back to its original floor plan when the rental term is finished.

So when it's time for you to order a modular office trailer or portable classroom have a simple floor plan ready to show the supplier and don't forget to plan for furniture.

You can get a price quote and floor plans from multiple suppliers in your area by using the iModularBuildings.com Price Quote Form.

It seems like modular is now a better option then traditional building," stated one private daycare operator in Miami, Florida.

Need Space? Rent A Modular Office Trailer

It is easy to outgrow office space when demand for products and services reaches an all time high - creating a need for more space and more employees. When this happens it's not easy for commercial, government and nonprofit operations to add permanent office space because of the time and cost of construction, and often the additional space is only required temporarily. Additionally, it does not make sense to invest in high dollar construction when all that is really needed is temporary office style space. Used modular office buildings offer an excellent alternative that can fulfill a variety of business needs without a large outlay of money or a long construction timeline.
