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.
6. How to optimize your buying power and shop for the best supplier and best price.

Give me a call...I'm here to help you "piece" together your modular classroom project!

24'x60' Modular Classroom

Modular Classroom rental information

This month's price and floor plan requests for 24'x60' and 36'x60' modular buildings and portable classrooms picked up here and at our sister web site iModular.com. Several daycare center programs and private schools inquired about available floor plans and rental prices. Suppliers are currently working with these people answering questions about permits and designing floor plans to meet specific needs.

"We are in need of temporary space during renovation of our school. Modular is the only option for us unless we moved everyone off campus" stated a private school administrator from Los Angeles, California.

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.

Should I Rent or Buy a Portable Modular Classroom in Texas?

What are the options for Portable Modular Classrooms in Texas?

This is the most common question I answer for schools, daycare centers and churches across the U.S.... and Texas is no exception! First of all, a "Modular Classroom" is the same thing as a "Portable Classroom" in the U.S. While the sizes and configurations may change from supplier to supplier the names refer to the same type of structure. People in Texas have called me using words like portable, modular, temporary, even classroom trailer to describe their needs.

A tip for finding a Used Modular Classroom or Building

Here's a tip. Schools and churches use modular buildings regularly to meet temporary and permanent space needs. When they are done using the trailers they usually are willing to sell them at reasonable, sometimes very good prices. This can help you save thousands of dollars.

Try calling your local churches and schools - especially if they have portables on site or try giving the people at iModular.com a ring. They seem to know where all the best deals are in the United States. Call and ask for Matt Banes at (714) 442-2757 ext. 108.

What should you take in to consideration when assessing Modular Building Cost? 

Lots of people use iModular to get the best price possible to rent or buy a modular building or portable modular classroom; however, we get phone calls and emails asking questions about other costs involved in using a modular structure. Here are the most common additional costs excluding either a monthly rent payment or the actual purchase price, license fees and taxes for the modular:

1. Delivery & return delivery.
2. Installation & removal - either on a temporary pier and pad foundation or on a more costly permanent foundation. Removal at the end of your rental period.
3. Utility connections - electric, water, sewer, telecommunications.
4. Permits - issued by the city or county where the modular will be used.
5. Accessibility - steps and/or a handicap ramp to all doors.
6. Cleaning and repair upon return.
7. Furniture rental or purchase and moving expenses.

If you are searching for a modular building supplier to answer your questions about the costs, provide pricing and help you with permits we suggest using our Free Price Request Form.

New or Used Modular Building?

Should you get a New or a Used Modular building?

We get this question a lot.."is it better to buy a new modular building or a used one?" Here's our advice.

Modular building suppliers typically have used modular buildings in stock and available "as is" or you can request floor plan modifications to meet your specific space needs. This is the less expensive option as long as you are comfortable with the square footage, condition, warranty and price. This option will also save you time. Used modular buildings can last a long time if they have been maintained properly so ask the sales person about the service history of the modular before you buy.

If you prefer having a new modular building most suppliers will work with you to design a new structure complete with the finishes and specifications you need for your business, school or church. This option gives you some helpful flexibility with the specifications compared to a used modular building and the warranty will cover a lot more. Obviously "building new" is more time consuming and expensive as well.

New or Used Modular Building

I suggest using the free iModular.com Buyer Price Request page. The online form takes 2 minutes to complete and local suppliers will call you with prices and answers to your specific modular building questions the same day.
