Sale of modular containers

Modular containers are the ideal solution for those looking for a functional and flexible space as a back-up for an investment project or a mobile office. Modular container is also an excellent solution for seasonal or year-round business operations. Contact Algeco's sales department and learn more about the terms of purchase and delivery of a modular container.

Modules can be freely combined, arranged and equipped to suit your individual needs. Whether you need an office, commercial, residential or sanitary container, you will find the right proposal in Algeco's offer and together we will design and prepare your modular facility. Depending on your budget and intended use, we offer new and used modular containers.

We present a wide range of modular containers designed for versatile applications. It includes both models with standard dimensions and containers prepared to order, taking into account key technical parameters, such as the type of external cladding or the specificity of thermal insulation. We take care to precisely adapt solutions to the investor's indications, taking into account the possible load of the structure and the needs resulting from the planned mode of operation.

The decision to purchase a modular container will be beneficial primarily for companies and institutions that want to build a facility that will be used in one location for a longer period of time. This may apply to both opening a branch of the company in a place with little infrastructure, as well as securing the headquarters for the duration of prolonged construction work. Purchasing a container allows you to become independent from the need to rent or look for traditional development, translating into freedom in space planning. In the case of entities with limited land, modularity also plays an important role, allowing for any configuration and possible expansion in the future.

We also have used models that undergo comprehensive verification in terms of quality and technical condition. Each of them is subjected to a detailed inspection to ensure the appropriate load-bearing capacity of the structure and the functionality of internal installations. Thanks to this, the customer can buy a facility in a satisfactory condition for a lower amount, while gaining a place ready for immediate development. Used containers are especially useful in situations where the planned investment budget is limited and the expected implementation date - short.

Containers available for permanent sale can be immediately equipped with installations necessary to ensure the efficient functioning of employee stations. For offices, we prepare segments with air conditioning, heating devices or electrical wiring.

What is the price difference between renting and buying a modular container?

Buying a container is a one-off investment, whilst renting involves costs spread out over time (approximate prices depend on the configuration and period of use). Buying makes sense for long-term use or if you plan to use the module repeatedly in different locations. We will prepare a detailed cost comparison following a request for a quote.

Do I receive a warranty and after-sales service when I buy a container?

Yes, when you purchase a container, Algeco offers support at every stage of our partnership. We will agree the details of the warranty terms and after-sales service when finalising the purchase. As part of our 360° Service, we can also provide technical support after your purchase – please contact us to discuss the available options.

Is it possible to buy a second-hand container at a lower price?

Yes, Algeco offers second-hand containers that have previously been hired out for other projects. They have been technically inspected and are ready for reuse. The price of a second-hand container is lower than that of a new unit – this is a good solution if you’re on a tight budget.

What formalities are involved in purchasing and obtaining planning permission for a container on your own plot of land?

The formalities involved in placing a container on a plot of land depend on many factors: the nature of the structure, its location, the duration of use and local regulations. Algeco has many years’ experience in delivering container-based projects and can advise on the required procedures. However, before purchasing, it is worth consulting your local council or district office to find out the specific requirements for your particular location.

When buying a modular unit, can I request a bespoke design and fit-out?

Yes, when purchasing, it is possible to customise the modular unit to suit your needs. Our team will design the layout of the rooms, suggest the container’s fittings (furniture, household appliances, installations) and finishes (floors, walls, colours), and can also prepare a proposal for external branding (logo and graphic decals). Algeco will prepare the design based on your requirements.
