Portable classrooms (or modular classrooms) have quickly become the go-to option for schools looking to broaden their student body. With the perks of affordability, set up speed, and mobile efficiency, its easy to see why the portable alternative to traditional site-built structures has become such a popular solution.
Schools often face challenges when an extra room is needed to host classes. Construction of a new room can be expensive, time consuming, and the construction work itself can often be distracting to other students.
Let’s take a closer look at some of those advantages:
Mobility
Unlike stationary site-built classrooms, portable classrooms can be up and on the move whenever and wherever you like, as long as you have the space. Portable classes can be transported to and from a school as needed, which is extremely convenient if extra space is only needed temporarily (for example, during exam season).
Speed
For many schools, a growing student body is an issue that requires an immediate solution. Portable modular classrooms can be constructed in up to half the time it takes to build a conventional structure. Depending on the immediacy of the problem, a modular classroom may prove to be the best solution due to its quick turnaround time. Generally a modular building can be built and delivered in as quickly as 12 weeks.
Cost
Depending of course on the level of customization you wish to apply to your portable building, you’ll most likely find its construction and delivery to be much cheaper than any quote a site-built room might total to.
With portable rooms, you’re also getting top-notch quality in your build. High standards are maintained in each detail of the build, and if the room can withstand the transportation process it can certainly handle many years of boisterous children!
