At Site Office Hire, we specialise in providing high-quality, modular site offices for hire across the UK. 

Our portable cabins offer flexible, secure, and fully equipped workspaces for use on construction sites, infrastructure projects, utilities, and events. 

Since our site offices are designed for quick installation and all-weather use, they offer a reliable alternative to permanent buildings—without the delay or cost.

Who Uses Site Offices?

Site offices are widely used by construction companies, civil engineering contractors, project managers, event organisers, utility providers, and government agencies. 

Any project that requires a secure, functional workspace near operational activity benefits from having a site office. 

Since they’re mobile, durable, and fully customisable, these units are ideal for short-term projects or long-term developments in remote or urban environments.

How Much Does Site Office Hire Cost?

The cost of site office hire is £50 to £150 per week.

The price depends on the size of the unit, internal features, and length of hire. 

Smaller, standard cabins cost less, while larger units or those with heating, partitioned rooms, or data cabling may carry higher rates. 

As long-term hire often comes with reduced weekly pricing, many clients save money by booking multi-month contracts.

What Are the Benefits of Hiring a Site Office?

Hiring a site office provides immediate, cost-effective access to professional workspace on-site, without the delays or expense of permanent buildings. 

Key benefits include:

• Quick installation with minimal disruption, so you can get operational in days, not weeks.
• Lower upfront costs compared to building or leasing fixed premises.
• Flexible internal layouts for admin functions, meetings, planning, and document control.
• Insulated panels, electric heating, and ventilation for year-round usability in all weather conditions.
• Secure steel construction with anti-vandal features to protect equipment, documents, and personnel.
• Scalable design, with the ability to add, remove, or reconfigure units as your project evolves.
• Custom-fit options such as desks, lighting, partition walls, storage, and whiteboards tailored to operational needs.
• Integrated power, data, and communications to support IT equipment, real-time reporting systems, and project management tools.
• Improved staff productivity by providing a quiet, focused, and comfortable space for coordination and oversight.
• Enhanced privacy and noise control, making it ideal for confidential meetings, calls, or secure documentation.
• Professional appearance on-site, establishing a clear central hub that represents your organisation to clients, contractors, and stakeholders.
• Custom branding options, such as signage, company colours, or decals, to reinforce corporate identity.
• Fast relocation capabilities, allowing the unit to be moved as the site layout or project phase changes.
• Reliable compliance support, with features that help meet CDM and HSE health and safety regulations.
• Short-term or long-term hire availability, with cost-effective options for both project-based and ongoing needs.

What Sizes of Site Offices Are Available?

Site offices are available in a range of sizes, typically from 10ft to 32ft.

Site Office Hire offers the option to link or stack multiple units as needed. 

Larger projects may require multiple offices for admin, meetings, and storage, while smaller teams may only need a single compact cabin. 

As all units are modular, they can be expanded, relocated, or reconfigured as your site evolves.

Can Site Offices Be Used Year-Round?

Site offices are built for year-round use, with insulation, electric heating, and ventilation as standard features. 

Since UK weather conditions can vary widely, thermal performance is essential for maintaining a productive and comfortable environment. 

Optional extras like air conditioning or double glazing are available to further enhance seasonal comfort.

Can Site Offices Be Linked or Stacked?

Multiple site office units can be linked side by side or stacked vertically to create larger, multi-room facilities. 

This is particularly useful on large projects where teams are split across departments or functions. 

As the cabins are modular by design, adding additional space is straightforward and can be done with minimal interruption.

Can Site Offices Be Connected to Utilities?

Site offices can be connected to mains electricity, lighting, data cabling, water, and waste systems, depending on site infrastructure. 

Where mains access isn’t available, units can run off generators and portable water or waste tanks. 

Since utility flexibility is crucial on undeveloped sites, each office is configured to suit its environment.

What Can Be Included in a Site Office?

A site office can be fitted with desks, meeting tables, filing cabinets, internal partition walls, heaters, plug sockets, lighting, whiteboards, and data ports. 

The layout can be customised based on your team’s needs, whether you’re planning a project hub, document control space, or manager’s office. 

Since different roles require different setups, each unit is designed for flexibility and efficiency.

Do You Provide Welfare Facilities With Site Offices?

Welfare facilities including toilets, drying rooms, canteens, and showers can be supplied alongside your site office as part of a complete site setup. 

These units can be connected or placed adjacent to the office for easy access. 

As UK law requires adequate welfare provision on most construction sites, our solutions help you stay compliant with CDM and HSE regulations.

Can Site Offices Be Delivered to Remote or Urban Locations?

Site offices can be delivered to most UK locations, including urban construction zones, rural developments, and infrastructure corridors. 

As we use a fleet of specialist vehicles with crane offload, even restricted-access sites can be accommodated. 

We carry out a delivery access check before confirming placement to avoid delays.

Is Groundwork Required Before Delivery?

Most site offices require only a level, compacted surface or basic jack pads for placement. 

Since the cabins are self-contained and structurally independent, no foundations or extensive groundwork are needed for installation. 

For multi-unit or linked setups, our team will advise on any additional site preparation needed to ensure stability and safe access.

How Quickly Can a Site Office Be Delivered?

Standard site offices can usually be delivered within 24 to 72 hours.

Delivery time depends on your location and unit availability. 

As we maintain a wide stock of pre-assembled cabins, short lead times are possible even for larger projects. Once delivered, installation is typically completed on the same day.

Are Site Offices Secure?

Site offices are built with robust steel exteriors, secure entry doors, and lockable windows to protect equipment, documents, and personnel. 

As many sites are left unattended overnight or over weekends, vandal resistance and theft protection are built into the design. 

Security upgrades such as shutters, alarms, or reinforced locks are also available on request.

Do We Provide Ongoing Support and Maintenance?

Support and maintenance are available throughout the hire period to ensure your office remains fully operational. 

Since site conditions and cabin usage can change over time, we offer a responsive service for faults, repairs, or adjustments. 

This helps prevent downtime and keeps your team working without disruption.

Can Site Offices Be Moved During a Project?

Site offices can be repositioned or relocated as your project progresses. 

Since they are modular and self-contained, moving a unit involves minimal site work and can be completed quickly. 

Our team handles transport and reinstallation to ensure safe movement without affecting daily operations.

Do Site Offices Meet Health and Safety Standards?

All site office units are built to meet current UK health and safety standards and are suitable for CDM-regulated sites. 

Since construction projects require specific welfare and operational facilities, our offices can be configured to support HSE compliance. 

Features such as lighting, heating, ventilation, and accessibility can be included to meet duty-of-care obligations.

How Long Can You Hire a Site Office For?

Hire terms range from as little as one week to several years, depending on your project requirements. 

As our contracts are flexible, you can scale up or down as your site progresses or extend your hire period if timelines change. 

Long-term hires typically benefit from reduced weekly rates and inclusive maintenance support.

What Industries Use Site Offices?

Site offices are used across a wide range of industries, including construction, rail, utilities, infrastructure, energy, logistics, and event management. 

Each of these sectors requires on-site coordination and administration, where permanent offices are unavailable. 

Since modular site offices are easy to deliver and configure, they are the preferred solution for projects that need reliable workspace in a temporary or mobile environment.

Can Site Offices Be Used as Meeting Rooms?

Site offices can be fitted out specifically to function as meeting rooms with large tables, chairs, power points, whiteboards, and presentation screens. 

This setup allows site managers and contractors to hold briefings, toolbox talks, or client meetings on-site without needing external facilities. 

Since effective communication is key to project success, having a dedicated meeting space improves productivity and planning.

Are Site Offices Suitable for Urban Sites with Limited Space?

Site offices are ideal for urban construction sites or city centre projects where space is limited. 

They can be installed on tight plots, stacked to save ground area, or configured into existing site layouts. 

As their footprint is small and setup is quick, they allow project teams to stay operational even in high-density environments.

Can Site Offices Include Accessibility Features?

Accessibility features such as ramps, wide doors, step-free entry, and accessible layouts can be included on request. 

This ensures that site offices comply with the Equality Act and meet the needs of all users, including those with mobility challenges. 

As inclusivity is a legal and ethical requirement, we offer full consultation on access requirements during the planning process.

Can Site Offices Be Branded or Customised?

Branding and custom finishes can be applied to both the interior and exterior of the cabin to reflect your company’s identity. 

Options include external vinyl wraps, signage, custom colours, and internal branding elements. 

As consistent branding enhances professionalism on site, many clients choose to personalise their offices to align with their corporate image.

Can Site Offices Be Used for Project Inductions or Training?

Site offices can be configured as dedicated spaces for inductions, briefings, or staff training sessions.

As health and safety compliance requires new workers to be briefed before starting on-site, having a private, enclosed environment for these sessions is essential.

Units can be fitted with seating, tables, whiteboards, and presentation screens to create a fully functional induction or training room directly on-site.

Is Insurance Required for Hired Site Offices?

Insurance is generally required for hired site offices during the rental period.

Since the hirer assumes responsibility for the unit while it is in use, you may need to insure against risks such as fire, theft, vandalism, or accidental damage.

We recommend checking with your insurer to ensure the cabin is covered under your existing site or contractor policy, and we can provide specifications if required.

Can Site Offices Include IT and Communications Setup?

Site offices can be supplied with integrated IT and communications infrastructure.

As reliable data and connectivity are essential for managing modern construction projects, we offer options such as data cabling, Wi-Fi routers, power sockets, and phone lines.

This allows your team to operate planning software, send reports, and stay connected with the head office from a fully networked on-site workspace.

What Happens at the End of the Hire Period?

At the end of your hire period, we arrange prompt collection and removal of the site office.

Since the units are modular and self-contained, dismantling is fast and requires minimal disruption to the site.

If your project timeline extends, we also offer flexible contract adjustments to extend or scale your hire with minimal administrative delay.

What Are the Environmental Benefits of Hiring a Site Office?

Hiring a site office is a more sustainable alternative to constructing temporary buildings from scratch.

As our cabins are reusable, modular, and built for transport, they significantly reduce material waste and embodied carbon emissions across multiple projects.

This supports corporate sustainability goals while still delivering a high-performance, compliant workspace.
