Which construction container to choose? Overview of types and applications

A container is a practical and versatile solution that serves as a social facility, tool storage or office for the project manager. Thanks to its robust construction, such a container is weatherproof and provides safe storage for equipment and documentation. The containers are often equipped with electrical installation and heating, which allows for comfortable working regardless of the season. The container's mobility enables it to be easily transported, allowing it to be quickly adapted to the changing needs of the construction site. Thanks to their quick assembly and disassembly, construction containers are ideal for dynamically changing construction sites.

The office container offered by Ramirent's construction machinery rental companies is an excellent choice for construction sites, due to its exceptional functionality and flexibility. It is ideally suited as:

• an office container as an office for the site manager,
• an office container as a room for engineers and architects,
• an office container as a meeting place for subcontractors.

Thanks to their functionality and design, these office containers are also a great choice for the arrangement of social rooms, living quarters, cloakrooms or accommodation areas. The office container is characterised by complete office furniture, including windows, doors and electrical installation, which ensures convenient work and comfort. In addition, its modular design allows for any arrangement of space, as well as combining containers to create buildings with a larger surface area. There is the possibility of stacking - up to three storeys.

A sanitary container is an essential hygiene facility on any construction site, ensuring comfort and compliance with health and safety regulations. Ramirent's construction equipment rental company offers the rental of sanitary containers in various configurations, adapted to the needs of the construction site. With the possibility of different combinations, these containers can function as a kitchen or bathroom.

Available variants:

• Toilet containers - equipped with toilets
• Shower containers - with water heaters, suitable for a large number of users
• Washroom containers - with water installation and water heating system
• Combined containers - various configurations: more toilets, fewer showers and wash basins or vice versa
• Multi-purpose containers - combining toilets, showers, wash basins and kitchen furniture such as a kitchenette.

Sanitary containers not only provide convenience but also meet all sanitary-epidemiological requirements, which is particularly important for long-term construction work. Thanks to their flexibility and mobility, they can be easily adapted to changing construction conditions and staff numbers.

The storage container is an indispensable solution on any construction site for storing and protecting tools and materials from theft and weather conditions. It is the ideal construction container that acts as a warehouse. Ramirent Construction Equipment Rental offers storage containers for hire in a variety of lengths - up to a maximum of 20 feet (6 m), allowing you to tailor the space to suit your individual needs.

The question of declaring a container depends on its purpose, the way it is founded and the time of its use. Polish construction law distinguishes two cases - a container as a temporary object and a building permanently connected to the ground.

Container as a temporary object

If a container is to be set up for a definite period of time, not longer than 180 days, and it is not permanently connected to the ground (e.g. has no foundations), usually only its notification to the relevant office is sufficient. The notification should specify the location and the expected period of use. After 180 days, the container should be removed or relocated, otherwise planning permission may be required.

Container as an object permanently attached to the ground.

This is recognised when the container is set up for more than 180 days, has foundations or is connected to permanent installations (e.g. sewerage, water supply). In this case, it may be necessary to obtain planning permission in accordance with the local development plan or planning conditions.

Local regulations and exceptions

The decision on the required formalities also depends on local regulations and municipal regulations. In some cases, the requirements may differ, so it is advisable to consult with the municipality or district office before setting up the container to avoid legal problems and possible penalties.
