Your Guide to Office Trailer Rentals
If your office is undergoing construction, or you're looking for a command center for a construction site, office trailer rentals are the best solution. Our modular office trailers offer a comfortable, affordable space that will enable your team to stay organized and work as efficiently as possible.
Renting an office trailer from Mobile Modular will provide you with a modern, functional space without the cost or commitment of a permanent structure.
Office Trailer Basics
Office trailers, also known as mobile offices, are often used as jobsite trailers for construction projects or as swing spaces for temporary government, school, or healthcare needs. They may be permanently affixed to a wheeled frame for easy portability, or they can be set directly on the ground after transport.
Why Rent a Mobile Office Trailer?
There are several benefits to getting an office trailer rental, including:
- Fast deployment: Depending on the scope of the project, office trailer rentals can be delivered in months, weeks, or even just a few days. At Mobile Modular, we have a fleet of prefabricated office trailers that are ready for fast deployment when you need them.
- Security: You can add locks to your mobile office trailer, including card access, traditional key, or passcode. Consider adding security cameras and temporary fencing to ensure your trailer is protected against theft or fraud.
- Flexibility: Office trailers are great candidates for flexible leasing agreements. Whether your construction project finishes early or runs longer than expected, you can lease your office trailer for as long as you need—no more, no less.
- Cost-effectiveness: Having a functional office trailer when and where you need it on a flexible lease will not only save you in facilities costs, but it will also allow your team to continue their work seamlessly, so you don’t lose out on labor costs and revenue.
Popular Uses for Office Trailer Rentals
Construction Trailers
Office trailers provide construction sites with secure, clean offices to store documents, review blueprints, hold meetings, and take a break. We can also equip your mobile office with sound masking to make it easier for your staff to work and hold meetings.
Portable Healthcare Offices And Medical Labs
The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that having fast access to clean, safe facilities is vital during periods of patient overflow. An office trailer rental allows hospitals to increase their square footage for a short amount of time and save money while protecting patients and healthcare workers. We’ve even provided a portable office trailer for a hospital in just seven days.
Secure Government Offices
Government agencies know to come to Mobile Modular for temporary office trailers in case of emergency. Our trailers are the perfect swing space or secure monitoring base during natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and wildfires.
We are a GSA-approved vendor, and we can provide office trailer rentals during construction projects for government offices, libraries, or town halls, so public servants to continue serving their community.
Portable Classrooms and School Offices
Office trailer rentals are the perfect solution during times of increased enrollment, ongoing construction, or displacement due to a natural disaster. With a high-quality office trailer rental, superintendents and school boards can ensure that education budgets are prioritized for their students, not expensive infrastructure costs.
Multipurpose Office and Storage Trailers
Our office and storage trailers, as well as our on-ground office containers, are designed to help those who need a multipurpose space. They can include a desk for management and a portion dedicated to storage. A divider wall can typically be installed if stored items and employee space need to be separated.
Office Trailers for Landfills and Waste Management Sites
Building codes, land issues, and other issues can hold back the construction of a permanent office building at a waste management site or landfill. However, a portable office trailer rental is much easier to permit, place, and move—which saves you time and money.
Office Trailers for Remote Work Sites
Arctic expeditions, drill camps, and remote forestry work often need temporary workspaces. With an office trailer rental, you can tow in your office at the beginning of your project and tow it out when the work is done. Our team at Mobile Modular has the necessary expertise to deliver office trailers anywhere in the world, no matter how remote or extreme the environment is.
Retail Office Spaces
Retailers who find themselves in older downtown buildings and need extra space for storage or administration should consider leasing an office trailer rental until a more permanent office can be installed.
Office Trailer Rental Dimensions
Rentable office trailer dimensions can vary widely. Below are some of the most standard temporary office dimensions and layouts that you’ll find.

What Office Rental Floor Plan Dimensions Should I Choose?
That depends on several factors, and we’ll walk you through each one.
Size of Installation Site
Some construction projects are limited in their office trailer size due to their property. Make sure to check with any local laws and regulations around modular buildings, even a temporary one. Our team is experienced in working with the regulatory and permitting process, and we’d be happy to help.
If length is an obstacle, you might want to rent a wider double wide or multiple single wide shorter units. If length and width are a problem, consider stacking to add height, or opt for a square office complex.
Employee Usage & Office Capacity
Depending on how you plan to utilize your office trailer rental, you’ll likely need between 60–150 square feet per worker. For more formal staffing layouts or cubicle designs, the square footage per workstation increases to between 400–500 square feet per station.
Usable Space
Be sure to ask about the actual amount of usable space for any office trailer rental you’re considering. This may change depending on the layout of the trailer, bathroom requirements, and wall specifications.
