360Connect LLC: The Virtues Of The Ground Level Office Vs The Mobile Office

Austin, Texas -

Austin, TX based 360MobileOffice recently published a blog post that explores the differences between ground level offices and mobile offices. The blog post seeks to educate potential buyers about all the different types of office trailers available to them and what to look out for when making a choice.

Each type of business has different, unique needs and there are office trailers designed to meet those needs. Office trailers are an excellent way to secure temporary office space when a company is trying to expand, and picking the right one can make a world of difference for employees and productivity.

Mobile offices are above-ground structures designed to function as portable offices. They are made to fit securely on a sturdy I-beam metal frame with OSHA compliant stairs or a ramp leading up to the office. The majority of mobile offices have vinyl floors and T-grid ceilings. Ground level offices, in comparison, are shipping containers that have been converted into offices. They are durable and weather resistant (since they are made of steel). Additionally, ground level offices also act as an excellent theft deterrent.

One of the first factors to consider when choosing a temporary office is whether or not the business needs an office that is easily portable. 360MobileOffice’s blog post says, “Mobile office delivery and set-up requires a certain amount of labor to anchor, level and secure the structure to the ground. Once it’s set up, it’s not quite as easy to move. Some mobile offices may need to be broken down into various parts and reassembled once on the site. Ground level offices require very little site prep since all you have to do is place them on a level surface. ISO containers are built with standardized dimensions (20’ or 40’ most common), which makes them easy to transport by boat, truck, train, or forklift. They work a lot like Legos and can be stacked together, up to 7 units high.”

Another factor to consider is the outward appearance of the office. Mobile offices generally appear more professional and permanent than ground level offices. They are usually built with an exterior of wood siding and may have stairs, ramps and overhead awnings. The interior may be similar to a stick-build home. This aesthetic gives a greater sense of permanence and professionalism, which is why mobile offices are preferred for businesses that care about the outward appearance of their offices.

Ground level offices, on the other hand, are known for being sturdy but not very pleasant to look at. Ground level offices are essentially repurposed steel containers and thus much more difficult to customize. Customized ground level offices are uncommon, and the few that are available are very expensive — especially when compared to mobile offices.

Such offices, while not as comfortable or as attractive as mobile offices, do offer a lot more in terms of safety. If safety is a priority for a business, it is usually in their best interests to consider a ground level office. Thieves are unlikely to be able to break into steel containers, for instance, and a good locking mechanism can make a ground level office all but impregnable.
