Shipping Container Offices
Custom-built container offices for job sites, yards, and standalone workspaces — insulated, wired, and finished to your specifications, delivered nationwide.
Turn a Container Into a Working Office
A container office gives you a secure, weatherproof workspace that can be delivered to a job site in days instead of the months a stick-built structure requires. TAT Logistics builds container offices from new or used steel shells, adding insulation, electrical, HVAC, windows, doors, and interior finishes so the unit arrives ready to plug in and use.
Construction companies, industrial yards, oilfield sites, and growing businesses all use container offices as fast, durable alternatives to trailers — steel construction means better security, better insulation, and a structure that holds its value.
What Goes Into a Container Office
- Spray foam or batt insulation for temperature control in any climate
- Electrical wiring, outlets, and lighting, with panel sized to your equipment
- Mini-split or window-unit HVAC for heating and cooling
- Windows, man-doors, and optional roll-up doors
- Interior finishes: drywall, paneling, flooring, and trim
- Exterior upgrades: paint, signage, steps, and ramps
Choosing a Container Size for Your Office
A single 20ft container makes a solid one- or two-person office. A 40ft container or 40ft High Cube comfortably fits a small team, a reception area, and a private office. Need more room? Multiple containers can be combined side-by-side with connecting doorways cut between them for a larger, multi-room building.

What Affects the Price of a custom container office
Pricing on a custom container office depends on a handful of factors: new versus used condition, current steel and freight market rates, how far the unit needs to travel from the nearest stocked location, and any add-ons like locking boxes or delivery-day placement requirements. Because container pricing shifts with market conditions, we don't publish fixed prices online — instead, every quote is put together based on current availability and your specific delivery location, so you get an accurate, all-in number rather than a rough estimate that changes at checkout.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a container office?
A container office is a shipping container converted into a finished workspace — insulated, wired for electrical, fitted with windows, a man-door, HVAC, and interior finishes like drywall, flooring, and lighting.
Which container sizes work best as offices?
20ft and 40ft containers are most common for single offices; 40ft High Cube units add extra headroom. Multiple containers can also be combined side-by-side for larger floor plans.
Can I get electrical and HVAC installed?
Yes. TAT Logistics container offices can include electrical wiring and panels, mini-split or window HVAC units, insulation, and interior finish work, all completed before delivery.
How long does a custom office build take?
Turnaround depends on the scope of finish work, but most single-container office builds are completed within 3-6 weeks from order confirmation.
Can a container office be moved later?
Yes — that's one of the biggest advantages over stick-built structures. A finished container office can be relocated by truck if a job site or business location changes.
Do I need permits for a container office?
Requirements vary by city and county. Job-site temporary offices often need minimal permitting, while permanent installations may require foundation and utility permits — check with your local building department before installation.
