CABIN AND CONTAINER DELIVER AND INSTALLATION
Working closely with the hire and sales division, the portable space specialized in worldwide delivery and installation of our comprehensive range of cabins and containers on site, for business and private individuals.
SPECIAL CRANES
Two of the lorries are fitted with special state-of-the-art cranes which have extended reach, the ability to operate 360degrees and larger lift. These are specifically designed for delivering to restricted access sites which saves a great deal of time when setting up large site compounds and modular buildings. The crane vehicle fleet is supported by two articulated lorries without cranes to move the containers from the ports to our headquarters for inspection and grading before storage, a quality control step not many companies offer.
DELIVERY INFORMATION
As a general rule, we will send a lorry capable of offloading whatever we are delivering to the site and at 90 degrees to the lorry (just clear of the stabiliser leg) as depicted. If your delivery location requires anything significantly different, please let us know for we have larger cranes for specialist purposes and can accommodate a lot of challenging deliveries with the right vehicle including offloading in front of the cab. Our lorries are capable of delivering your cabin or container to the site and at 90 degrees to the lorry, just clear of the stabilizer leg.
Our fleet includes larger cranes for challenging situations, including offloading in front of the cab (please request a quote if this service is required). Consider the size of the lorry in terms of the delivery location including height restrictions, overhead obstruction, space for turning corners and entering gates.
Portable space is not responsible for any damage to manhole or drain covers or surface (such as pavements, fields or grass) during delivery. In the event of our vehicle getting stuck, you will be liable for the cost of recovery and any damage that results, as well as any parking or permit cost incurred

DELIVERY AND COLLECTION QUESTIONNAIRE
Cabin and container delivery and installation including questionnaire
We will work with your people to deliver accommodation or storage in a safe manner, placing it where you want it and working around inevitable site restrictions and parameters. If you have any concerns about delivery, please discuss these with us at an early state to avoid incurring cost for abortive delivery attempts and wasted time for all those involved.
Fully trained portable space drivers are equipped with PDAs linked to our office systems which contain all pre- delivery information as advised by you, record all signatures and take photographs of the unit once delivered.
ON DELIVERY DAY.
On arrival, our drivers will report to your site manager to agree on a lifting plan before starting work and will level the container as required. Please note that if any corner needs levelling more than 200mm, you will need to let us know in advance. The driver will ensure that all doors and apertures open correctly before leaving the site.
Our delivery team is trained to carry out all necessary assessments for safe installation, using standard generic risk assessment for unloading and loading of cabins and containers by lorry mounted crane, Please refer to health and safety for more information about our commitment to safety or discuss with your contact in hire or sales who will refer to the transport team as required. 
SPECIALIST SUPPORT
For more complex installation which may involve multiple cabins, the transport team can draw on additional support from our specialist in-house resources.
Our Appointed Person will attend site and produce specific lift plans, together with method and risk assessment covering the whole installation as required.
For linked buildings and modular building installations and removals, the installation team will assist the transport team with erection of gantries, complex staircases and lifting between cabin links correctly, safely and efficiently. The installation team will then complete, snag and hand over the building quickly and efficiently so you can get on with your project work.
COLLECTING FROM US USING YOUR OWN TRANSPORT
If a stock item has been designated for click and collect, you will be given an option to collect rather than pay for delivery. Only items that are full paid for can be collected and there is usually a small collection fee. We will contact you to agree a date and time and you will be given safety information and details so you or your driver can safely collect your items.
