Portable Lunch Room & Crib Room Containers for remote work

A shipping container lunch room gives your crew a proper space to take their breaks away from the noise, dust, and weather on site. Every unit is fully insulated with climate control and a kitchenette with hot and cold running water, so it’s ready to connect the day it lands. We build lunch room and crib room containers in both 20ft and 40ft sizes to suit your crew numbers and site layout. Whether it’s a long-term setup at your yard or a crib room that follows your team from project to project, the container relocates when the job does.

FAQs

Looking to learn more about Lunch Room Shipping Container? We’ve answered some of the common questions our sales team gets asked.

  • Yes, we can modify a Shipping Container to suit your specific needs. At Container Traders, we offer a wide range of customisation options, including the installation of doors, windows, insulation, shelving, electrical systems and ventilation. We can also create bespoke modifications for purposes like offices, storage, accommodation units, or even pop-up shops. Our experienced team ensures that all modifications are done to the highest standards, ensuring durability, safety and functionality.

  • Yes, New Shipping Containers are perfect for modification since they are typically in excellent structural condition. Their square and plumb design makes it easier to remove side walls and roof panels and weld in new frames. With minimal dents and scuff marks, they provide a superior finish for the modified product. Container Traders always recommends using New Shipping Containers for modifications.

  • All Shipping Containers can be modified, but we recommend investing in a New Build Shipping Container. New Shipping Containers have straight, unbent walls, which provide a better foundation and a more polished result once fitted out.

  • Containers are delivered using self-offloading trucks, with methods like Tilt Trays, Side Loaders, Flatbeds, and Hiab Cranes based on site access. We work with you to choose the best option for your location, ensuring a smooth delivery. Please inform us of any access restrictions like narrow driveways or uneven ground.

    “We needed a 40ft container quickly for my business, Fork Force Australia. Right from my initial contact the entire transaction was seamless and smooth. Nick was in contact almost straight away and made everything run great. They even delivered our container earlier than expected. I would highly recommend these guys.”

    Amy was fantastic. She was able to assist with all my questions, and I was very happy with the quoted price. Very fast delivery, they even delivered it from Sydney to Canberra on the same day I paid for it! If you’re lucky enough to get Amy, you won’t be disappointed. Container Traders was by far the best place I tried, unlike the other companies.
