The Benefits of Temporary Warehouse Structures

Large-scale industrial and commercial construction projects offer unique logistical challenges for on-site meeting space and storage. Often millions of dollars in equipment, materials and manpower must be on location at the right time to get the job done quickly and on budget. Temporary warehouse structures offer facility and project managers an on-site cost-effective option to ensure that your valuable materials are readily available. They also can provide temporary meeting, break or lunch spaces for employees.

Downsides Off-Site Storage

Off-site storage can cause costly delays due to transit and security issues. It can add hundreds of man-hours to a project as you must wait for parts to be ordered, loaded and transported to the site. Installation of these structures can occur at or near construction sites to provide on-demand access to tools, equipment and parts.

Temporary warehouse structures are quickly installed. Installation can occur on nearly any surface including concrete, asphalt or the ground. They also do not require a permanent foundation.

Workers are the most valuable resource available at any job site. When workers are productive it increases project completion time. Along with material storage, climate-control buildings can help increase employee efficiency by serving as break areas or safety meeting locations. When the project is complete, the structure’s removal and re-installation at the next site can begin. In addition temporary warehouse buildings are durable and can withstand harsh environments.

Types of Temporary Warehouse Structures

There are a variety of temporary warehouse tents and buildings available to meet almost any need. These structures feature blackout or translucent fabric roofs. Some do not have interior columns or supports giving you a large storage area. Because these buildings are completely open, they typically offer enough room for you to easily move items.

Clear Span Tents

Clear span tents do not have center poles or interior columns. There are also no exterior guy-lines. This eliminates virtually all obstructions and makes them perfect temporary warehouse structures. Clear span tents can be any length and range in width anywhere from approximately 10 feet to 150 feet. The tent flooring, lighting, temperature control, and other aspects of the building is customizable according to the needs of the project.

Because of their customizable nature, they are perfect for any type of warehousing.
