What Comes With a Conex Office Container, and How Do You Fit It to Your Workspace?
Every crew and project team needs something a little different from an on-site office, so it’s fair to ask how much you can shape one of these. The honest answer is different from what a lot of container companies advertise, and simpler. First, see our conex office container page for details on the product, and Conex Container Rentals for the wider picture of renting across Indiana. Here we stay focused on what actually comes with the office and how you match it to the way your people work.
Every office shows up finished: insulation, paneling, a 100-amp panel, outlets, LED lighting, and a heat and AC unit, all standard.
The office is a finished product, not a build-your-own
Here’s the part most companies bury: our offices are a fixed-spec product, built new and delivered ready to work. We don’t run a customization shop that partitions rooms, relocates doors, or fabricates one-off layouts on rentals. What you get instead is a complete, professional office the day it lands, and the reason is the same one behind everything we rent: every office is a new one-trip container manufactured into an office, averaging under a year old, so nothing needs modifying to be job-ready. A 20-foot office comes with a steel man door, two slider windows with security bars, an exterior security light, an HVAC security cage, R13 insulation in the walls and ceiling, finished wall paneling, a 100-amp service panel, seven outlets, an 11,500 BTU heat and AC combo unit, and LED strip lighting. The 40-foot office scales all of that up: two doors, four windows, a bigger 18,000 BTU climate unit, nine outlets, and more lighting. That’s a real office, not a shell you have to finish.
The choices that actually shape your workspace
So the real customization is choosing the right box, and three cover almost every jobsite need:
- 20-foot office: a compact, fully finished workspace for a super, a plan table, and a couple of people, ideal for tighter sites.
- 40-foot office: the same finish with roughly double the room, plus the larger climate unit and more outlets for a team running monitors, printers, and devices all day.
- 40-foot office/storage combo: about 20 feet of insulated, climate-controlled office paired with 20 feet of secure storage behind its own doors, so paperwork and materials live under one roof.
Inside the office, how you furnish and arrange it is up to you. Crews bring their own desks, chairs, plan tables, shelving, and monitors, and everything of yours comes back out at the end of the rental. On power, the box is built with a breaker box, and you arrange the connection through land power or a generator, since we supply the box itself, not electrical service. For the full picture on powering an office, see office container power requirements. What we don’t do on rentals is permanent modification, because every box is one-trip and returns to inventory job-ready for the next customer.
When you genuinely need custom work
Some projects really do need a modified box: a cut-in extra door, a specific interior build-out, or steel work tailored to a piece of equipment. That path runs through a purchase, not a rental. Buy the box and it’s yours to modify however the job demands, and we sell both one-trip and used units to companies and individuals alike. The trade-off is simple. A rental gets you a finished, professional office fast with no build time, while a purchase gives you a blank canvas to modify on your own terms and your own timeline. Matching that decision to your project is the real “customization” conversation, and it’s one we’re happy to have honestly instead of selling you an options list that inflates the invoice.
How ordering works, and how fast it moves
Because the office is a finished product, there’s no long fabrication wait, so the process runs the same as any rental:
- We send a same-day quote covering the box and any services you want.
- You review and accept it electronically.
- We schedule delivery as soon as possible, which is usually fast.
On delivery day the office sets at ground level with no steps or decking to build, ready the moment the truck pulls away once you’ve arranged power. For timing, see how quickly a 40 ft conex can be delivered. Every office is built for commercial workspaces, and rentals are for companies only.
The best first move is a quick conversation about your site and how your team works, so we can point you to the right box. If you want no-fees pricing and dependable service from people who know these units inside and out, see office pricing and order online or talk your plans through with us.
