Cabins & Containers

TRUSTED TO GET ON WITH THE JOB

We specialise in moving portable cabins, modular buildings and shipping containers. We’ve been doing it for years and it is one of our most requested services. We’re also an active Associate Member of the MPBA (Modular & Portable Building Association).

A FLEET FIT FOR PURPOSE

As one of the UK’s leading cabin and container transport companies, we have an advantage over our competition. Our extensive and varied fleet enables us to allocate the exact equipment for your needs. We assign our smaller vehicles to cabins sized 8’ long x 8’ wide; and our largest to cabins measuring 60’ long x 14’ wide, utilising our rear steering extendable trailers. We also have a large number of vehicles around the UK capable of lifting 360° thanks to the addition of front bumper stabilisers and have vehicles with a reach of up to 26 metres to facilitate the placing of cabins over obstacles and to double/triple-stack or position them end-on.

PROJECT MANAGERS & SKILLED OPERATORS

For large modular building projects, you will be assigned one of our Project Managers who will look after every aspect of your job. Whether it is 20 modular bays or 300 your Project Manager will schedule and program the transport in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible using dedicated vehicles and reducing the total number of days required on-site saving you money. Whilst our highly trained drivers will ensure the safe collection and delivery of your cabins or containers, making sure you are fully satisfied before leaving the site.

OUTDOORS OR IN?

We don’t only place cabins and containers outside; some are required to be housed inside buildings as well. Where headroom or space is limited, restricting the use of a crane, our trained installers will ‘skate’ the object into position and jack down. It makes no odds to us if the cabin or container is 8’ long or 60’, we have the capability to place them all.

Excellent crane assessment and careful handling and positioning of our expensive Television and Radio containers. The operator was very professional and worked diligently to make sure all was 100% correct. Also had the added bonus of being a very polite and approachable person to work with. As far as the television and radio Engineers present at the off-loading are concerned, the operations on site could not have gone any better than they did. Thank you for another job well done.

Arqiva Ltd

I just wanted to say a BIG BIG Thank You to you and your guys. The lift was not as straightforward as we had first envisaged and it was purely down to your driver’s experience and expertise that we managed to get the units loaded. They were the epitome of Team-Work and a great example of Synergy working at its best. The way your guys manoeuvred their trucks was nothing short of magnificent. Working with nothing more than a few inches to spare!

I would just like to give feedback following delivery today. Your driver undertook the delivery in a highly competent way, his regard to limiting traffic disruption and his H&S awareness was excellent. The delivery went without a hitch. Thank you David Watson Transport.

City of York Council

I just want to say how much we appreciated your driver today for his professionalism and his outlook on the high safety standards that you as a company maintain. It was a breath of fresh air to have a HIAB driver arrive on-site with safety and can-do attitude. Many thanks for providing a competent and professional service. It’s a pleasure to see a job being done with proper regard to safety. He was absolutely spot on – our site AP is full of praise.

M & W Group

Please pass on my thanks and highest regards to your drivers for the excellent work they did in Penzance. The planning was exemplary and execution flawless. In addition to the professionalism shown by both towards their work, and everyone’s safety; they were also extremely polite, friendly and continually adapted to the fluid situation we were in. All appropriate safety equipment was checked and used without question or any need for a gentle reminder. Great to see!
