Mobile Pods

One of the main issues with built-in offices is the cost, it can be expensive to construct rooms from scratch, it is also time consuming and disruptive to workers. It can also be complicated and laborious to navigate through endless building regulations and get the right construction permits. What makes this even worse is that the investment made in building private offices will be completely lost as soon as you need to move offices. A great solution for this problem is to opt for an office pod, the obvious reason being that pods are fully enclosed and self-sufficient, free-standing units that instantly provide a room within a room, without the need for expensive and time consuming building works. In fact, the main benefit office pods offer in this respect is that they are completely mobile units.

What are mobile pods, and are all pods mobile?

The vast majority of office pods available in the market, be it a phone booth, a work pod, a meeting pod or meeting booth, are delivered flat packed and are assembled in situ. This characteristic is helpful in multiple ways, firstly because it makes pods easy to fit into most spaces, even through narrow doorways, staircases and/or lifts. Secondly, because most office pods need to be assembled this means they can also be disassembled and thus flat packed again. 

So in simple terms, yes, pretty much all pods are mobile, meaning they are not affixed to the construction of a given building, on the contrary, they are freestanding and ready to move aorund. Thanks to this, buying a pod is a one-off investment that can be taken with you whenever your current space situation changes. 

How easy is it to move mobile pods around? 

There are two ways in which an office pod can be mobile. For example, if you are changing offices from one location to another, the safest and most practical way to relocate your pod would be to disassemble it, securely pack all its individual components, transport it into your new location, and once in situ reassemble it.
