Welfare cabins for construction sites

As the autumn season arrives and nights draw in, construction sites across the UK face new challenges with shorter days, cooler temperatures, and unpredictable weather. Simply Hire’s 12ft mobile welfare units are specially designed to address these conditions, ensuring that construction sites remain operational and that teams stay safe, warm, and comfortable. Our welfare cabins, including eco-friendly options, provide the perfect solution for maintaining productivity and morale as the days grow darker.

1. Essential heating and lighting for darker evenings

When it comes to working through the darker months, having access to proper heating and lighting is essential. Our welfare units are fitted with high-quality LED lighting to ensure that the workspace remains well-lit, regardless of how early the sun sets.

The heating systems in our welfare units are built to take off the chill of the autumn and winter months, creating a warm haven for your team to take breaks, eat, and rest. Simply Hire’s units provide a comfortable environment that supports well-being and productivity.

2. Comprehensive facilities in a compact space

Our 12ft mobile welfare units offer a complete package in a conveniently compact space. Despite their size, they come fully equipped with everything needed to keep your workforce comfortable and well-supported on site. Inside, the units which seat up to six people, each house a microwave and kettle and provide access to drinking water and hot water for handwashing, as well as clean, hygienic toilet facilities. There’s also a dedicated drying room for wet clothing and gear—essential for those rainy autumn days.

We understand that construction sites are often in remote or temporary locations, so our towable welfare units are designed to be easily transported and set up wherever you need them. With a durable build and all necessary amenities in place, our units are the perfect base for construction teams working in challenging conditions.

3. Eco welfare cabins: reducing environmental impact

Simply Hire’s eco welfare units are powered by an advanced 12-volt system paired with an auto-controlled diesel generator, which shuts off after two hours of use. This intelligent setup reduces emissions, fuel consumption, maintenance requirements, generator hours, and noise pollution. Remarkably, just two hours of generator operation can provide up to eight hours of heating and lighting, making our units highly efficient and environmentally conscious.

Equipped with PIR-activated lights, security lighting, and ample canteen space for up to six people, these units provide everything needed for a comfortable on-site experience. Additionally, they feature a toilet, a drying room, solar panels, Wi-Fi, and stainless steel work surfaces, which are not only durable but also easy to clean. With Simply Hire’s welfare units, construction sites can maintain a high standard of convenience, safety, and sustainability, even as the demands of the job evolve.

4. Ensuring safety and compliance on-site

Proper welfare facilities are more than just a convenience—they’re a legal requirement for construction sites. Simply Hire’s welfare units are fully compliant with UK health and safety regulations, providing a secure and hygienic space for workers to rest, eat, and refresh themselves. With our units on-site, you can be confident that you’re meeting regulatory standards and providing your team with high quality facilities.

Our welfare units are maintained to the highest standards, with regular checks and servicing included to ensure everything remains in top condition. From clean toilets to well-maintained heating and lighting, we take care of all the details so you can focus on running your project.

5. Flexibility to meet your project’s needs

At Simply Hire, we know that no two construction sites are the same, which is why we offer flexible welfare solutions to suit your specific requirements. Whether you’re working on a short-term project or need long-term welfare support, we can provide units on a hire basis that fits your timeline and budget.
