A temporary storage building met all our requirements at a fraction of the cost of a permanent building. The speed and ease with which the building was transported and erected also meant it was available almost immediately. Going forward, the modular construction makes the building equally simple to dismantle and relocate to one of our other sites across the UK or Europe in the future if necessary, giving us maximum flexibility for minimum investment."

Can't see your question answered?
What is a temporary building
Simply put, a temporary building is a prefabricated modular structure that is designed to be installed quickly and easily. They can often be used as an alternative to permanent structures without the need for groundworks or permanent foundations.
Do I need planning permission for temporary buildings?
Not every temporary building will require planning permission. Size, location and duration of use will all play a factor in whether your new temporary building will require planning permission. Need help with your planning application? We've established a close partnership with the experts at Mosaic Town Planning to make the process as simple as possible for our clients.
How quickly can a temporary building be installed?
Unlike permanent buildings, which can take months to plan and construct, temporary solutions provide rapid installation to expand your storage space quickly. A typical Aganto temporary building can be installed in around 7 days, allowing you to begin using your structure within just weeks. Contact our temporary building experts and get your project started today.
How long do temporary buildings last?
Despite being ‘temporary’, our temporary buildings can remain in place for as long as you need them. Some of our clients have had Aganto buildings on their site for over 10 years! Alternatively, our short-term rental contracts start from as little as 3 months. Choose the best option for you and get the space you need when you need it.
What are the purchasing options for temporary buildings?
We provide flexible purchasing options for our high-quality temporary buildings, ensuring that your new structure meets your specific needs and budget.
For those looking for a long-term solution, outright purchase offers full ownership of the building and is more cost-effective than traditional construction. If you need the building for an extended period but prefer not to buy, our long-term hire option allows you to spread the cost over time while retaining flexibility. For short-term projects or seasonal needs, we offer short-term hire, providing the additional space you require without a long-term commitment. Explore temporary building hire options.
Additionally, we offer the option to purchase used temporary buildings. Choosing a used building frame is a budget-friendly alternative to a new structure, delivering the same reliability at a lower cost.
