Default buying + transporting a portacabin

Hi

Does anyone know of anywhere that sells reasonably priced second hand portcabins?

I've seen some on ebay but it says you have to transport them yourself. Any ideas on companies that can transport one if i buy frome bay?

Thanks

i work for a sister company of portacabin, have u tried them direct for second hand/refurbed cabins?

When we need to transport any between sites, we generally tend to just use a local 'one man and his hiab' haulage company.

Default cabin

find a company that hires them out local to you and ask them they will usually sell you one and shift it with a hiab wagon
