That’s a great question and one that many people ask. Generally speaking, a mobile office is a single, self-contained unit that can be moved from site to site easily. Modular describes a building system that allows the construction process to take place in a controlled environment. A customer’s design is engineered and built in sections. These sections, or modules, are then transported to the site and assembled to achieve the customer’s desired floor plan.
We have a wide range of customers at Satellite Shelters. That’s the great thing about our product – it’s designed to be flexible and meet a wide variety of needs. Some of the major industries we serve include the following:

All of our different market segments are looking for the same thing: safe, comfortable space. Whether a business wants mobile or modular depends on the following factors:
Since modular offices are usually more than one module and require more time to assemble, they are selected for long term/semi-permanent use. Mobile offices, on the other hand, can easily be moved and set up where temporary space is needed.
One of Satellite’s biggest mobile office customers is the construction industry. Contractors and sub-contractors often come to us requesting mobile offices for job-site office space and/or storage space for their machinery and equipment.
Modular buildings, also known as prefabricated buildings, offer many of the same benefits as mobile offices, only on a bigger scale. Any industry that needs a large amount of temporary space, usually more than one floor or several side-by-side offices would benefit from a modular building. Typically, where conventional construction is used, modular buildings can take their place. Read more: Modular Building Buyer’s Guide.
Modular buildings can be used for any of the following:
In short, most of the industries Satellite Shelters serves use BOTH: mobile offices and modular buildings. It just depends on how much space they need and how permanent they want that space to be.
Think about education. When enrollment levels change, the need for space changes, too. Modular classrooms give educators the flexibility to add space when they need it and remove it when they don’t. This additional space can be completed quickly, causing less disruption.
We offer a wide range of sizes, dimensions, and building types designed for any of the following:
Satellite Shelters also rents out a lot of modular buildings and mobile offices for disaster relief. We make sure that each mobile and modular building is individually coded to meet the different requirements of each state (since requirements can vary from state to state).
In the petrochemical and refining industries, we offer Blast Resistant Modules that are designed to create a safe work environment for employees working in the blast zone. We have an award-winning safety program and are considered an approved vendor by many companies and refineries across the United States. Our Blast Resistant Modules are designed to provide conditions that can potentially save lives.
Yes, definitely. One that I will never forget was when the tornado in Joplin, Missouri happened. My cell phone went off immediately. The contractor at Mercy Hospital in Joplin had Satellite Shelters listed as part of their disaster plan. They made one phone call and we had mobile offices arriving hours after the tornado hit. By providing temporary space for the hospital office staff, they were able to continue caring for patients in the midst of a disaster.
We are privately held and nationally located – a family-owned business with big business resources. We believe that a small group of dedicated people can change the industry, and we go about doing that every day. At Satellite Shelters, service is more than a slogan, we live and breathe it.
