BENEFITS OF USING PORTABLE OFFICES
The numerous benefits of working from your KEA Cabins re-locatable office, including:
Our portable offices are delivered to your place NZ wide
Allowing you to obtain a better work / life balance
Saving you hours of unproductive time every week that are spent sitting in traffic
Reduce your commute time, save a fortune in annual petrol. The fuel savings alone could pay for the cabin rental
The weekly rental cost is cheaper than a tank of gas
If you have your own business or are self employed, the GST & rent are fully tax deductible
If you are an employee, your employer would benefit from the fact that those who work from portable offices enjoy reduced sickness and have improved productivity & output
Be home in time to enjoy dinner with the family
Have the flexibility, if necessary, to catch up on work after the kids are in bed
You can get your house back to being a home. I often hear of situations where the dining table has been commandeered as the workspace. This not only makes the house look untidy, but also disrupts the normal family social interaction of talking to each other at dinner time & is often replaced by dinner in front of TV
Furthermore, if you have confidential or sensitive information, you don't want guests around when they could see such files & documents on your dining table
This applies equally to using a guest or spare room as an office. As you would no doubt be reluctant to have people staying in your so called office
Being a mobile cabin we can move your office when required, for example when you move house.
Benefits of leasing a temporary office from KEA Cabins: No long term commercial lease
With KEA office at your place, you will have your own work space and once you walk out & close the door, you can shut your mind off from work and go back into your home. Whereas often with offices located within the house, the computer is frequently left on, so it is all too easy to pop back into the room when you should be switching off and giving yourself a break (e.g. before breakfast, after dinner, or on the weekend).
KEA CABINS PORTABLE OFFICE FEATURES
Our portable offices are light, spacious and secure. These are primary features of every cabin. Aesthetically appealing with neutral colours, our offices will blend in with any environment. Furthermore, with modern communications, this fully powered portable office comes with multiple power points making it easy to run your business. Moreover, as our cabins are fully insulated you will be cosy and warm while you work. KEA Cabins are quality built offices so you know they are safe and secure.
