Temporary industrial buildings from Reeces give Perth and WA businesses covered space for warehousing, workshops, storage and site offices without the lead time or capital cost of a permanent build.
What is a temporary industrial building?
It is an engineered structure for industrial use that can be installed, relocated or removed as needs change. Reeces builds them with clear-span aluminium framing and heavy-duty PVC cladding, creating a column-free interior that maximises usable floor space. Unlike a permanent shed, it is not a fixed asset, so there is no long-term commitment and it can be moved or returned when the project ends.
What are temporary industrial buildings used for?
They cover a wide range of operations. Typical uses include:
- Temporary warehousing and overflow storage
- Workshops and fabrication space
- Covered laydown and staging areas
- Equipment, machinery and materials storage
- Site offices and administration areas
- Weather-protected work areas
For dedicated storage, our temporary warehouse hire structures provide large-scale covered space, while smaller configurations suit equipment lockup and parts storage on active sites.
Specifications and Customisation
Buildings come in 20m, 30m, 40m and 50m spans with modular bay lengths, and eave heights can suit tall machinery, racking or stacked storage. They install on concrete, bitumen, gravel or compacted earth, and can be fitted with hard walling, roller doors, personnel doors, ventilation, industrial flooring, lighting and climate control. For the engineering behind them, see our clearspan structures and fabric buildings page.
Temporary Industrial Buildings FAQ
What is a temporary industrial building?
It is an engineered, relocatable structure used for industrial purposes such as warehousing, workshops or storage. Reeces builds them with clear-span aluminium framing and heavy-duty PVC cladding for a column-free, weatherproof interior without the cost of a permanent build.
How much does a temporary industrial building cost to hire?
Hire starts from $2,000 and is priced on the building’s span, how long you need it, and fit-out such as hard walls, roller doors and flooring. Larger and long-term buildings are quoted individually.
How quickly can a temporary industrial building be installed?
A temporary industrial building is typically operational in two to five days, far faster than a permanent build’s months-long timeline.
Do you need council approval for a temporary industrial building?
It depends on the size, location and how long the building stays in place. A permit is often required, and Reeces assists with the documentation and engineering certification where needed.
How long can a temporary industrial building stay in place?
They suit both short and long-term use, from weeks to years. The aluminium frame and heavy-duty PVC cladding are engineered for durable, extended use in WA conditions.
What is the difference between a temporary industrial building and a permanent shed?
A temporary building is faster to install, lower in upfront cost and relocatable, while a permanent shed is a fixed asset that takes longer to build and approve. For changing or time-limited needs, the temporary option is usually more practical.
