Site welfare hire from 777 Hire keeps a crew looked after and CDM 2015-compliant, spanning towable welfare units, canteens, toilet blocks, drying rooms, site offices, storage and gatehouses, plus solar and hybrid eco cabins. Towable units carry their own fresh and waste water and run on solar with a generator backup, while static and jackleg cabins suit bigger teams and longer programmes. We supply these to businesses across the UK, delivered and sited ready to use. Browse the range below, or get in touch for a tailored quote and advice.
Site Welfare & Safety Hire
Frequently Asked Questions
What does site welfare hire cover?
It’s the on-site facilities that keep workers looked after, such as welfare units, toilet blocks, canteen and mess rooms, drying rooms, changing areas and site offices. You can hire a single unit or a full welfare setup. Tell us your crew size and site and we’ll put together the right package.
What welfare facilities does a construction site legally need?
Under CDM 2015 every site must provide toilets, hot and cold washing facilities, drinking water, a heated rest area where food can be prepared and eaten, and somewhere to change and dry clothing. The scale depends on headcount. Share your numbers and we’ll make sure you’re covered.
When do the CDM welfare requirements kick in?
Welfare provision applies from day one of any construction work, however small. Notifiable projects, those running over 30 working days with 20+ workers or more than 500 person-days, face tighter scrutiny, so it’s worth specifying welfare properly from the outset. We can help you scope it.
How do I choose welfare by crew size?
As a rough guide, a 6 to 7 person mobile welfare unit suits a small gang, while larger crews need bigger static cabins or separate canteen, toilet and drying units run together. The right mix depends on shift patterns and how long you’re on site. Our hire team will help you spec it.
Can I hire welfare for a site with no water or power?
Yes. Towable and self-contained welfare units carry their own fresh and waste water tanks and run on solar with a backup generator, so they work on greenfield and early-stage sites with no connections. Let us know your site conditions and we’ll match the right unit.
What’s the difference between mobile, towable and static welfare?
Mobile and towable units tow in behind a vehicle and deploy in minutes, ideal for short jobs and sites that move on. Static cabins are craned or delivered onto site and suit longer programmes and bigger crews. Tell us the job length and we’ll recommend the format.
Do you supply eco or solar-powered welfare?
We do. Solar and hybrid welfare units run mainly off battery and solar with an HVO-fuelled backup generator, cutting fuel use, noise and emissions on site. They’re popular where running costs and carbon reporting matter, so ask us about the eco range when you enquire.
Can I hire individual units rather than a combined welfare unit?
Absolutely. As well as all-in-one welfare units we hire standalone toilet blocks, canteens, drying rooms and offices, so you can build the setup around your site. Just list what you need and we’ll quote it together, subject to availability.
How quickly can you deliver site welfare?
It depends on your location and current availability. We coordinate delivery and collection through our supplier network, and can often help with urgent or time-critical jobs, subject to availability. Send us your site postcode and we’ll confirm a realistic delivery time.
