Movie Set Trailers For Rent Or Sale In British Columbia

Trying to coordinate the details of your next project location and need to find flexible film set buildings for your cast and crew? 

Whether your shooting location is in the remote areas or the large cities of British Columbia, Britco offers a range of comfortable and turnkey modular solutions. Below we’ll highlight the top 6 movie set trailers Britco can offer for rent or sale.

Film production trailers are essential to any setup since you’ll need to house the administrative team that keeps the project going. You’ll need offices that can house all the different departments from the art and creative or lighting teams all the way to the director, production team, and tech scouts.

Ideally, your temporary office setup will have everything those teams need to work comfortably, from working areas to private conference spaces for collaboration. We offer a variety of options including:

• Mobile offices
• Skidded offices
• Container offices
• Office complexes
• Smart spaces (can be stacked w/ building block design)

It’s extremely important to make sure that your costumes and props remain safe and undamaged. After all, they’re also a key part of the investments you’ve made in filming.

Whether your set is in an urban area like Vancouver and you need to safeguard from theft, or you’re filming out in nature and need to keep items safe from the elements, we can help. Our storage containers come in an array of sizes and are easy to transport and install where you need them.

While your goal is to keep everyone safe and avoid accidents on set, you’ll want to be prepared just in case mishaps happen with nature or equipment. And sometimes having a first aid kit on hand isn’t enough.

As a part of your prep consider adding a first aid office to your list of movie set trailers. Britco’s first aid structures include:

• A first-aid bed with a mattress
• Counter space
• Storage cabinets for medical supplies
• A two-gallon hot water tank
• Thermostat-controlled air and baseboard heaters

On-site restrooms will be a welcome addition for your project teams, especially if you’re working in a remote area. They are more comfortable than portable toilets, which is a nice plus depending on how long you’ll be staying on location.

Our on-site restrooms include above-ground water and waste tanks to make installation a breeze. We also can offer turnkey washroom solutions including stairs, ramps, or landings, so that once it’s on the location your restroom is ready to use. (And that’s one less detail your team has to worry about coordinating.)

As a part of our office space packages, you’ll also have the option to pick our break room package. This includes a: 

• Table with seating
• Microwave
• Coffee maker
• Water cooler
• Fridge (size based on the space)
• Garbage can
• Handwashing station

All of this makes it easy for you to give your team the option to have a dedicated space where they can refuel and recharge. And during the gruelling hours of production — that’s a must.

Not seeing a structure yet that fits your vision? Perhaps it’s time to consider making it from scratch.

Our Smart Space line gives you the option of modular structures that work similarly to building blocks and can be set up in a variety of combinations. Or our team can do custom work to help build you a solution from the ground up that meets your film set needs.

When it comes to your movie set, it’s important that it fits the needs of everyone on location. But it’s also key that it meets any codes or requirements outside your team. 

At Britco, we can satisfy the following expectations:

It’s important to ensure your setup is compliant with all the most recent Canadian National Model Codes. And if your group is coming from outside of Canada to film in British Columbia, knowing exactly what those are can require a lot of extra research.

Fortunately, if you get your movie set structures from Britco, you don’t have to worry. All our modular solutions are built in adherence to all current safety standards and codes, so you can have peace of mind and save your team some time.

Time is money when you’re filming. And that’s why it simply won’t do to have your schedule held back because you can’t get the right setup in place quickly.

With Britco we offer plenty of options. Our team can provide rents, leases, sells, or custom options. While the timeline may vary slightly for renting a structure vs. designing your own — our overall capabilities are a lot faster than traditional construction.

If you opt for a new structure, our fabrication and site prep takes place at the same time, shortening the installation schedule. Plus, our buildings are built in a factory setting, so you can avoid weather delays outside your control.

Filmmaking often comes along with some high environmental costs, and more teams are starting to look for ways to help reduce that waste. Especially if you serve stakeholders that demand better sustainability practices — it’s important to consider this in your project decisions.

Using modular buildings on set is a great way to reduce some of that footprint and move the needle on your sustainability goals. Britco’s solutions:

• Rely on recycling and reuse (eg., renting a structure)
• Undergo building in a manner that reduces construction waste
• Require fewer raw materials (leading to less waste of raw materials)
• Cause less disruption to green space
• Offer increased energy efficiency
• Are designed to be reused or deconstructed (instead of demolished)
• Can be fabricated to meet LEED standards
