/24-7PressRelease/ - KANSAS CITY, MO, August 29, 2008 - The Internet is pervasive in society today, but did you know the Internet was first invented in August 1969? The Internet was birthed through an experiment by the U.S. Department of Defense. Today, people access the Internet at home, at work, in vehicles, on cell phones - and in portable storage units.
"Portable storage containers can be modified as portable buildings complete with air conditioning, electrical systems and lighting, security windows with rebar, paneled walls and ceilings and, yes, wiring for telephone and Internet connections," said John Finnessy, CMP, Executive Director of the National Portable Storage Association, or NPSA, a nonprofit membership association dedicated to the advancement of the portable storage industry. "You can even get different portable building layouts by combining more than one container."
These portable buildings are low-cost and strong. They are built inside a 16-guage vertically corrugated galvanized steel container. Portable storage modifiers rely on heavy-duty, marine-grade wood flooring and install a die-stamped steel roof. These portable buildings make good worksite offices, auxiliary space for game rooms and music studios that need Internet connections, as well as overflow space for prisons and emergency clinics that need to stay connected.
"Relying on portable buildings that leverage containerized storage - complete with Internet connections - is a smart move for many businesses who need to set up shop in remote locations," said NPSA Operations Manager Joel Rathbone. "Because these buildings are developed using steel and other strong materials, you can be sure they'll hold up to weather and wear and tear that will preserve their lifespan until the next world-changing technology comes along."
