Who buys
Mine owners and operators, mining contractors, and service companies.
The housing problem
- Remote sites, rotating 7-on/7-off or 14/14 shifts.
- Dust and heavy traffic.
- Long project lives with phased expansions.
Large mining projects elsewhere in the U.S. have built modular hubs with nearly 2,000 rooms. Most Texas operations are smaller and need 20 to 200 beds. Factory-built units fit that range without a custom camp build.
Typical unit mix
- Rotating crew of 80: 16 five-room units plus laundry
- Managers: 4-suite units
Recommended units: 16×76 5-Bed, 5-Bath Crew Unit (Shared Kitchen)7-Room High-Density Sleeper All models
