This time doesn't include calls to negotiate prices, understand the rental or purchase agreement and discuss the particulars of site conditions, permits and installation. Multiply this by three or four supplier conversations and the time really adds up unless you use an online modular building price comparison tool to streamline the process.

Online price comparison tools have become very popular ever since the introduction of web sites like Priceline.com and Hotels.com. Completing a simple and secure online form and submitting it just like sending an email takes a few minutes and the results typically save hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars for any given product or service - modular buildings and portable classrooms are no exception. In fact, the process of using an online pricing tool to rent or buy a modular building can have additional benefits beyond just finding the best price.
For example, buyers will sometimes find a great supplier that they normally would have overlooked in search results because the large firms spent more money for the top advertising positions. By using the online pricing tool the buyer's inquiry makes its way to several suppliers regardless of their search engine advertising positions. This simple process causes a subtle bidding war for the buyer's business - and everyone wins. You receive competitive price and the supplier has a new customer.
