Last week DropBox Inc. reported in the Shipping Container Modification Blog on the completion of a new 20' Decontamination Station. This week DropBox Inc. began construction on yet another custom ISO shipping container modification for the Decontamination Station. This modular decon. shower unit is being constructed from two 40' high cube containers that have been cut down to 28' in length to match customer specified dimensions.

This custom Decontamination Station will be fully insulated, wired for electric, and will be plumbed into existing water and sewer lines on site. It will have a hepa HVAC system supporting positive and negative air flows, a ten and twenty micron water filtration system to remove contaminates. Like all Decontamination Stations by DropBox Inc. this unit will have a dirty room, showers, and a clean room with lockers for employee uniforms and clean PPE.

This custom shipping container modification also has a helmet and respirator wash station with a nozzle for particulate removal located at eye level. Unlike previous decon showers by DropBox Inc. this unit will also have 2 pass thru cabinets to transfer cleaned PPE from the cleaning station to the clean room.

DropBox Inc. just recently completed construction on a new 20' design for it's modular decon shower, the Decontamination Station. This 20' unit, like all portable decon showers offered by DropBox Inc., comes equipped with a clean room, showers, and a dirty room to meet OSHA regulations for decontamination facilities. These modular decon showers come plug and play ready to operate with a pre and post water filtration system and a hepa air filter to remove contaminates. 

Units like these modular decontamination showers are depended upon heavily in the abatement industry where asbestos, lead, arsenic, and hexachrom are removed in commercial and industrial settings. For those employees an onsite area to remove contaminated PPE and then shower before changing into clean street clothes before leaving work is a requirement. DropBox Inc. has built Decontamination Stations for companies like AEP, Shaw Construction, Enerfab, and a number of others. This portable 20' decon shower is sure to be a welcome member of the DropBox Inc. product line.

The Decontamination Station or Modular Decontamination Shower offered by DropBox, Inc. is designed for the most rugged field environments. Built to withstand any condition it is placed in, this portable decontamination shower will prove to be a valuable piece of decon equipment for your abatement group. With its heavy duty construction, and quick connects for easy set-up and its portability, the Decontamination Shower is the most dependable decon shower to remove contaminants.

The Decontamination Station is extremely portable and provides abatement teams in refinery and power plant outage projects an easy to use and simple set-up system. Other abatement activities such as bridge work and Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) projects require a high quality, durable decontamination product to remove contaminates and DropBox, Inc. has the solution. Products like the Decontamination Station are essential to any abatement group working in any industrial and commercial setting.

Like many standard decontamination showers in the industry the DropBox units are built to remove contaminates but what sets the Decontamination Station apart is its quality construction from steel shipping containers making it highly durable and portable from job to job.  Rental units come in standard sizes, but custom "for sale" units can be configured to accommodate any and all abatement needs.

This week in Columbus, Ohio hundreds of AEP employees, vendors, and guest utility representatives gathered for the AEP BRO Forum to share cutting edge industry technology and knowledge. A Vendor Expo of over 150 vendor booths and breakout conference sessions provided an informational venue for an abundance of boiler subject matter and experts.  According to AEP representatives at the show, this year's event included even more networking and information sharing opportunities than in the past.

For the first time in company history DropBox Inc was at the AEP BRO Forum in Columbus to represent it's wide array of custom container modifications including the DropOffice, Sanitation Station, Shower Shack, and Decontamination Station. Having worked on numerous AEP locations around the country including the John Amos Power Plant, the Conesville Power Plant and the Big Sandy Power Plant in Louisa, KY DropBox Inc. felt right at home at the show.

A number of AEP field and office representatives stopped by the booth after recognizing DropBox products that they'd seen on site at power plants across the country. By providing a portable, flushable, running water restroom and modular shower facility out of shipping containers DropBox Inc. has made it's presence known throughout the AEP system. "This is the first year we've attended the AEP BRO Forum, but I think it has been a great opportunity for us to meet with friends and customers. I'm sure we'll be back again next year.", stated President/Owner of DropBox Inc. Rob Slagel.

The focus of Dropbox Inc business is to design buildings made from shipping containers or connex containers.  Shipping containers have evolved over the years to a standard design and set of dimensions that allow them to be loaded with cargo, and carried by cargo ships, trucks, or trains. Roughly 7.5 million shipping container are imported into the US from places like China yet only about 2 million are exported back out of the country.    

The ultimate destination for many used shipping containers or milvans may be the scrap yard, where they are shredded, and sent to be melted down to raw steel.  Dropbox Inc however has found a number of uses for both new and used shipping containers. Reuse of the containers allows for a more green application than melting them down.

Recently the popularity of using containers for construction has risen greatly.  For Dropbox these containers can provide a green type of construction with major advantages in cost savings and strength.  The containers are extremely strong in all dimensions, and allow Dropbox to build extremely strong buildings without expensive steel fabrication and assembly.

 

"Shipping Containers are our business, and we aim to be the best", stated Matthew Vonderheide, Business Manager for Dropbox Inc.  "We not only do the structural design, engineering and manufacturing, but we can provide you with the complete package, Architectural, Structural, Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing".

A few short weeks ago Dropbox Inc. began the process of building a custom container modification to meet the specifications of a customer on the west coast. This men and womens restroom/shower combination with a separate ADA compliant restroom was built based on the customers specific requests and was the first time Dropbox has put circular "submarine like" window hatches in one of its units. In addition to the windows, and the custom floor plan, this custom shipping container modifcation will also be painted to match existing structures currently located on site.

 

All the toilets, urinals, sinks and shower fixtures have been installed on the custom container modification along with all plumbing and electrical. The walls have been insulated, the floors have been sprayed with a non-skid rubberized flooring that is easy to clean and maintain. The last thing to go in will be the stall doors for the toilets and a fresh coat of customer specified paint to the exterior of the unit. 

Prior to shipping this unit will also have 20 Dropbox manufactured, window flanges placed inside. These window flanges were designed and manufactured specifically for this build and the circular window/hatches the customer requested. When pictures of the unit were sent to the customer in the early stages of the build they noticed the "square to circle" flanges and ordered 20 for themselves to use in some of their own custom shipping container modifications.

For Dropbox Inc. the opportunity to offer customers a custom solution for their needs is always an exciting prospect. This week cutting began on a custom running water restroom with a men's room, women's room and an ADA compliant restroom. This custom container modification will have 2 men's toilet stalls, 2 urinals, a shower, and a sink in the men's room, 1 women's toilet stall, 1 shower, and a sink in the women's room, and a handicap accessible restroom with 1 toilet and a sink.

In addition to the custom floor plan this portable running water restroom will be built to incorporate 4 "submarine-like" circular hatch windows as specified by the customer. This Sanitation Station is currently in the first stages of manufacturing and has already had the doorways, HVAC, fan, and windows cut out.

Dropbox Inc is a custom container modification company that specializes in building numerous products out of Standard and High-Cube ISO Shipping containers. Dropbox's most popular product is the Running Water Restroom (RWR), Sanitation Station. The Sanitation Stations are essentially self-contained restroom trailersthat can be transported to construction projects to provide a higher level of hygiene for workers on site. By providing these units to customers across the US Dropbox Inc has been able to increase the overall sanitation at construction sites, military installations, and industrial facilities.

Over the past few weeks things have been busy for Dropbox Inc and Dropboxinc.com. From being written into specification documents for a construction project at a major university to landing sales for both custom container modifications and standard Sanitation Stations the people at Dropbox have worked relentlessly to provide prompt design and estimation services. Just this week a custom container modification for a running water restroom/shower combo with a men's restroom, a women's restroom, and an ADA compliant restroom with a toilet stall and a sink sold to a company in Southern California. This week alone Dropboxinc.com has received 19 leads and sent out numerous quotes. A Standard Self Contained 4-1 Sanitation Station (4 men's toilet stalls and 1 women's toilet stall) is in the process of being shipped to a customer in Nebraska, and a 20' Non-Self Contained Running Water Restroom (RWR) is heading to a customer in Indiana.

In an effort to provide a better visual for our potential customers and container modification enthusiasts Dropboxinc.com is currently under photo gallery construction. In the past a single large photo gallery that displayed on one page and try, often times unsuccessfully, to illustrate the sheer size and capabilities of Dropbox Inc. Check back regularly for updated photo galleries as they become available.

The first of the photo galleries to be improved was for the Sanitation Station. The Sanitation Station is a fully self contained running water restroom that is fully insulated with finished walls, spray-in, rubberized, non-skid flooring, HVACs and only requires a 220 single phase hook up to run. Once these units are on site they can be plumbed into existing water and sewer lines or the waste/fresh-water tanks located in its mechanical room can be utilized to make the unit self contained.

The second of the photo galleries that was improved was for the Shower Shack, which much like it's predecessor, the Sanitation Station, can be setup to be self contained or plumbed into existing water and sewer lines. The standard Shower Shack is essentially a modular shower room with 8 shower stalls, and 20 lockers that can be transported from location to location as construction companies move on to new projects.

The third of the photo galleries that needed some work was for the Decontamination Station, which is a portable decontamination shower unit fully equipped with a dirty room, a shower room with 8 showers, and a clean room with 20 lockers. The Decontamination Station was built to give employees working in arsenic, lead, or asbestos contaminated areas to be able to remove contaminates and change into clean street clothes before leaving work. These units, like all Dropbox container modifications, come fully insulated and are climate controlled via two HVACs.

The last of the photo galleries to be improved in this first blast of revamping was the DropOffice gallery. These multi-functional units, like their predecessors, are fully insulated, have over head lighting, and come standard with electrical outlets for office/break room equipment. Probably one of the best features of the DropOffice is it's versatility: DropOffices can be used as modular offices, portable break rooms, office trailers, and even mobile living quarters.

Check back as the Dropboxinc.com site and photo gallery will be continually updated.
