While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Woefully bad

We’ve rented 2 portakabin units from Portakabins UK for 4 years now for our registered childcare service. Recently the service from Portakabins has gone downhill massively. Our link person is Stewart MacTaggart and he has been very difficult to pin down to attend to safety and maintenance issues, claiming that their maintenance crew is booked weeks in advance and they have nobody available. We have been waiting over 6 months to have a redundant sink unit removed, and we now have a wasps nest behind a vent, between wall panels. We’re not permitted to remove panels or undertake any work to the units, but they refuse to address it. We pay them a huge amount of money for breathtakingly poor service. I’m hoping a public shaming will prompt them into action. Just asking seems to have no impact at all. Avoid at all costs!

Excessive Spamming - Unprofessional Approach

I have been receiving multiple unsolicited emails from Tzena Tate / Portakabin Limited, despite never expressing interest in their services. Even after ignoring several messages, they continue to send follow-ups weekly, which feels intrusive and unprofessional.

A single introductory email is understandable, but repeatedly sending emails without consent crosses the line into spam. Companies should respect potential customers' time and privacy instead of pushing relentlessly for a response.

What a load of poo

What a load of poo! We ordered 4 cabins for an event and on arrival it was clear that the toilets hadn't been cleaned properly. We decided to call head office, who passed us around several people to basically be told there's nothing they can do. Thanks portakabin, you quite literally gave us a pile of s***. Definitely won't be using again.
