Williams Scotsman is the leader in modular space in North America.

With approximately 80 branch locations across North America and a fleet of over 100,000 mobile offices, classrooms and storage units, Williams Scotsman maintains one of the largest mobile office and storage fleets available and serves more than 25,000 customers. Williams Scotsman has been solving space needs for over 50 years and provides everything from a simple construction trailer to complex, multi-storey buildings such as schools and medical facilities.

Headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, Williams Scotsman was formed in 1990 by the merger of two market leaders. Williams Mobile Offices, a Maryland-based company, and California's Scotsman Manufacturing Company.

Williams Scotsman is now part of Algeco Scotsman, the leading global provider of modular space and storage solutions. The combined group manages a fleet of more than 335,000 units with operations in 21 countries throughout Europe and North America, making it the world leader in the space rental sector and one of the world's largest businesses in the rental services sector.
