Ballard Box Worx Wins Contract to Deliver Custom Container Office for Fort Worth Water Department

Ballard Box Worx, a Texas-based job site office builder and custom container manufacturer, has been awarded a contract valued at approximately $30,000 by the City of Fort Worth Water Department. The project involves the design and delivery of a custom 40-foot container office tailored to the department's field specifications for municipal water infrastructure operations.

The unit will serve as a durable, climate-controlled workspace for construction and maintenance crews, addressing the demands of municipal environments. Ballard Box Worx converts standard intermodal containers into professional-grade job site offices, typically delivering finished units within two to six weeks. The Fort Worth Water Department serves over 900,000 residents across the city and surrounding communities, managing an extensive network of water and wastewater infrastructure in North Texas.

“We're grateful for the trust the City of Fort Worth Water Department has placed in us. Serving a public infrastructure team that does critical work for hundreds of thousands of North Texas residents means a great deal. We're committed to delivering a unit that performs exactly as they need it to - on time and built right,” said Timothy Ballard, Sr., Owner of Ballard Box Worx.

This contract underscores continued expansion for Ballard Box Worx across Texas municipal and commercial construction markets. The company serves general contractors and project owners requiring fast-deploy, code-compliant job site office solutions throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and surrounding areas.

The use of repurposed shipping containers for job site offices is gaining traction due to cost-effectiveness, durability, and rapid deployment capabilities. For municipal agencies like the Fort Worth Water Department, such solutions provide immediate, functional workspace without the delays associated with traditional construction. This project is a case study in how modular construction can support critical public infrastructure needs.

Ballard Box Worx’s ability to deliver a custom unit within a short lead time is a key factor in securing contracts with municipal clients. The company’s focus on code compliance and turnkey solutions positions it well in a market where project timelines are often tight.
