How many people does a welfare unit hold?

18 August 2026

Capacity depends on size. A 12ft mobile welfare unit typically accommodates up to 7 people, and a 16ft unit up to 8. Larger static units of 20ft to 24ft take bigger crews, and canteen and mess units run from 10ft to 32ft. If your headcount is above the capacity of a single unit, two units stacked or sited together is the normal solution.
