What Locares Locação de Container does

Locares Locação de Container (legal name: LOCARES LOCACOES LTDA, CNPJ 12.294.939/0001-95) is a privately held Brazilian industrial equipment rental company headquartered in Linhares, Espírito Santo. The company rents modular steel containers — built from repurposed maritime shipping containers fitted with thermal-acoustic insulation (sandwich panels with EPS, rock wool, or injected polyurethane cores) and configured for use as offices, dormitories, bathrooms, changing rooms, canteens, guardhouses, ticket booths, dressing rooms, ambulances, hospitals, and storage — alongside telescopic handlers (New Holland, self-described as the largest fleet in Latin America) and guindauto (Munck) trucks for cargo handling and container positioning. Modular units can be laterally coupled or vertically stacked into two-story complexes, and all habitable configurations are positioned as compliant with Brazilian NR-18 workplace safety standards.

The company serves construction companies, industrial operators, event organizers, ports/airports, and agribusiness customers across five Brazilian states (Espírito Santo, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, São Paulo), with the telescopic handler line marketed nationally. The operating model is a direct, quote-based monthly rental with full in-house logistics — Locares owns its delivery fleet and handles mobilization and demobilization without intermediaries. Pricing is non-transparent and varies by container type, configuration, duration, and project location, with commercial engagement driven by a national toll-free number (3003-0679), regional phone coverage, an online quote form, and a field sales team targeting enterprise construction and industrial accounts.

Locares employs 51–100 people, holds no institutional investment or disclosed funding, and operates as a 100% Brazilian-owned limitada. No revenue, management team, patents, certifications, or named customers are publicly disclosed; the company's only documented external partnership is a 2015 social sponsorship with a local football academy.
