The planning price of container houses varies significantly depending on their purpose, configuration, and materials, with a price range covering from 680 yuan/㎡ to over 300,000 yuan per unit, requiring selection based on specific needs.

I. Price Range Calculated by Square Meters

1. Basic Second-Hand Container Renovation: 680-880 yuan/㎡, including basic water and electricity, suitable for temporary construction site housing or storage space. These houses typically use old containers, have simple decoration, and low costs.
2. Upgraded New Fire-Resistant Rock Wool Container: 1280-1580 yuan/㎡, using fire-resistant rock wool materials, with high safety. A typical case is the guest room area of a popular homestay in Zhejiang.
3. Customized Full-View Floor-to-Ceiling Windows + Smart System: 2200-2800 yuan/㎡, targeting high-end customized customers, with a repurchase rate of 37%. Equipped with full-view floor-to-ceiling windows and smart home systems, offering excellent comfort.
4. Simple Second-Hand Container House: 1000-3000 yuan/㎡, meeting basic living needs but with poor decoration and comfort, suitable for budget-limited scenarios.
5. New Standard Container House: 3000-6000 yuan/㎡, with a sturdy structure, possibly equipped with basic water and electricity facilities, suitable for self-occupancy or small offices.
6. High-End Decorated Container House: 6000-10,000 yuan/㎡ or higher, using high-quality interior materials, with complete functional areas, suitable for high-end self-use or homestays.

II. Price Range Calculated by Individual Units or Rooms

1. Entry-Level Second-Hand Container with Simple Decoration: 5,000 yuan - 50,000 yuan, suitable for temporary housing or scenarios with extremely limited budgets, using old containers with simple decoration.

3. High-End Customized Container with High-End Decoration: 150,000 yuan - 300,000 yuan+, suitable for homestays or high-end self-use scenarios, with customized design and high-end decoration standards.
4. Regular-Sized Container Houses:
   • Length 3m × Width 3m × Height 2.8m (9㎡): Approximately 7,500 yuan per unit (lower price for old containers).
   • Length 6m × Width 3m × Height 2.8m (18㎡): Approximately 11,000 yuan per unit (lower price for old containers).
   • Length 7m × Width 3m × Height 2.8m (21㎡, two-story structure): Approximately 12,600 yuan per unit (lower price for old containers).

III. Core Factors Affecting Price

Material costs, manufacturing processes, functional configurations, and transportation and regional differences are the main influencing factors. For example, differences in steel quality (such as a price difference of 210 yuan/㎡ between Laiwu Steel in Shandong and Baosteel in Shanghai) and choices of interior panel materials (such as the price of broken bridge aluminum system windows being three times that of ordinary aluminum alloy windows) significantly affect costs. Additionally, concealed works such as seismic pile reinforcement and dual-circuit electrical modifications may increase costs by 167-215 yuan/㎡, while functional configurations such as air conditioning, independent bathrooms, and smart home systems also drive up prices.
