Dunhuang Container House Price Chart
Admin September 15, 2026
Currently, it is not possible to directly provide a specific price chart for container houses in Dunhuang, but a price range and analysis of influencing factors can be given based on market conditions.

I. Price Range of Container Houses
- Basic Model Price: The price of a basic refurbished residential container (rust removal and painting, old flooring, simple electrical and plumbing repairs) is under 10,000 yuan, suitable for scenarios with low living condition requirements.
- Standard Configuration Price: The price of a standard single-box prefabricated house (e.g., a 20-foot container with dimensions of 6058×2438×2680mm) is approximately 23,800 yuan, including fire, water, moisture, wind, earthquake, and rain resistance functions.
- High-End Customization Price: Premium refurbished residential models (new rock wool, Class A fire resistance, new electrical circuits, PVC flooring, hollow windows) require face-to-face negotiation, with prices significantly increasing due to upgraded configurations; modular villas or luxury container houses can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan, such as the wholesale price of a 40-foot container home ranging from 18,691.68 to 23,418.01 yuan, but high-end customized models may far exceed this range.
II. Core Factors Influencing Price
- Configuration Complexity: Materials (such as color-coated steel plates, rock wool boards, steel structures), functions (such as electrical systems, bathrooms, kitchens), and sizes (20-foot, 40-foot, or assembled types) directly affect costs.
- New or Used Condition: Prices for used containers vary greatly, with basic refurbished models under 10,000 yuan, while premium refurbished models require face-to-face negotiation; prices for new containers are significantly higher than those for used ones.
- Bulk Purchases: Bulk purchases (e.g., ≥10 units) can receive discounts, with specific discounts to be negotiated with the manufacturer.
- Additional Services: Costs for transportation, lifting, installation, etc., may not be included in the quoted price, and the 'on-site delivery price' needs to be confirmed.
III. Practical Suggestions for Obtaining Quotes
- Contact Local Suppliers: Obtain targeted quotes from Dunhuang-based prefabricated house customization companies (such as Dunhuang Mobile Panel House Customization) by clarifying needs (size, configuration, purpose).
- Refer to Industry Platforms: Filter suppliers in Dunhuang or surrounding areas on platforms like 1688 and Alibaba to compare prices and services.
- Clarify Need Details: Provide specific usage scenarios (such as construction site dormitories, homestays, offices) and budget ranges to enable suppliers to provide precise solutions.
