Guangdong Container House Price

Admin September 15, 2026

The price of container houses in Guangdong varies significantly due to factors such as type, specifications, and configurations, ranging from 300 yuan per square meter to tens of thousands of yuan. The specific price needs to be determined based on requirements and suppliers.

I. Classification by Type

  1. Simple/Economical Container Houses: These have a simple structure and are mostly used for short-term construction site dormitories, warehouses, etc., with a price of about 300 yuan per square meter.

  2. Standard Container Houses: These are common types, such as light steel mobile houses with a double-slope roof and framework, with a price of about 400 yuan per square meter.

  3. Luxury/Customized Container Houses: These have a better appearance and higher configurations, such as luxury flat-top mobile houses, with a price of about 1000 yuan per square meter.

  4. High-end/Fully-Furnished Container Houses: These use better materials and interior decorations, possibly including tiled floors, real stone paint exterior walls, etc., suitable for long-term or high-quality uses, with a price of about 2000 yuan per square meter.

II. Classification by Specifications and Configurations

  1. Basic New Container Houses: A standard 3m x 6m (about 18 square meters) container house has a wide price range, possibly 'tens of thousands of yuan'.

  2. Second-hand Container Houses: The price is usually within 10,000 yuan, with some priced at around 5000 yuan.

  3. Special-Specification Container Houses: These, such as cross-border direct-supply double-wing folding container houses and foreign trade triple-combination double-wing folding container houses, have higher prices. For example, the cross-border direct-supply double-wing folding container house from Foshan Jiuma Zhonghui Integrated Housing Technology Co., Ltd. is priced at 64,000 yuan.

III. Factors Affecting Price

  1. Material: Color steel plates are low-priced but have poor sound insulation. Rock wool sandwich panels are about 30% more expensive but offer better fire prevention and thermal insulation. EPS core materials have low costs but slightly weaker performance.

  2. Specifications: For areas less than 100 square meters, the unit price increases by about 10%. For areas greater than 500 square meters, the unit price decreases by 10-15%. A two-story structure is 15-25% more expensive than the first floor.

  3. Region: Prices in first-tier cities are 10-30% higher than those in second- and third-tier cities. Transportation beyond 50 kilometers requires additional charges based on distance.

  4. Additional Costs: Foundation treatment may account for about 15% of the total cost. In remote areas, labor and freight costs increase, leading to an increase in the unit price.
