Guangxi Container House Construction

The construction of container houses in Guangxi requires comprehensive consideration of factors such as price, approval, and manufacturer selection.

I. Price Range

The prices of container houses in Guangxi vary depending on their type, function, and configuration. The price of ordinary residential container houses ranges from 8,900 yuan to 9,550 yuan, suitable for scenarios such as construction site dormitories and guard posts. Creative design types, such as cultural tourism homestays and commercial street shops, have higher prices. For example, the renovation project of a container creative park can reach 45,000 yuan. If customized container villas or modular houses are required, the minimum order quantity is 50 square meters, with prices starting from 1,280 yuan per square meter, including exterior wall decoration, interior decoration, and supporting facilities such as water, electricity, doors, and windows.

II. Approval and Compliance

According to the reply from the Natural Resources Bureau of Luchuan County, Guangxi, the following conditions must be met for placing container houses on homesteads as residences:

1. Land Nature: The homestead must be construction land. Non-construction land (such as agricultural land) is prohibited from being covered by containers or used for house construction.
2. Functional Restrictions: After being transformed into houses, container houses have the functions of buildings and must comply with planning regulations. Currently, Guangxi has not issued clear regulations, but policies from other regions can be referred to. For example, in Nanjing, containers are only allowed as non-operating construction houses or temporary dormitories for employees and are prohibited from being used as permanent residences or operating premises.

III. Manufacturer Selection and Construction Process

1. Recommended Manufacturers:

   • Guangxi Lvzhu Prefabricated Building Co., Ltd.: Provides design and construction services for light steel villas, container homestays, and commercial street shops, supporting customized needs. Case studies include a 3-story packed container office building for the Liuzhou MCC project.
   • Guangxi Gaojing Steel Structure Engineering Co., Ltd.: Focuses on the production of container mobile houses, with products covering construction site residential containers, packed container houses, mobile toilets, etc., supporting one-stop services from raw material procurement to installation.
   • Guangxi Weiguan Integrated Housing Co., Ltd.: Its business includes the production and installation of steel structure projects, movable plank houses, and integrated container houses, suitable for scenarios such as engineering camps and temporary buildings.

2. Construction Process:

   • Requirement Communication: Clarify requirements such as the purpose, area, and configuration of the house.
   • Scheme Design: The manufacturer provides drawings and quotations. For example, the container villas provided by Guangxi Lvzhu include area options of 60-120 square meters and a height of 8 meters, suitable for rural areas or scenic spots.
   • Production and Installation: The manufacturer is responsible for processing, transportation, and on-site assembly. Some enterprises support customized production within Guangxi.
   • Acceptance and Maintenance: After delivery, after-sales maintenance services are provided to ensure the safety and normal functioning of the house.
