If used for living, it can accommodate about 2 people.

This is a commonly seen standard-sized container house on the market, often found in construction sites and road construction scenarios. It can accommodate about 10 people and can also be made into toilets or kitchens on construction sites.
- Larger Size: 7m in length, 3m in width, and 2.8m in height, with an area of 21 square meters. Mostly used as two-story container mobile homes, compared to the 6m-long size, it has additional corridors and balconies, with the same indoor space.

- 40-Foot High Cube Container: Internal volume is 12024x2352x2680mm (it is inferred that the original text's 40x8x9 feet 6 inches corresponds to this size, as the height of common 40-foot high cube containers is increased).

Customized Sizes Made according to customer requirements, the size and area can vary greatly, and specific details are determined through discussion with the manufacturer.

However, the dimensions and material thickness may vary among different suppliers.
