Jinan Container House Price List

Admin September 17, 2026

The price of container houses in Jinan varies significantly depending on factors such as type, configuration, and whether they are rented or purchased. Here is a reference for the prices of common types:

I. Rental Prices

  1. Rental by Area: The rental price of assembled container houses in Tianjin and Jinan is 168.00 yuan per square meter, and the rental price of residential and office container houses is 165.00 yuan per square meter. Such prices are usually suitable for short-term use scenarios, such as temporary offices on construction sites and event exhibition halls. The rental period is flexible, but attention should be paid to the area calculation method (e.g., based on the actual used area or the projected area of the container).
  2. Rental by Whole Container: The rental price of custom-made folding container houses, railway container-based assembled container houses, and Zhongjiang Lvjian brand container houses in Weifang, Shandong, is 3800.00 yuan per unit. Such prices are suitable for scenarios that require high functional integrity, such as independent offices and dormitories, but it is necessary to confirm whether internal facilities (such as beds and tables and chairs) are included.

II. Purchase Prices

  1. Standard Container Refitted Houses:
    • Basic model (refitted from a second-hand container, only with cutting and door and window installation): 5000 - 15000 yuan;
    • Medium-configuration model (with added insulation layer, electrical circuits, and flooring): 15000 - 30000 yuan;
    • High-configuration model (with bathroom, air conditioner, and customized interior): 30000 - 80000 yuan. Such prices are suitable for long-term use scenarios, such as bed-and-breakfasts and cafes. The higher the configuration, the higher the price, but transportation and installation costs need to be considered.
  2. Brand-new Welded Box-type Houses:
    • Single container (about 18 square meters, including basic decoration): 12000 - 25000 yuan;
    • Multi-container combined suite (2 - 3 containers spliced together): 30000 - 60000 yuan. Such prices are suitable for family residences or small office spaces, and the price is greatly affected by the area and decoration standard.
  3. Folding Container Houses:
    • Basic model (only the container body, requiring additional internal facilities): 10000 - 18000 yuan;
    • Fully-equipped model (including furniture and a complete set of electrical circuits): 20000 - 35000 yuan. Such prices are suitable for scenarios that require rapid deployment, such as post-disaster reconstruction and temporary medical stations. The fully-equipped model can save on post-configuration costs.

III. Prices of Special Types

  1. Fire-resistant Portable Houses: The average price of basic configurations is about 800 - 1500 yuan per square meter, and the regular basic model is about 800 - 1200 yuan per square meter, suitable for scenarios with high fire-resistance requirements, such as temporary houses in chemical industrial parks.
  2. Internet-famous Customized Container Houses: The price of basic customized models is 1200 - 2500 yuan per square meter, and the price of models with exterior decoration modifications, water and electricity integration, and intelligent systems is in the range of 1500 - 3000 yuan per square meter. Bulk purchases can enjoy scale discounts. Special-shaped models such as export double-wing folding expandable houses are about 950 yuan per square meter, and pointed-roof models are about 900 yuan per square meter, suitable for commercial displays or creative spaces.
  3. Regular Flat-panel Residential Containers: The selling price of a bare container is about 9000 - 10500 yuan (excluding taxes, freight, and hoisting fees). Rental is also supported, with a daily rent starting from 6 - 12 yuan, suitable for dormitories on construction sites or storage purposes.
