Admin September 15, 2026

The quotation for container houses in Jincheng varies significantly due to factors such as type, specification, and material, generally ranging from 300 yuan to over 2000 yuan per square meter.

I. Quotation for Different Types of Portable Cabins

The price of portable cabins is significantly influenced by their type. Simple/economical portable cabins have a simple structure and are mostly used for short-term construction site dormitories, warehouses, etc., with a reference price of about 300 yuan per square meter. Standard portable cabins are relatively common, such as light steel portable cabins with a double-slope roof and a framework, with a reference price of about 400 yuan per square meter. Luxury/customized portable cabins have a better appearance and higher configuration, such as luxury flat-roof portable cabins, with a reference price of about 1000 yuan per square meter. High-end/fully-furnished portable cabins use better materials and interior decoration, which may include tiled floors, stone-like paint exterior walls, etc., suitable for long-term or high-quality use, with a reference price of about 2000 yuan per square meter.

II. Quotation for Container Houses

The quotation for container houses is affected by various factors. A standard brand-new container house measuring 3 meters by 6 meters (about 18 square meters) has a wide price range. The basic brand-new container house may cost tens of thousands of yuan, while the second-hand ones usually cost within 10,000 yuan, with some priced at around 5000 yuan. When converted to per square meter, the price difference is enormous.

III. Core Factors Affecting the Price

In terms of materials, color steel plates are inexpensive but have poor sound insulation, while rock wool sandwich panels are about 30% more expensive but offer better fire resistance and thermal insulation. EPS core materials are low-cost but have slightly weaker performance. Regarding specifications, for areas less than 100 square meters, the unit price increases by about 10%, while 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. Geographically, prices in first-tier cities are 10% - 30% higher than those in second- and third-tier cities, and transportation costs increase with distances over 50 kilometers. In addition, foundation treatment may account for about 15% of the total cost. The larger the project volume, the lower the unit price. For small-scale and scattered construction, the unit price will be much higher. In remote areas, increases in labor and freight costs also lead to a rise in the unit price. A double-story structure is slightly more expensive than a single-story one.
