Refrigerator House Container

Admin September 15, 2026

Refrigerator house containers generally refer to refrigerated containers, which are specialized containers capable of transporting temperature-sensitive goods at specified low temperatures. Similar to large refrigerators, they can maintain a temperature range from -30°C to +30°C. The following provides an introduction from the aspects of size, price, usage, and benefits:

Size: Common sizes of refrigerated containers include 20-foot, 40-foot, and 40HQ (high cube) containers. The 20-foot refrigerated container has relatively small internal space and is suitable for transporting temperature-controlled goods with smaller volumes. The 40-foot refrigerated container has a larger capacity and can carry more goods. The 40HQ refrigerated container has an advantage in height, providing greater vertical space for convenient stacking of goods.

Price: Prices vary depending on multiple factors, including the degree of newness, size, brand, and configuration. The price of a new 20-foot refrigerated container may range from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand yuan. The prices of new 40-foot and 40HQ refrigerated containers usually range from over a hundred thousand to several hundred thousand yuan. Second-hand refrigerated containers are relatively cheaper. A second-hand 20-foot refrigerated container may cost only a few thousand to tens of thousands of yuan, while the prices of second-hand 40-foot and 40HQ refrigerated containers range from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand yuan.

Usage: They are mainly used for transporting frozen, refrigerated, or low-temperature goods. In the food industry, they can be used to transport perishable foods such as meat, seafood, fruits, and vegetables, ensuring their freshness and quality during transportation. In the pharmaceutical field, they can transport temperature-sensitive medical supplies such as vaccines and drugs, ensuring their efficacy and safety. They can also be used to transport plants and flowers, providing them with a suitable temperature environment.

Benefits: They have temperature controllability and can precisely adjust the temperature according to the needs of different goods to ensure their quality. They have good airtightness and can effectively prevent the impact of the external environment on the goods, such as dust and moisture. They have strong mobility, facilitating the transportation of goods between different locations and improving logistics efficiency. They are reusable, reducing transportation costs.
