Second-Hand Large Container Mobile Homes
The second-hand market for large container mobile homes offers a variety of options, covering differences in brands, materials, specifications, and prices. When purchasing, it is necessary to comprehensively consider based on needs.

Brand and Material Diversity
Brands of second-hand container mobile homes include Deshun, Hetaiyuan, Zhongjiang Lvjian, etc. Different brands vary in structural design, durability, and after-sales service. In terms of materials, common types include sandwich panels, steel structures, metals, color-steel, cement, stainless steel, and light steel. Among them, steel structures and stainless steel materials are suitable for long-term outdoor use due to their high strength and strong corrosion resistance; sandwich panels and color-steel are characterized by their light weight and good thermal insulation performance, often used in temporary buildings or low-budget projects. Material selection should be combined with the usage scenario. For example, in humid areas, it is recommended to prioritize stainless steel or steel structures treated with anti-corrosion.
Specification and Load Adaptability
Second-hand containers come in a variety of load specifications, including 500kg, 600kg, 1000kg, 1200kg, 1500kg, and 18000kg, etc., which need to be matched according to actual needs. For example, a 20GP standard container (about 6 meters long) typically has a load capacity of around 27 tons, suitable for renovation into living spaces for single individuals or small families; 40GP/40HQ (about 12 meters long) containers have larger spaces and can be divided into multiple rooms to meet the needs of multiple people living or working. In addition, some second-hand containers offer special sizes of three meters wide and seven meters long, equipped with compartments and security doors, suitable for scenarios with high privacy requirements.

Quality and After-Sales Guarantee
