Three-Meter Container Mobile House
A three-meter container mobile house is a movable commercial or residential space formed by transforming, reinforcing, and decorating a three-meter-long container as the main structure. It features modularity, high flexibility, and a short construction cycle. The following is an introduction from four aspects: size specifications, price ranges, application scenarios, and customization features.

I. Size Specifications
The standard dimensions of a three-meter container mobile house are 3 meters in length, 2.5 meters or 3 meters in width, and 2.8 meters to 3.2 meters in height, with an internal area of approximately 7.5 to 9 square meters. Some manufacturers support height adjustments (e.g., from 2.8 meters to 3.2 meters) or irregular splicing (e.g., L-shaped or U-shaped layouts). By combining multiple containers, the space can be expanded to meet different scenario requirements. For example, a 3m×6m container house can achieve a 'three-bedroom, one-living-room' layout through splicing, suitable for rural mobile houses or homestay projects.
II. Price Ranges
Prices vary significantly depending on size, material, configuration, and manufacturer. According to market information:
- Basic Model: A 3m×3m container house costs approximately 3,000 to 8,000 yuan, with a rental fee of about 3 yuan per day;
- Custom Model: If insulation, heat insulation, water and electricity systems, or interior decoration are added, the price may rise to 3,500 to 14,000 yuan;
- High-End Model: A 3m×6m container house with a three-bedroom, one-living-room layout can cost over 45,000 yuan, including floor-to-ceiling glass and luxury decorations.
III. Application Scenarios
Due to its mobility and modular design, three-meter container mobile houses are widely used in:
- Commercial Fields: Scenic coffee houses, mobile shops, night market stalls, and container offices;
- Residential Fields: Construction site dormitories, temporary housing, rural mobile houses, and homestay villas;
- Special Scenarios: Emergency relief houses, storage rooms, power distribution rooms, and duty rooms.
For example, the 3m container houses provided by Shanghai Shugan Activity House Co., Ltd. can be used for outdoor accommodation or offices; the 3m×6m container houses in Huizhou, Guangdong, support a rural three-bedroom, one-living-room layout.
IV. Customization Features
Source manufacturers typically offer multi-dimensional customization services:
- Size Adjustments: Support personalized design of length, width, and height;
- Function Expansions: Can add glass curtain walls, folding structures, and double-wing extensions;
- System Integration: Include overall design of thermal insulation, water and electricity lines, and interior layout;
- Material Selection: Provide different material options such as color steel plates, steel structures, and aluminum.
For example, a manufacturer in Suzhou can customize hazardous waste warehouse containers with rolling shutters, while the Delaws brand in Shiyan, Hubei, offers earthquake-resistant and soundproof construction site quick-assembly containers.
