Admin September 15, 2026
The cost of waste old container houses typically ranges from 5,000 to 8,000 yuan, with specific prices influenced by factors such as house specifications, materials, condition, and purchase quantity.

I. Price Range
- Basic Model Prices: A standard second-hand container house measuring 3 meters by 6 meters (approximately 18 square meters) usually costs less than 10,000 yuan, with some priced around 5,000 yuan. For example, Xi'an Tengdaxing Housing Engineering Co., Ltd. offers second-hand container mobile homes with prices ranging from 4,800 to 5,000 yuan depending on the order quantity.
- High-End or Customized Model Prices: Container houses with higher configurations or custom modifications may be more expensive. For instance, some container houses equipped with fire prevention, waterproofing, moisture resistance, wind resistance, earthquake resistance, and rain protection features can cost up to 23,800 yuan.
II. Factors Affecting Prices
- House Specifications: The size and specifications of container houses vary, leading to differences in prices. Generally, larger areas command higher prices.
- Materials: The materials used in container houses significantly impact their prices. For example, container houses made of high-quality materials like CORTEN weathering steel may be relatively more expensive.
- Condition: Second-hand container houses are usually priced lower than brand-new ones. However, it's important to note that the service life and condition of second-hand houses also affect their prices.
- Purchase Quantity: Bulk purchases of container houses often come with certain price discounts. For example, Xi'an Tengdaxing Housing Engineering Co., Ltd. offers discounts on second-hand container mobile homes, reducing the price to 4,800 yuan when the order quantity reaches 100 units or more.
III. Additional Costs
In addition to the cost of the container houses themselves, transportation and installation expenses must also be considered. These costs vary depending on factors such as region, distance, and installation difficulty, and should be discussed in detail with the supplier before purchase.
