Where to Find Container Houses

Container houses can be found in areas related to the Nagoya Asian Games, on e-commerce platforms, through professional integrated housing companies, and via shipping-related channels, as detailed below:

Areas Related to the Nagoya Asian Games

To reduce costs, the 2026 Nagoya Asian Games did not build a large athletes' village. Instead, it used cruise ships, container houses, and hotels to accommodate athletes and officials from participating delegations. These container houses are distributed across five cities, but their accommodation conditions have many issues, such as cramped spaces, inappropriate bed sizes, poor sound insulation, insufficient air conditioning, and instances of water accumulation and backflow during heavy rain.

E-commerce Platforms

On e-commerce platforms like 1688, numerous merchants sell various types of container houses and related products. For example, Suzhou Mingshuang Integrated Housing Technology Co., Ltd. offers foldable container houses starting at 83.6 yuan; Shandong Weichang New Building Materials Co., Ltd. provides light steel container houses starting at 188 yuan; and Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd. offers customized container houses starting at 300 yuan. These products cover various types, including temporary living, office, and simple box-type folding options, with delivery times ranging from 48 hours to 7 days, and some offer replacement services.
