Xinjiang Container House Cost

Admin September 15, 2026

The cost of container houses in Xinjiang varies due to differences in region, configuration, size, and purchasing method, generally ranging from 3,000 yuan to 15,000 yuan per set. Here is a detailed cost analysis:

I. Impact of Regional Differences on Prices
In North China (e.g., Hebei, Tianjin, Beijing), container house prices are relatively low due to industrial clustering and a mature supply chain. The price range for standard models (with 50/75mm rock wool insulation and basic electrical circuits) is 6,000-8,500 yuan per set, while fully furnished models (including floor mats and complete plumbing and electrical systems) range from 8,500-12,000 yuan per set. In contrast, the Horgos Port in Xinjiang incurs higher costs due to long-distance transportation from inland areas and the need for insulation to withstand severe cold climates (e.g., ≥100mm thickened insulation layers and designs resistant to strong winds and snow accumulation). Prices here are significantly higher than in North China, with thickened cold-resistant basic models ranging from 8,500-11,000 yuan per set and cold-resistant fully furnished models (including double-glazed windows and bottom freeze protection insulation) ranging from 11,000-15,000 yuan per set, approximately 15%-30% more expensive than equivalent models in North China.

II. Impact of Configuration and Size on Prices
The size and configuration of container houses directly affect costs. For example, small 3m×3m containers range from 3,000-8,000 yuan each, standard 6m×3m containers cost 4,500-11,000 yuan each, and 7m×3m containers are priced at 5,000-12,000 yuan each. Custom sizes or configurations (e.g., adding more doors and windows, upgrading insulation materials, installing air conditioning) can further increase prices to 3,500-14,000 yuan each.

III. Impact of Purchasing Method on Prices
Bulk purchases can reduce unit costs. For example, a supplier in Chengdu, Sichuan, offers packing-box prefabricated temporary buildings at 7,500 yuan per unit, with the price dropping to 7,300 yuan per unit for purchases of 10 or more units. Additionally, leasing is another cost-effective option, with daily rent for a 6m×3m container around 6 yuan and annual rent approximately 2,160 yuan, suitable for short-term needs.
