Housing Container Cost Standard

Admin 15 de septiembre de 2026

The cost standards for housing containers vary depending on factors such as region, material, condition (new or used), and whether they are rented or purchased. The approximate ranges are as follows:

I. Purchase Costs

  • New Container Houses: For a standard 3m x 6m (approximately 18 square meters) container house, the price range is quite broad. Basic new container houses may cost 'tens of thousands of yuan', with the specific price depending on factors such as material, configuration, and brand. For example, some brands' economical container houses may cost between 15,000 and 18,000 yuan, while higher-configuration or customized products may be more expensive.
  • Used Container Houses: The prices of used container houses are generally lower, typically under 10,000 yuan, with some priced around 5,000 yuan. These container houses may have undergone refurbishment or repairs, but their overall performance can still meet basic needs.

II. Rental Costs

  • Daily Rent: The rent for container houses is usually calculated on a daily basis. The daily rent for a single container house generally ranges from 6 yuan to over 10 yuan, with the specific price depending on factors such as region, type of container house, and rental company. For example, in some regions, the daily rent for a standard 3m x 6m container house may be as low as 6 yuan, while in other regions or for higher-configuration container houses, the daily rent may be higher.
  • Rental Period Requirements: When renting container houses, there is usually a minimum rental period requirement, such as 120 days or longer. Additionally, freight charges usually need to be calculated separately, with the specific cost depending on factors such as transportation distance and the number of container houses.

III. Other Costs

  • Customization Fees: If you need to customize a container house according to specific requirements, such as changing dimensions, adding windows or doors, etc., you may need to pay additional customization fees.
  • Deposits: When renting container houses, rental companies may require a deposit to ensure that the container houses are properly maintained and used during the rental period. The deposit amount is usually between 5,000 and 8,000 yuan, depending on the type and value of the container house.
