Old Container House for Sale
Admin 15 de septiembre de 2026
The sales information for old container houses is quite diverse, with prices varying depending on the region, specifications, container condition, and configuration. When purchasing, it is necessary to comprehensively consider market conditions, supply channels, and inspection standards. Here is the specific information:

I. Price Range
- Basic refurbished residential model (rust removal and painting, old flooring, simple electrical and plumbing repairs): The price is usually within 10,000 yuan, suitable for scenarios with limited budget and low requirements for living conditions.
- Premium refurbished residential model (new rock wool, Class A fire resistance, new electrical circuits, PVC flooring, hollow windows): The price requires face-to-face negotiation, usually higher than the basic model, suitable for users with high requirements for safety and comfort.
- Bulk (≥10 containers) wholesale price: It depends on the manufacturer's situation. For example, Shanghai Purui Container Service Co., Ltd. offers second-hand container mobile homes, and bulk purchases may enjoy discounts.
- Special-priced containers for construction sites: The price is within 3,000 yuan, but the condition varies. Buyers need to pay for freight and lifting themselves, and there may be structural or functional defects. Generally, it is not recommended to purchase.
II. Supply Channels
- B2B wholesale/manufacturers: You can inquire through various platforms across the internet, such as Xiamen Wangshida Activity House Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Zhuohan Container Service Co., Ltd., which offer second-hand containers in various specifications and configurations.
- Local physical stores: Integrated housing companies (such as those in Beijing, Tianjin, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, and Chongqing) usually have yards where you can inspect the container condition in person, such as Beijing Falilaide Mobile Panel House Co., Ltd.
- Staking out around construction sites: One to two weeks before the completion of an ongoing project, directly contact the project manager or logistics personnel. However, this method is time-consuming and offers limited choices, so it is generally not recommended.
III. Inspection Standards
- Structure: Check whether the four corner columns and bottom crossbeams are bent or rusted through, and whether there are cracks in the welds. Containers with severe water accumulation and rust at the bottom should be abandoned directly.
- Roof/walls: The corrugated sheets should have no rust holes. Inspect for water leakage on rainy days. Minor surface rust can be repaired, but containers with large areas of bulging rust should not be purchased.
- Flooring: There should be no soft feeling when stepping on it, and no mildew spots or holes. Replacing a rotten floor is extremely costly, so it needs to be checked carefully.
- Insulation: Remove the corner trim to check the rock wool. If it is damp, caked, and blackened, the insulation is ineffective and prone to mildew. This should be avoided in residential scenarios in northern regions.
- Electrical circuits: The wires should have no exposed aging, and be equipped with leakage protection devices. Old electrical circuits pose safety hazards and need to be evaluated carefully.
