Temporary Container House Maintenance Contract

The temporary container house maintenance contract should include the following key elements:

1. Contract Party Information
Clearly specify the names, addresses, contact details, and legal representative information of both parties (Party A and Party B) to ensure legal validity. For example, the contract should state “Lessor (Party A): XXX Company” and “Lessee (Party B): XXX Company,” along with signatures, seals, and the signing date from both parties.

2. Maintenance Scope and Standards
Detail the specifications, quantity, and specific maintenance tasks for the containers, such as body deformation, electrical faults, and door/window damage. For instance, the contract may stipulate that “Party B is responsible for repairing deformation in the container body and lifting heads, and any damage caused by Party B’s operations will be handled at the purchase price.” Additionally, define maintenance quality standards, such as compliance with the 12 quantitative indicators in the “Container House Quality Acceptance Standards” (T/CECS 1932 - 2025), including structural load-bearing and fire resistance.

3. Maintenance Costs and Payment Methods
Specify how maintenance costs will be calculated, whether by project or by work hours, and agree on payment terms (e.g., payment within 30 days after completion) and methods (cash, transfer, etc.). For example, the contract may state that “maintenance costs will be settled based on actual projects, and Party A will pay a 4.5% invoicing fee after Party B provides an official invoice.”

4. Maintenance Period and Acceptance
Agree on the start and end dates for maintenance and the acceptance criteria, such as Party B providing an acceptance report upon completion, which Party A must confirm within 3 days. For example, the contract may specify that “maintenance shall be completed within 15 days from the contract signing date, and acceptance will be based on the maintenance checklist signed by both parties.”

5. Rights and Obligations of Both Parties
Party A must provide the containers and accessories needed for maintenance and cooperate with Party B’s work; Party B must complete maintenance to the agreed standards and assume safety responsibilities during the process. For example, the contract may state that “if Party B causes secondary damage to the containers during maintenance, they must compensate at full price.”

6. Liability for Breach of Contract
Clarify breach scenarios and compensation responsibilities, such as Party B paying penalties for delayed completion or Party A paying late fees for unpaid fees. For example, the contract may specify that “if Party B fails to complete maintenance on time, they shall pay a daily penalty of 0.5% of the maintenance cost.”

7. Dispute Resolution
Agree on dispute resolution methods, such as arbitration or litigation if negotiations fail, and specify the jurisdiction. For example, the contract may state that “any disputes arising from this contract shall be resolved through litigation in the people’s court where Party A is located if negotiation fails.”
