Length of Container Houses

Quản trị 15 tháng 9, 2026

The length of container houses varies depending on their type and purpose, with common lengths being 3 meters, 6 meters, 7 meters, and 12 meters, and other lengths can also be customized according to needs. Details are as follows:

Standard Sizes

  1. 3-meter-long container: Typically measures 3 meters in length, 3 meters in width, and 2.8 meters in height, with an area of 9 square meters. This smaller size is usually used in scenarios with lower space requirements, such as temporary tool sheds or small storage rooms. Due to the potential for material waste with such a small size, it is generally only produced when explicitly requested by customers.
  2. 6-meter-long container: The standard specifications are 6 meters in length, 3 meters in width, and 2.8 meters in height (domestic standard) or 6 meters in length, 2.4 meters in width, and 2.9 meters in height (export standard), with an area of 18 square meters. This is the most common type on the market, widely used in construction sites, road construction, and other scenarios, serving as single-person offices, dormitories, or shops.
  3. 7-meter-long container: Measures 7 meters in length, 3 meters in width, and 2.8 meters in height, with an area of 21 square meters. These containers are often used for two-story mobile homes, equipped with corridors and balconies, suitable for scenarios requiring multi-level use.

Special Sizes

  1. 12-meter-long container: Composed of building-specific containers, each approximately 12 meters long, 2.4 meters wide, and 3 meters high. These large containers can be flexibly stacked through modular design and are commonly used in multi-story buildings or landmark projects.
  2. Shipping containers: Common lengths include 5.69 meters, 11.8 meters, and 13.58 meters, with dimensions such as 5.69m×2.13m, 11.8m×2.13m, and 13.58m×2.34m. These containers are primarily used for port transportation but can also be converted into temporary housing or office spaces.

Custom Sizes
According to customer needs, the length of containers can be flexibly adjusted, such as non-standard sizes like 3m×8m, 3m×9m, and 3m×12m. Customized types can adapt to special site conditions or functional requirements, such as fitting into narrow spaces or optimizing for wind and earthquake resistance.
