Hefei Baohe District Container House

There are various application scenarios and enterprise services related to container houses in Baohe District, Hefei.

I. Container Renovation Applications The Yicheng Subdistrict in Baohe District has implemented the 'Idle Container Regeneration Plan', transforming idle containers within residential areas into convenient 'micro-service stations'. This model adopts a 'basic services + special activities' approach, with community staff taking turns on duty to provide seven types of services, including daily necessities, family doctors, and errand services. Since its implementation in May 2024, 17 activities have been held, addressing over 10 livelihood issues such as haircuts for the elderly and item repairs, serving more than 500 people. This case demonstrates the innovative application of container houses in community public services in Baohe District, achieving efficient resource utilization through modular renovation.

II. Container Elements in Old Residential Area Renovations During the renovation of an old residential area built in 2000 in Ningguo Xincun Community, although container houses were not directly used, discussions at the consultation meeting included the renovation needs of a 'container community'. The area suffered from issues such as potholed roads and blocked sewers due to age. The community organized a resident consultation meeting to compile over 10 suggestions, providing a basis for subsequent renovations. This case indirectly reflects the importance Baohe District places on renovating old buildings, with container houses potentially serving as a renovation option.

III. Container Enterprise Services Hefei Haolaiju Container Co., Ltd., a registered enterprise in Baohe District, was established in 2013 with a registered capital of 6 million yuan. Its business covers the sales, leasing, repair, and installation of containers. The company holds construction engineering enterprise qualifications, offering supporting services such as the installation of general mechanical equipment and the sale of metal structures, as well as engaging in import and export agency services. Located at Phase IV of Paris Metropolis on the intersection of Hubei Road and Dongtinghu Road, it indicates that Baohe District has a complete container industry chain service capable of meeting full-process needs from sales to installation.

IV. Container Applications in Port Logistics As the location of Hefei Port, Baohe District has seen a continuous increase in container throughput. In the first half of 2024, Anhui Port Group Hefei Co., Ltd. completed a cumulative container throughput of 257,500 TEUs, a year-on-year increase of 12.64%. Hefei Port has improved logistics efficiency and promoted inland shipping development through measures such as 'water-to-water transfer' multimodal transport and automated yard bridge renovations. Although containers at the port are primarily used for freight, their large-scale application indirectly drives demand for container house-related industries in the region.
