Purchase of Refrigerated Container Houses

When purchasing refrigerated container houses, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as price, suppliers, inspection standards, and key purchasing points. Here is a detailed analysis:

Price: The prices of second-hand refrigerated container houses vary depending on the container condition, configuration, and regional differences. For example, the price of a basic refurbished residential model is within 10,000 yuan, while the price of a high-end refurbished residential model needs to be determined through face-to-face negotiations. When purchasing in bulk, prices may be discounted based on the manufacturer's situation.

Supplier Selection:

• Professional Manufacturers: For example, Xi'an Tengdaxing Housing Engineering Co., Ltd. provides services such as the design, manufacturing, rental, and sales of container houses. It has professional production workshops and design, production, and installation personnel, and can provide infrastructure such as residential and office container houses.
• B2B Wholesale Platforms: Consultations can be conducted on various platforms across the internet to find transfer sources.
• Local Entities: Integrated housing companies have yards in Beijing, Tianjin, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, Chongqing, and other places, allowing for on-site inspections.

Inspection Standards:

• Structure: Check whether the four corner columns and bottom crossbeams are bent or rusted through, whether there are cracks in the welds, and whether there is water accumulation and rusting at the bottom.
• Roof/Walls: The corrugated sheets should have no rust holes. Inspect for water leakage during rainy days. Minor surface rust can be repaired, but large areas of bulging rust should avoid purchase.
• Floor: It should not feel soft when stepped on, and there should be no mildew spots or holes. The cost of replacing a rotten floor is extremely high.
• Insulation: Remove the corner trim to inspect the rock wool. If it is damp, caked, and blackened, the insulation is ineffective and prone to mildew. It is strongly advised not to purchase for residential use in northern regions.
• Electrical Wiring: There should be no exposed or aged wires, and there should be leakage protection. Old wires pose significant safety hazards for residential use.
• Door and Window Seals: Aging rubber strips can cause air and water leakage, affecting living conditions.

Key Purchasing Points:

• Confirm Container Condition and Structure: Pay attention to whether there is water leakage and the degree of rusting. It is best to request an inspection report.
• Clarify Dimensions and Configuration: Confirm whether additional installations such as doors, windows, insulation layers, and electrical wiring are required.
• Pay Attention to Transaction Security: Prioritize companies with qualification verification and a long establishment history. Sign a contract and clarify after-sales responsibilities.
