5 Prefab Container Houses

2024-05-05

Modular container homes have become a popular choice due to their cost-effectiveness, environmental friendliness, and adaptability. These container homes are specifically designed for housing and are more cost-efficient to produce directly in factories, unlike traditional shipping containers repurposed for housing. They can be rapidly constructed and deconstructed, making them ideal for use in construction sites, areas affected by natural disasters, or secluded vacation locales.


This article will outline five distinct styles of modular container homes, each with its own unique features and advantages, including flat pack container homes, detachable container homes, expandable container homes, foldable container homes, and double Z container homes.


1. Flat Pack Container House

   Dimensions: 5.8×2.4×2.8 meters

   A 40HQ container can transport 6-8 units

   Flat pack container homes have pre-assembled top and bottom frames to reduce setup time. Four workers can assemble one unit in 1-2 hours. These are shipped with all components like wall panels, columns, and fixtures sandwiched between the top and bottom frames.

2. Detachable Container House

   Dimensions: 6×3×2.8 meters

   A 40HQ container can transport 17 units

   Similar in appearance to flat pack homes but features a modular design where frames and panels are packed separately, reducing shipping volume by 64% and saving on transport costs, though assembly takes slightly longer.

3. Expandable Container House

   Known as a "Three-in-One House", this style can expand from one to three separate container units. It arrives 80% prefabricated and can be set up in just 30 minutes by expanding the sidewalls and securing the structure.
