I. Determine Your Budget

  Before the container house plan starts, the first thing you need to do is to set a reasonable budget. Because the modular container house is mainly made of steel structures, sandwich panels, and a simple electric system. So compared with traditional buildings, container houses are more economical. But it still depends on the location, size, design, and function of your house. The size of each standard container unit is 20*7.8*9.5 feet, and it can be used alone or combined horizontally and vertically for a larger space.

  You need to measure the length and width of the land area first. Normally, the house area should not exceed 72% of the building area. For example, if your land area is 1000 square feet, then the building area is best about 720 square feet. Each of our standard container house areas is 193 square feet, and the price of each one is 2599-2999 USD. So you can roughly calculate the budget of the house.

  Furthermore, we recommend that you put together an extra 25% of your respective spending budget as an unexpected emergency account. This can be a spending budget reserved for unexpected slow downs and costs within the development process. Or household furniture and decoration and many others. Most of all, this spending budget is simply the price of the house and does not include ocean freight.

II. Know Your Local Building Requirements

  The container house is an extremely secure temporary building. Each of the styles happen to be in agreement together with the building needs. Usually, it is possible to construct the container house freely inside your place. Of course, the requirements of various regions are very different. Our recommendation is that you contact your local building division to discover more information about the building rules in your town.

  Our container houses have been exported to South Africa, Asia, South America, and many other regions. According to our experience, almost all of them meet the local building requirements.
