        1.Convenience in Transportation of Foldable Container Modular Houses

        Foldable container modular houses boast convenient transportation features. Thanks to their foldable design, they shrink to just one-sixth of the original unfolded height. Generally, a regular crane can easily load around 6 units, while a 17.5-meter large trailer can accommodate approximately 17-20 units. This portability makes transportation more convenient, saving clients half of the costs by not occupying excessive space.

        Foldable container houses are highly suitable for long-distance transportation, not only for on-site projects but also as an excellent choice for export. Folding the container houses allows them to be directly loaded into cargo shipping containers for long-distance transportation to ports.

        2.Calculation of Shipping Costs for Foldable Container Modular Houses

        The shipping costs for foldable container modular houses are primarily calculated based on the destination distance or the mode of transportation. The specific billing method needs to be determined based on the actual circumstances. However, compared to other container houses, foldable container modular houses are the most cost-effective choice, especially for large projects. Shipping costs for sea transportation are calculated based on maritime billing methods, while land transportation costs depend on the chosen land transport method.

        Foldable container modular houses have diverse applications, suitable not only for temporary residences that require frequent relocation but also for situations that demand the swift establishment of emergency housing. Additionally, these houses can be customized according to customer requirements to meet personalized needs. If you are interested, feel free to contact us directly at 15802508833.
