Wherever there are mobile cabins, head to Liaoning Shanhai.

Mobile cabins are temporary structures manufactured through optimized modular design of traditional simple houses, offering great convenience as they can be moved from purchase to occupancy on the same day. They are not restricted by geographical environment and can be installed on a site with just a few dozen square meters. They have a wide market coverage.

The containers were also transformed into a rural resort project: "In Zhaishanping village, Han谷Town, Jiulongpo District, a villager named Lü Qing daringly constructed a container rural resort in Chongqing City. Staying in these containers, sleeping and watching TV is not much different from staying in a regular hotel..."

Liu Hongwei, the person in charge of operations in Shenzhen specializing in deck panels and living containers, states that the market price for a 3-meter wide, 6-meter long, and 2.5-meter high container is approximately 11,000 RMB and above. They can sell about 20 containers per month. With the standard prices in the industry and rental income included, the net profit is at least 20,000 RMB.

In Nanchang, to expand the market, container rental companies are also aggressively promoting their services to recent graduates. Considering their financial situation, the deposit for each container room is only 8,000 yuan, but they require a minimum rental of 3 months.

Prospects

Private residential containers struggle to gain traction

In London, many container homes have become apartments for singles; in New York, a "combination living unit" is a 40-foot container; in the Netherlands, containers are used to build dormitories for students. Can these containers in Shenzhen become a savior for the "dormitory generation"? Industry insiders generally believe that private residential containers in Shenzhen are unlikely to take off.

To live independently, you must secure a plot of land, as it's not permitted to be placed arbitrarily. However, if an individual wishes to lease or purchase a container home as an apartment, they must first obtain the land use rights and receive planning approval from relevant authorities, which is considered illegal construction. Gaining land use rights and planning approval in one's name is almost an impossible task at present.

Due to the fact that living containers are not permitted, one can only reside in such cramped accommodations in remote suburbs, under overpasses, or even beside construction sites. Occasionally, individuals renting these containers are those operating small general stores or shops on the roadside, with almost none using them for personal residence. For cozy mobile homes that stay warm in winter and cool in summer, look no further than Shan Hai for mobile panel houses.
