Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to install your expandable container house?

Our expandable container houses are pre-assembled in the factory with all components pre-processed and matched. On-site installation requires no complex construction equipment, and only 1-2 professional workers can complete the installation and expansion in 1-2 hours. The simple installation process saves a lot of construction time and labor costs for customers, and the house can be put into use immediately after installation, meeting the urgent use needs of temporary projects.
When folded, our expandable container house is in line with international standard shipping container dimensions, which can be directly transported by ordinary container ships, trucks and other means of transportation, with low transportation cost and high convenience. The compact folded size also allows multiple houses to be loaded and transported at one time, which is very suitable for bulk order delivery to overseas regions such as South America and Southeast Asia, saving a lot of transportation resources for customers.
