Difference 1: Transportation costs
Folding container houses and ordinary container houses are widely used in various fields as temporary houses or fixed houses. The biggest difference between them is transportation. When unfolded, the folding container house looks about the same size as an ordinary container house, with a height of about 2.5-2.8m. However, it can be folded repeatedly, and the height after folding will not exceed 45cm. A 17.5-meter truck can be used to transport 16 It can save users considerable costs.
However, ordinary container houses require the entire box to be transported. The quantity transported for the same vehicle model is much smaller, and the loading and unloading time is also longer, so the freight is also more expensive. In addition, ordinary container housing has a higher chance of cargo damage during transportation.
Difference 2: Transfer time
When moving a foldable container house to the next project, you need to pack your luggage in advance, do a good job of hygiene, and then fold it before moving it. Ordinary container houses can be transported as a whole box within a short distance. There is no need to clean the luggage and it can be moved with the box.
Difference three: storage time and space
Both types of container houses have a long service life and can be recycled. When not in use, the folding container house can be disassembled and assembled quickly. Two people can disassemble and assemble one in just a few minutes. Eight of them can be stacked in the same space, saving space. However, the materials of ordinary container houses are assembled, and the disassembly time is longer, and more space is needed for storage and storage.
