40ft Expandable Container House Delivered to Kansas, USA

A New Option for Investing in Vacation Rentals

This project is located in Kansas, USA. The client purchased two UVO 40ft expandable container homes for short-term rental operations in the local area. Each home features:

• 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 kitchen, 1 living room layout
• High-strength steel structure + factory-prefabricated interior
• Large sliding glass door as the main entrance
• Aluminum alloy windows and high-insulation wall panels

Kansas, located in the central United States, experiences four distinct seasons, with cold winters and hot summers. Therefore, residential buildings require high structural stability, excellent insulation, and energy efficiency. UVO's expandable homes perfectly meet these local needs, making them an ideal choice for the client's vacation rental project.

The client's initial three concerns

Will the homes be durable enough given Kansas's changeable weather?

With winter temperatures reaching -10°C and summers being hot and humid, the client was concerned about the container homes' insulation and wind resistance.

Will they provide enough space for a vacation rental?

The client wanted a guesthouse that would attract travelers, requiring a more spacious interior layout than traditional small mobile homes.

Was transportation and on-site installation complicated?

The project was located far from the harbor, and the client was concerned about transportation costs and complicated on-site installation procedures.
