Frequently Asked Questions
How are the cabins delivered?
Can we collect the cabin ourselves?
While technically possible, it requires a vehicle with a towing capacity over 3.5 tons, dynamic braking, and appropriate vehicle signage and lighting. We recommend utilizing our experienced delivery team for convenience and safety.
Does the cabin stay on the trailer?
Yes, the cabin is permanently welded to the trailer, providing structural rigidity and the flexibility to relocate without needing building consents, similar to a caravan.
Do we need consent for the cabin?
No building consent is needed as our cabins are considered temporary accommodation and are similar to caravans. They do not require consent if under 30 square meters or mounted on a trailer, though local council regulations can vary.
What happens to the toilet waste?
The cabin includes a standard flush toilet, with options for chemical or composting toilets. Waste water can be managed through a macerating pump (optional) that facilitates easy connection to septic or sewer systems. Alternatively, grey water can be reused in gardens or drained into existing gully traps.
Who connects the plumbing or macerator pump?
Connection should be handled by a registered local plumber to comply with health and safety standards, and to meet any local council requirements.
How is my power connected?
A 15m power cord and adapter are provided for a 16-amp supply, with capability for upgrade to 32 amps. For more demanding appliances, consider installing a dedicated power circuit through a certified electrician.
How is the water connected?
What are the site and site access requirements?
How close to the boundary can the cabin be located?
How long is the tow bar?
How high are the cabins?
The cabin's height is 3.3m from the ground to the highest point of the roof when on the trailer, with an interior height ranging from 2.2m to 2.8m.

How can we connect the phone and the internet?
