How will my cabin be delivered?
Smaller units will be delivered on a trailer towed by a 4x4 vehicle. Bigger units will be delivered on a truck, and moved into place either by hiab or a portable crane, depending on the size and weight of your cabin, as well as on site access. We will discuss the options with you at the time of purchase.

What are the site requirements for my cabin?
You will need a clear and near level site, large enough to cite your cabin. For all legal requirements you will need to contact your local council, as we are unable to give you legal advice.
What are the site access requirements?
Ideally, we will need a good vehicle access to your site, but in exceptional situations we may be able to lift our cabins over obstacles and into awkward places. We are happy to discuss the options with you.
Can I pick up transport or relocate my cabin myself?
You can since all our cabins come with skids to facilitate transport and relocation. However, keep in mind that safely moving a cabin requires machinery and skills that are beyond the average DIYer. We recommend you talk to us first if you wish to go down this road.

Simply give us a call or book a visit and we will go through a checklist to make sure we’re on the same page with regards to customisations, lead times etc. We will then draw up a contract which gives both of us peace of mind.

The safest and easiest option to make payments is by using Direct Credit. We do not accept EFTPOS, credit cards or cheques.
Do you offer finance?
