Frequently Asked Questions About Renting Cabins

How Do I Arrange Delivery for My Rental Cabin?

• Delivery Method: Our dedicated delivery team transports the rental cabin to your chosen location using our own vehicle. Please ensure unobstructed access with minimum dimensions of 3.9m width and 3.6m height.
• Customer Collection: For safety and insurance reasons, customers are not permitted to collect the rental cabin themselves.
• On-Trailer Structure: Our rental cabins remain on the trailer, providing flexibility and allowing us to bypass certain building/resource consent regulations, similar to a caravan.
• Building Consent Requirements: Our cabins for rent typically do not require building consent if they are under 30 square meters or are mounted on a trailer, adhering to caravan regulations.

What Utilities and Connections Are Available with My Cabin Rental?

What Are the Site Requirements for Placing a Rental Cabin?

• Access Clearance Needed: Ensure a minimum clearance of 3.9m through gateways and past overhanging obstacles, with a minimum height clearance of 3.6m.
• Site Conditions for Cabins: A flat or nearly level site, free from overhanging trees, buildings, or utility lines, is essential for the placement of your rental cabin.
