TransBuild Checklist

CHECKLIST

KNOW YOUR LOCATION

Ease of access and complexity of site are critical in advising transport charges, site visit is likely to be required.

UNDERSTAND YOUR SPECIFIC SITE REQUIREMENTS

A large building combined with a complex site might require a crane, do you have room for 2 trucks plus your preferred building size? Consider:

Rural vs residential
Commercial vs personal
Primary vs secondary dwelling

If required, book an appointment with your local council planner for further clarification.

SITE PREPARATION

The most cost effective option is to engage local contractors. Send us your address and we can sense check via satellite/GIS maps.
1. Foundations

Once you are a ‘live job’ we will advise a simple foundation plan for a builder to follow.
Client must have this completed before delivery.

2. Power

Electric 16 or 32 AMP or solar options; bear in mind your preference for appliances.
Electrical site works can be completed after building delivered.

3. Plumbing and drainage

Standard residential connections used and drainage required. Waste connection through floor or back wall.
Work could commence as soon as building is placed on foundations.

4. Water

If you don’t have an existing source, purchase tank(s) and pump. Units have 1x inlet valve, it’s that easy.

5. Waste Water

Drainlayer/plumber connect to existing otherwise septic system required.

BUDGET

Understand your site development costs so you have clear budget allocation left for the build.
Our builds don’t go over budget (unless you make it).

BUILDING SIZE

Refer our floor plans and spec sheets for details.

TARGET DELIVERY

Heads up: we suffer from the Xmas rush as well, start your project in June/July to avoid disappointment!
Allow approximately 2 months build time for transportable building built to code. Assume an additional 5-8 weeks for council consent process and logistics on top of build time.
