Hello, tiny home enthusiasts and dreamers!
Have you ever looked at your tiny house and thought, "Could this be a little bigger?" If you're in the "size matters" camp but still want to keep things tiny and fabulous, then today's blog is for you.
The beauty of tiny homes is their ability to offer a magical blend of coziness and functionality. But what are the rules for stretching that cozy magic just a bit further? Let's dive in!
The Road Rules: Size Matters 📏🚦
Tiny homes are like delicate pieces of art. You can go big, but you've got to keep some things in mind. Here's the scoop:
Width and Height: By road rules, tiny homes can be 2.5 meters wide and 4.3 meters high. Want to stretch a bit? You can make them super long, but trailers generally only support up to 9 meters.
The Big Leagues: Want to go wider? You can hit up to 3.5 meters, but that means sporting a "wide load" sign, extra lights, and a heftier delivery bill. Oh, and let's not forget the added weight – a 3.5 x 9-meter tiny home would have to be lean inside. We're talking separate delivery for things like joinery and appliances.
Trailers with a Load: These bigger models aren't caravans but fall under the intriguing term "trailers with a load." (Isn't that a fun phrase?) It comes with its own set of rules and regulations, so be sure to chat with us if you're thinking of going this route!

Modular Homes: Not on wheels? You can go BIG! We're talking 4.3 x 15 meters. No trailer or weight issues, but it comes with its own set of challenges, like higher installation costs and council approvals.
