Frequently Asked Questions

What is an expandable container home?
An expandable container home, or a "fold-out" home, is a portable & sturdy home that is designed to be shipped inside of a standard 40ft shipping container to make it easily transportable. The home can be setup by simply folding out the walls, floor and ceiling. If you want to relocate, you can fold it back up and get it shipped to your next site.

Is freight included?
We manufacture our Violet container homes overseas and get them shipped to our warehouse in Mulgrave NSW - this is all included.
Local freight and delivery is NOT included in the price. -

Our lead time is generally 12-14 weeks from time of deposit.

Can I be exempt from council approval?
You may be able to be exempt from prior council approval in your state by putting your container home on a trailer and classifying it as a caravan under your state legislation exemption.

The Violet comes fully plumbed with hot and cold water inlets and separate grey water and waste water outlets. You can simply connect your water supply via a hose into the inlets and you're ready to go.
