Site & Delivery Costs for Tiny Homes

Tiny Home Delivery & Site Costs

Understanding Site & Delivery Costs for Your Tiny Home

One of the most common questions we’re asked at Summit Tiny Homes is about the cost of delivering and installing a tiny home.

Every property has its own unique characteristics, including location, slope, access, and local council requirements, which means site and delivery costs can vary from project to project.

While we can only provide an exact cost after completing a detailed route analysis and site assessment, our goal is to be completely transparent about how these costs are determined, what’s involved in the process, and when you can expect to receive your estimate.

Here’s what to expect when it comes to understanding your site and delivery costs.

Why Site Costs Vary

No two sites are the same, which is why costs are always tailored to your property. Key factors that influence your estimate include:

  • Location & distance from our factory – download our delivery map here to see if your property is within the delivery catchment areas. If it’s slightly outside, contact us and we can explore options.
  • Site access for trucks, cranes, and delivery vehicles
  • Method of delivery (jacks or crane) 
  • Slope or soil type, which can affect foundations
  • Connection to services – water, sewer, gas, and telecommunications
  • Local council requirements & approvals

We take all of these into account to provide an accurate picture of what’s needed before construction begins.

Initial Consultation

We start by gathering details about your property: location, access photos, and any existing site information.

Site Assessment & Site Reports

We collect detailed information about the exact location on your block, including slope, soil type, access, services, and footing requirements.

Select Your Design

Pricing of the design purely covers the home itself. Explore our range of 1–3-bedroom designs.

Prepare a Set of Sited Plans

This includes recommended footing details. These plans are then used to send to our trades and transport providers to obtain quotes.

Detailed Estimate and Contract

Once assessments are complete, we provide a clear breakdown of your site and delivery costs, including any optional extras.

Site Route Analysis

Our team reviews the transport route from our factory to your block to ensure safe and efficient delivery.

Council Review

We identify any council-specific requirements early, obtain necessary permits and approvals, and prevent unexpected delays or costs later in the process.

Understanding Costs

The base design price covers only the tiny home itself. All site works, slab or footings, delivery, and optional extras are additional and will be confirmed after your site assessment. We’ve broken down the three main cost categories below:
  1. Base Design Price: Standard tiny home design from our website. Includes all internal finishes and fixtures.
  2. Required Additional Costs: Site inspection and route analysis, slab for the tiny home, footings, tree removal (if necessary), delivery and crane and service connections (power, water, sewer, gas, telecommunications).
  3. Optional Extras: Alfresco, decking and landscaping.

All required site-specific costs are confirmed after your formal site assessment and route analysis.

Council Approvals & Local Requirements

Every council has its own planning and building regulations for tiny homes. Our experienced team identifies requirements early and guides you through the approval process to ensure your home meets all local regulations before delivery.

 

From Factory to Foundation

Once approvals are in place, your home is transported from our factory to your block. Delivery and installation are typically completed within days, depending on site access and conditions.

Our goal is to make the process seamless, managing logistics and communication every step of the way.

The best way to understand your site and delivery costs is through a personalised assessment. Our team will review your block, transport route, and council requirements to provide a clear and detailed cost overview before you move forward with your build.
