Tiny home delivery, managed from start to finish
Tiny Homes 4U coordinates delivery across Australia and builds a transport plan around your home, your destination and your site. No two deliveries are the same, so we do not treat freight like a flat parcel rate. Before we confirm a delivery method, we look at the home you have chosen, the exact route, how the truck reaches your block, how the home is unloaded and where it needs to sit.

Enter your postcode for an indicative road-freight estimate.
The calculator gives you a starting figure based on the road distance from our West Gosford base. As a rough guide, road freight works out to around $8 per kilometre, but this is indicative only. Your final freight price is confirmed once we know your chosen tiny home, exact delivery address and your site.

A freight quote built around your delivery
Your freight quote is priced on the actual job, not a broad allowance that can leave you exposed to surprise costs later.
When we plan your delivery, we look at:
When we plan your delivery, we look at:
- Size and weight of your chosen tiny home
- Exact transport route
- Road, driveway and property access
- Gates, corners and turning space
- Slopes, soft ground and site conditions
- Trees, powerlines, fences and other obstacles
- Whether the truck can reach the final position
- Whether a Hiab, crane, permits, escorts or traffic management are needed
Your freight price is locked in
Once we have confirmed the delivery requirements, issued your written freight quote and booked the transport, the freight price is locked in.
Fuel prices can move between the day you order and the day your home travels. Once you have accepted your freight quote and the delivery is booked, we do not pass later fuel increases on to you. You will know the agreed transport cost before the delivery day.

Covered while it is in transit
Tiny Homes 4U arranges the transport and the transit cover for your tiny home.
Your home is covered while it is in the care of our transport provider, through to delivery and handover. You are not left arranging separate freight insurance or juggling several transport companies yourself. We manage the transport process and remain your point of contact for the whole trip.

We assess the delivery site with you
A good delivery is sorted well before the truck arrives. Our team explains what we need and helps you assess the proposed spot.
Depending on the home and the property, we may ask for:
Depending on the home and the property, we may ask for:
- Full delivery address
- Photos or videos of the road, driveway, gates and proposed position
- Measurements of access points and clearances
- Slope and ground condition details
- Details of trees, powerlines, buildings, fences or retaining walls
- A site plan, survey or relevant approval documents
- Confirmation that the pad, footings or supports are ready
- Contact details for any crane operator or on-site trades involved
Preparing for delivery day
Before your home arrives, the access route and placement area need to be ready for the delivery vehicle and the unloading method.
We give you requirements specific to your home and delivery, rather than leaving you to work it all out. Typical preparation includes:
We give you requirements specific to your home and delivery, rather than leaving you to work it all out. Typical preparation includes:
- Clearing vehicles, materials and other obstacles from the access route
- Trimming branches and confirming safe overhead clearance
- Opening gates or removing fence sections
- Providing firm, stable access for the delivery vehicle
- Completing the agreed pad, footings or supports
- Keeping children, visitors and pets clear of the delivery area
- Arranging any licensed trades for service connections
- Making sure your nominated contact is available during delivery
What happens on delivery day
We confirm the arrangements and your expected arrival window before delivery.
On arrival, the transport team checks that access and site conditions match the agreed plan. Your tiny home is then unloaded or placed using the confirmed method. Once it is safely in position, you and the delivery team walk through a visual handover check together.
Final levelling, anchoring, installation, unfolding, assembly and connection of power, water or wastewater depend on the home model and what your written quote includes. We make these responsibilities clear before delivery.

What if the delivery truck cannot reach the final position?
We work through the options with you. That might mean unloading at the nearest suitable spot, using a Hiab or larger crane, temporarily removing a fence, or a different placement plan.
