Your local ICBC or BCAA, national transport agency or insurance company, depending what country you're in Anywhere you like where the landowners will let you (if that's you, you're a lucky duck). Legally, we have to say to check with your local by-laws etc. That being said, you can legally park a home on a trailer anywhere a flat deck trailer or RV may be legally parked. If you want some more in-depth thoughts and ideas from us on this topic, check them out here.
If we build your home, your castle on wheels shall have a VIN, which will allow you to insure your home as an RV. How do we make this magic happen? We are currently seeking certification as a Recreational Vehicle Manufacturer. If you built your home yourself, or have it parked in a sketchy back alley somewhere, you can insure it as a regular trailer, or as a recreational vehicle. You'll have to provide the VIN for the "vehicle", which, if you built the house on a trailer, your VIN will be registered as a trailer, not an RV. To register as an RV, you'll need an RV VIN, which may require that the trailer be built by a registered RV manufacturer, or that you register your trailer under an RV manufacturer. I foresee laws being changed in this area in the next decade. If you have a wood stove or anything not to code in your home-on-a-trailer-bed/tiny home, you may have difficulty insuring your home as anything but a regular trailer. I always recommend to make sure everything's to code, and to have all work done by licensed tradespeople.
We custom build every trailer - your foundation (insert umpteen bazillion proverbs here) is the most important part of your home. If you bring us a trailer to build on, we will test it Mythbuster style. If it somehow vanishes during our testing, we'll build you a new one.If you have your design planned to the teeth, this will be much easier for you. Good luck with the patience though. 4-8 weeks, depending on how much we want to see you squirm. Time depends on complications in design or you - eh hem - changing your mind. Which we totally expect, by the way. Our homes are engineered to road restriction height and width, with cap weight in mind. Let's just say we've done our research. We use recycled, upcycled, downcycled, new, used, unwanted, abandoned, donated, purchased and all other kinds of materials. If you want eco-friendly stamps on everything, we'll get the little faeries out just for you. But seriously, living small decreases your footprint and decreases the resources used substantially, and on top of that, we do try to be as eco-friendly as possible, and we do take your allergies and sensitivities possible - we know that's probably a big part of why you want to live this way!
All our houses are insulated as per normal construction regulations, based on the area for the designated home. So, for example, in the Lower Mainland we would use R16-R24 insulation. In Alaska, we would use R40-R60. Variables such as heating method, number of windows, roof style, size of home, etc. would be part of the calculation process to determine the best rating for a tiny house. We will work with you on your design, unless you choose not to be a part of the process; in that case we will work with our star four-legged employee, Scotch – he works for dog treats! In the design process, we will ask you so many questions you will wonder if you're applying for residency on Mars. Hi, my name is Kayla, and I'm here to help. Start with what you want, not what you can't have or what won't work - I stop listening at that point. Start with your dream home, even if it's on a fluffy cloud of dancing ponies. We can work with that. We can't work with "I don't want" or "I can't" - chances are you want a whole lot of other things that are way more inspiring, and you can have what you think you can't, you just haven't thought of the possibilities yet.
