Delivery Information:
1) This is sold as a Pick-Up to allow us to quote each customer’s delivery charges individually. We can quote delivery to your closest depot. Alternatively if you need delivery to your door a hiab truck will be required and will incur an additional cost on top of the 'to depot' delivery fee. If your driveway isn’t suitable for such a vehicle then this product may not be right for you without a carefully pre-planned work-around.
All of this can be quoted via our support team. Alternatively, you are welcome to collect this from our Auckland Headquarters, or make your own arrangements for collection.
2) You MUST be ready to receive your cabin when it lands in NZ as your storage costs at our 3rd party warehousing facility may be significant.
For quote and delivery queries please email support@containerdoor.co.nz with your address and cabin style.
Onduline:
We’re proud to include Onduline roofing with our cabins, offering you a superior upgrade at no extra hassle. We believe in providing the best protection possible, and Onduline delivers exactly that—exceptional durability, weather resistance, and low maintenance compared to standard felt. Designed to withstand heavy rain, strong winds, and UV exposure, it keeps your cabin secure and looking great for years to come. By including this premium roofing, we’re ensuring you get a long-lasting, high-quality finish that adds both value and peace of mind.
Resource Consent
You shouldn’t need resource consent for a cabin that's under 30m2, but we always recommend doing your own research!

HINTS:
- The construction pad must be absolutely level. It should be slightly smaller than the substructure.
- You must allow for air to circulate around the base, so there must be some elevation.
- You may want to treat the underside of the floor-boards and all foundation wood.
- You may want to buy some extra strapping for security.
- You may wish to put insulation under the floorboards.
