What is the difference between a Transportable and a Relocatable?
A Transportable home is a home that is factory built and transported to site. All of our homes are transportable. A Relocatable home is a home that is transported to site with the intention of being relocated at a later time. The term ‘Relocatable’ usually arises when councils are referring to a granny flat, (or Dependent Person’s Unit). Council regulations allow a second dwelling on a block on the condition that it must be a ‘Relocatable’ dwelling. The idea behind this rule is that once the occupant of the granny flat leaves, then the granny flat is to be removed from the site. Although the term ‘Relocatable’ is generally reserved for granny flats, all of our homes can also be termed ‘relocatable’. We simply use the terminology to suit the situation.
