What Utilities Do I Need on My Plot?
What Utilities Do I Need on My Plot?
The most important aspect is the availability and type of utilities on your plot. If you have access to electricity, water, sewage, or a septic tank, it becomes very simple. If the connections are located under the trailer or in a box, you just need to connect the tiny house to use the shower, toilet, dishwasher, etc.
However, there are plots where, for example, only water or only electricity is available. In such a situation, we have many ways to solve the problem, primarily OFFGRID options.

Yes, our company offers tiny house transport and setup services, however, the new owner must ensure convenient access, meaning the road width on a straight section should be 120% of the tiny house’s width, the ground clearance should be 110% of the tiny house’s height, and the road must be hardened. When the tiny house is transported by truck, a yard or lay-by next to the road will be needed for unloading, with a length of 50 meters and a minimum width of 3.5 meters, as well as a tractor. If the client has doubts about the access conditions, they should contact and send photos to the Aurora Office or the representative they are in contact with.
