An NZ-made Tiny home that is a registered Caravan!
Not a building on a trailer!
This changes everything!
Our largest MODEL, 9.6, weighs only 2,510 kg and is a registered caravan, not a building transported on a trailer.
Being a registered caravan entails specific legal implications. According to MBIE, if it’s a vehicle, it’s exempt from the Building Act, can be parked wherever caravans are allowed, and adheres to clear standards for waste disposal. “Now that’s peace of mind!”
Read our article, “Know the Legalities of Living in an iPamp Tiny Home.”
Caravans have chassis not trailers.
Underfloor storage, insulated top, and BTM for warmth and condensation control.
Three 188-liter tanks for caravan self-containment, complemented by off-grid batteries, storage solution for all your click joinery components and seasonal belongings.

Imagine hosting a charming dinner party using our innovative click-in joinery systems, which seamlessly transform your space into a buffet filled with delectable food and drinks.

The iPamp tiny home is not a building on wheels masquerading as a caravan; it is a legally recognised and fully functional caravan (drawn motor vehicle). That meets "NZS 5465:2001 self-containment of motor caravans and caravans," necessitating parking and waste management.
Owning an RV offers numerous advantages, including:
Complying with established NZS standards especially NZS 5465:2001 self-containment, fosters collaboration with councils rather than opposition.
Exemption from including the RV tiny home in the landowner's LIM report.
The flexibility to rent land specifically for parking.
Independence from traditional building requirements such as foundations or land engineering reports.
Reduced transportation costs.
Adherence to clear waste disposal standards as per the NZS 5465:2001 guidelines for black water dump stations.
Well-defined parking regulations.
The NZS 5465:2001 standard for the Self-containment of motor caravans provides the freedom to park and tow at your convenience.
Utilisation of energy-efficient appliances designed for RVs.
Ease of upgrading to solar and battery systems for enhanced sustainability.
These features make RV living both a practical and appealing choice for those seeking a simpler, more flexible lifestyle.
Ability to join the New Zealand Motor Caravan Association (NZMCA) unlocks a plethora of benefits, including:
Substantial insurance discounts
Fuel discounts
Reduced rates on ferry crossings
Exclusive access to holiday parks across the country.

iPamp deliberately avoids using off-the-shelf components that don't meet the unique requirements of tiny home living and the demands of being a registered RV. Instead, each tiny home is carefully constructed with custom-made parts, using high-quality materials such as 5083 marine-structural grade aluminium. Although these premium materials incur higher costs, strategic investments over 3.5 years in advanced CNC machinery have significantly reduced production expenses by over half. The result is a product that embodies engineered precision, is available at a competitive mid-range price, and is establishing a new benchmark in the industry.
The only tiny home that:
— Sits on a light, robust 5083 alloy chassis.
— Fully designed with Computer-Aided Design (CAD).
— Is entirely manufactured with (CNC) technology.
-
We aim to promote collaboration with councils rather than confrontation.
To facilitate this, the iPamp Caravan Tiny Home has been thoughtfully designed and constructed to comply with the standards outlined in the MBIE (Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment Tiny Home Guide), to be exempt from the Building Act.
The iPamp tiny home distinguishes itself as an NZTA-registered caravan, eliminating the debate over whether it qualifies as a building or a vehicle. Unlike traditional tiny homes on wheels (THOWs), which are essentially buildings that use a trailer for transportation, this classification redefines the concept entirely.

2. Project
-
You're all set to get started!
We will contact you once we receive your deposit to finalise your project details, double-check your selections, and initiate the manufacturing of your included gift, a bookshelf desk valued at $1,699.
At this stage, we focus on preparing your project by finalising designs and determining the placement of windows and doors. Adjusting their positions won't affect the price, but adding or removing elements will. You'll also have the opportunity to choose stain colours and finishes. We can prepare samples to ensure they align with your preferences if needed.
Risk-Free Decision
This phase allows us to confirm that you are 100% satisfied and to establish a manufacturing date. Please note that materials for your project will only be ordered after your deposit for step three has been received. During step two, if you feel we haven't met our commitments or if your circumstances change, you have the right to cancel your order and retain the $1,699 bookshelf desk.
We also reserve the right to cancel your order if we determine our product is suitable for your intended use. In such a case, we will refund you $1,000 while you keep the bookshelf desk.

3. Launch
-
At this stage, we enter a pivotal phase, where we begin ordering materials for your project and often kick off manufacturing your kitchen and other components. A common inquiry we receive is about the timeline for constructing our tiny homes. We take immense pride in delivering exceptional quality, utilising CNC precision, and focusing on meticulous craftsmanship in our designs. While incorporating micro-detailing (OCD) may extend the build time, the average timeline is approximately three months once construction starts.
You're welcome to visit us at any point during this phase; we encourage your involvement as our goal is to ensure the best outcome for you. Please be aware that deposits made at this stage are non-refundable. We do not profit from these deposits, as high-quality materials are expensive. Therefore, being financially prepared for the final payment upon project completion is vital. We can provide the necessary information to assist you if you're considering an RV loan..
-
Typically, this phase lasts 3 to 6 months, including 3 months of build time, depending on our current order volume. We kindly ask for your understanding as we simultaneously assist and collaborate with multiple clients. Therefore, maintaining open communication is crucial.
-
We request a 60% deposit, but we are open to negotiating a deposit between 40% and 60%.

Once your tiny home successfully passes the final inspection and road test, it will be ready for collection, parked out front and prepared for towing. At this point, the final payment will be due. If you plan to pick it up, please ensure your vehicle is equipped with an electric brake controller. Upon receipt of payment, ownership will officially transfer to you, so securing your insurance beforehand is advisable.
If you want us to deliver your tiny home, remember that insurance must be arranged in advance, as ownership transfers from our factory. To be clear, we are not a commercial transportation company and do not have commercial transportation insurance. We also recommend joining the Caravan Association to benefit from exclusive insurance offers and self-containment RV inspections.

Once you settle into your tiny home, we value your feedback and offer a complimentary cutting service for your click-in accessories.

Our primary goal is to ensure your complete satisfaction as a client, fostering your confidence in referring us to others. After all, we are all human and understanding that our clients are individuals is fundamental to our mission.

Remember that we offer the best warranty in the industry for the parts we manufacture. Additionally, other components, like ovens, come with a supplier warranty.

We are committed to collaborating with you to resolve any concerns swiftly.

What people are saying
“My name is Daniel Strekier, and I’m a fellow wood artist. The bike in the background is one of my creations. I was truly captivated by the tiny home you and your team showcased at the Auckland show. The countless hours of dedication poured into this project are evident in the quality and creativity of every detail. I was particularly impressed by how easily the interior layout can be rearranged.
David, your tiny home was undoubtedly the highlight of the show. Your exceptional work left me in awe, and I wholeheartedly encourage you to continue pursuing this incredible endeavour!”
