Comprehensive Prefabricated Home Import Services

Importing prefabricated homes involves more than just booking a container. Our experienced team will guide you through every step of the process, including:

  • International Freight Coordination:
    We arrange the optimal shipping method, managing collection from the overseas supplier right through to arrival at the Australian port.
  • Customs Clearance & Quarantine Management:
    We can assist you to prepare and lodge all required customs documentation and manage biosecurity (AQIS) inspections. Prefabricated homes often require careful attention to fumigation, timber treatment certification, and structural compliance to Australian standards.
  • Port Logistics & Container Unpacking:
    On arrival, we manage the unpacking of containers, ensuring safe handling of modular components and prefabricated sections, and coordinating the necessary equipment for heavy or oversized freight.
  • Final Delivery to Site:
    We can provide full door-to-door transport, including organising tilt-trays, cranes, and heavy haulage vehicles to deliver your prefabricated home to your nominated address, ready for assembly.

Our expert team ensures your shipment is handled with the highest level of care, compliance, and efficiency, from supplier pickup to final delivery.

 

Common Questions About Importing Prefabricated Homes

Do I need to arrange an import permit for my prefabricated home?
In some cases, yes. Especially if the materials include untreated timber, or if the building requires certification under the National Construction Code (NCC). We can advise you based on your specific shipment.

Can I import a prefabricated home for personal use?
Absolutely. Many private buyers import granny flats, tiny homes, and modular cabins. We help both businesses and individuals manage the import process end to end.
