Description

Welcome to the TARDIS - A unique glamping cabin or sleepout designed around an ex Telecom cell site equipment box. If you want a point of difference then this is it!

Its solid! The green box is heavy duty freezer style polystyrene panel and I think it has a painted galvanised steel roof...or it might be stainless steel?!? All mounted on a robust steel frame about 200mm deep. These are rugged, and designed to be craned or helicoptered into place.

I have added the 200 x 200 tanalised skids so I can tow the cabin around the property.

The deck out front is removable

The overhead canopy is supported by a 25mm NB galvanised pipe frame and covered with a long life agricultural fabric from Redpaths.

Posts are 90x90 gauged tanilized timber as are the two rails supporting the roof structure.

The windows were added and are all double glazed - 1 x large in the side and 2 x small on the back so you can look outside when in bed.

Painting didnt quite happen but I can supply the paint matched by Resene for the white additional panels on the rear.

I moved the Telecom box onto site with a large braked tandem trailer then added the remaining components in place. All the additional parts are easily unbolted for transport although it could be shifted with a HIAB using a pilot.

Please call KT Cartage in Kerepehi re a price to shift if not doing it yourself. See https://ktcartage.co.nz I have an estimate from them of $1700 within 100kms of Hikuai BUT DO GET A QUOTE BEFORE BIDDING. KT are excellent and well respected in the industry.

Everyone who has stayed in the TARDIS say it's comfortable and warm. The double bunk bed can be sold too if required.

The cabin is in HIKUAI Coromandel

Collection is required within 2 weeks of winning the auction.

I can assist the buyer with dissasembly if not transported in one piece.

The white cover is ok to be reused but they are cheap enough to replace. I have had 15 years out of the same material over a 15m x 6m structure so its tough and lasts!

Questions & Answers (1)

  • Hi do you know roughly what the disassembled size would be? blorac (223) • 7:01 pm, Wed, 6 Aug HI there. The box is 3m long x 2.4m wide x about 2.4m high. The 200x200 skids are 4850mm long as are the two 90x90 beams that support the roof. The deck can detach. The whole thing is 3300mm high. Transport without needing a pilot would be best taking the box and deck off the skids, and remove the roof. All easy & quick to do. So a min 3T flat deck truck & trailer or 2 trips with a 2.4x4.8m deck flatbed trailer. Kopu Hireworx have a really good trailer with ramp & hydraulic tilt deck.
