Question 1

How many foldable prefab units fit into one 40ft high-cube container?

Accepted Answer

Because our foldable units collapse to roughly one quarter of their deployed height, four folded modules can typically be stacked and shipped inside a single 40ft high-cube container. This is the main reason freight volume drops by up to 80% compared with shipping fully built modular cabins.

Question 2

How long does on-site installation take?

Accepted Answer

A foldable container office is normally unfolded and levelled by a crew of two to four people in a few hours. Expandable Deluxe and Flip series homes are usually habitable within one working day once the foundation pads, water and power connections are prepared in advance.

Question 3

What foundation is required for a PackPrefab unit?

Accepted Answer

Most projects use concrete strip footings, pad footings or screw piles under the steel chassis corners. Because the load is carried by a welded steel frame, a full slab is often unnecessary, which shortens site preparation and reduces civil works cost.

Question 4

Are the units suitable for cold climates and high winds?

Accepted Answer

Wall, roof and floor cassettes are insulated and can be upgraded in thickness for cold or hot climates. Structural frames are engineered for regional wind and snow loading, and units can be anchored to the foundation for hurricane-prone coastal sites. Share your project location and local code requirements so the correct specification is selected.

Question 5

Can PackPrefab homes be used as a permitted ADU?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Accessory Dwelling Unit approval depends on local zoning, setbacks and inspection routes, so we provide dimensional drawings, structural data and utility schematics that your local engineer or permit expediter can submit for review.

Question 6

What after-sales support is available for overseas buyers?

Accepted Answer

Every shipment includes illustrated assembly documentation, an installation video library and remote guidance from our technical team. Spare parts such as gaskets, locks, hinges and panel sections are stocked so that repairs do not require a full module replacement.
