Learn everything you need to know about planning for, designing and building a tiny house on wheels  in Australia.

Learn how to make your tiny house compliant to Australian regulations, off-grid, vibration resilient, strong and appropriate for an Australian climate. Save yourself months of research, nail-biting stress and possibly thousands of dollars in mistakes.

The workshop is for:

The package includes:

• A full and rich weekend of classroom education with Fred Schultz and your classmates.

• Printed notes are optional. Please consider the environment when requesting printed notes. If you think that you will use the online course as an on-going reference, you may not need the print-outs. If you do need them, you can let us know a week before.

Testimonial:

“May I fully recommend Fred’s Tiny House on wheels course. My daughter became interested. She asked me to give an insight to the  course and the whole movement. Council open night discussions and tiny house expos were a mixed bag of uncertainty. I had a vast building employment and was nearly 65 years of age. I’d worked with truly amazing tradesmen on big projects and became amazed at what can be done. Fred’s Tiny Houses were in a Melbourne suburb nearby. Being arrogant but open minded I listened really carefully to the two day course. I  ordered a trailer, and started. 

I had no fear of the project but everyday I was reminded in my mind from the course, do this, consider this, remember this, and I was  happy I’d gone with Fred’s Tiny Houses. Sometimes I forged my own methods from experience. Sometimes I recalled  what the course set out and I knew; I shouldn’t be so arrogant. I had to remember I was building a tiny house on wheels.

Fred was spot on  in every aspect of the course and extra advice thereafter. I put him up there with the great tradesmen  I worked with over the years and the advice he and they offered. No regrets at all with the tiny house and it’s complete.

One regret really! I wish I had listened more carefully to every point. They are all important. I’d recommend the course which extended my learning.”
