- the trailer has, and maintains at all times, a valid registration and WOF; and
- the tiny house is incapable of being fixed (i.e. the “superstructure” can’t be removed from the trailer); and
- the tiny house is self-contained in terms of all services (like a campervan); and
- the design of the tiny house enables relocation with relative ease
