If I was going to build a tiny house on wheels I had to research what the laws were for hauling this on the highway in Canada. Please do not use my numbers as gospel. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH and check the laws in your location.

This is what I found out in Canada.

So I had the width and the height. I decided on 13″6 8’5″ I would not be legal In Newfoundland. I wasn’t worried hauling 6000 lbs of house to Newfoundland wasn’t in my future. Even if Krystin Pellerin asked me.

Now I just had to decide the length. I figured I would use a tandem axle carhauler as the base for my tiny house. I penciled out some floor plans on graph paper. I decided on a twenty foot trailer. I t was a pretty standard size for a car hauler.

Onto the design.

Update I could not fit the features I wanted in the space allotted. After passing all manners of farm equipment and Oilfield equipment on the highway. All way wider than 8’5″, I checked the rules. If I go just under ten feet wide. All that is required is a wide load sign at the front and the rear. To travel in Alberta. Like I said I don’t plan on holidaying in my tiny house.  Ten foot wide is where my tiny house will end up.
