Every foldable home.Compared honestly.
Boxabl and every company competing with it, in one beautiful catalog: real delivered costs, certification status, setup times and the drawbacks manufacturers can't publish about each other.
Find your home by what matters
Four ways into the catalog, whether you're chasing a budget, a permit, a delivery date, or a thesis.
Featured this season
Base prices shown. Delivered cost is always higher — every model page breaks it down honestly.
Casita
The unit that created the category. A 361 sq ft studio that folds to highway width, ships flat, and unfolds in about an hour. The $60k headline price is real; the $60k delivered price is not.
Compact
A hinged cross-laminated-timber cabin that folds flat and rotates open on site. Warmer and better finished than most of the category, with the import friction that comes with a European build. Base pricing is quote-based and varies widely by fit-out.
19 ft × 20 ft Expandable House
Around $23,990 today — the descendant of the sub-$20k unit that fuels every 'foldable homes are cheap' headline. Fine as a jobsite office, guest room or storefront, and rated to ~70 mph wind, but not a permitted dwelling in most of the United States.
Three mechanisms, one big decision
Hinged folding. Walls and roof rotate open on site. Best structural quality, needs a crane, typically the best insulated.
Container expansion. Side wings slide out of an ISO container footprint. Cheapest freight, cheapest units — and the wall junctions are the long-term weak point.
Self-unfolding systems. Motorised levers deploy the structure in minutes with no crane. Extraordinary for jobsites and relief work, rarely certified as dwellings.
Whatever the mechanism, the label decides what you can legally do with it. Read the permitting guide.
The sticker price is not the price
A $60k factory-gate unit lands somewhere between $95k and $140k once you add freight, a crane, site work, utilities and permits. That gap is the single most misunderstood thing in this category — and the reason this site exists.
We publish realistic delivered ranges for every model, labelled as our estimate, never a manufacturer quote. Rule of thumb: base × 1.6 on a serviced lot, base × 2.2 on raw land.
