Movable rental units

# Rental management for caravans, containers and tiny homes

PropAssist manages rentals that move: caravans, tiny homes, shipping containers, site cabins and plant. Every unit is pinned on one map where you delivered it, and leases, rent invoicing, inspections and maintenance work the same way they do for a house.

## The problem with spreadsheets for movable rentals

With a fixed property, the address never changes. With 40 containers across 15 construction sites, the question “where is unit C-17?” can take a morning of phone calls. Rent, deposits and damage disputes depend on knowing which unit was where, with whom, and in what condition.

## What you get

- **Fleet map.** Every unit pinned where it was delivered, with alerts for missing or old pins and units outside their zone.
- **Leases and e-signing** for each client and unit, with deposits recorded.
- **Rent invoicing** in your currency, with relocation and delivery costs billed alongside.
- **Inspections** at delivery and collection, compared side by side to settle damage claims.
- **Maintenance** requests and work orders against the unit, wherever it is.

## Who it is for

Caravan and tiny-home rental businesses, container and site-office hire companies, portable toilet and plant hire operators, and property companies that run fixed and movable units side by side.

## Questions

**Can I manage caravans and containers with property management software?**

Most property software assumes a unit never moves. PropAssist treats movable units as first-class: each has a location pin, a zone, and relocation history, while leases, rent and inspections work exactly as they do for a flat.

**How does PropAssist know where a unit is?**

When you deliver a unit, pin its location with your phone or on the map. PropAssist reminds you when a pin is missing or out of date and flags a unit pinned outside its zone.

**What kinds of movable units does it support?**

Caravans, tiny homes, shipping containers, site offices and cabins, portable toilets, trailers, food trucks and plant or equipment: anything you rent out that can be moved.

**Can I charge for delivery and relocation?**

Yes. Book a relocation against the unit, log its cost, and bill it to the client alongside the rent.
