PRICING

PRICING STRUCTURE-

Camp Box of Honolulu tries to provide economical options for Hawaiian life by itemizing the cost of every item so anyone can custom design a unit that fits any size desired, any budget and amount of finishing or totally unfinished as wished.  Units can be rounded either vertically or horizontally or made with square corners as desired.   Vertical radius corners are slightly more complex and have an upcharge.

Custom building a home yields countless detail options to make it your special place.  We will work with you through every decision, and while this simple price sheet is still long, if you simply want the quick formula to calculate what you want; then the formula is $25 per square foot for unfinished box, add $5 per square foot to paint inside and out; add $1000 for simplest bathroom, and add $500 for simplest kitchen sink.

Our company focus is not on profit, rather the enjoyment of providing a happy space for one to call home; thus we are never going to squabble about minor issues, or try to add on extra charges.  The entire process is a cooperative team effort of trust to treat each other fairly and not ever take advantage to reach our common goal in the most efficient and cost effective manner.  We look forward to a mutually beneficial partnership where we all win.

A completely finished 7 by 10 unit, with trailer, painted inside and out one color, complete bathroom and mini-kitchen, and sleeping loft for $4,800 total.

8 by 8 –  A totally unfinished box with square corners and wheel wells and trailer tongue, windows and door for $2000      To have the corners rounded horizontally add $100.

8 by16 -Same unfinished type unit with the same features as the prior unit, so that it remains under 120 square feet to avoid Honolulu building permitting so that it can be a permanent accessory structure is priced at $3000.

8 by 16 complete with mini-bathroom, shop made base kitchen cabinets and sink and painted one color in and out $4,500.

8 by 22 no axles-unit with the same minimal features and completely unpainted and unfinished, with wheel wells for 2 tires, regular price of $4,500.

8 by 30 foot unfinished unit with the same minimal features, regular price of $6000

Finished unit with mini-bath and 3 foot shop base and kit sink, no axles and painted one color in and out, $7500.

We can price towing packages for any unit with 3, 4 or 5 axles.

Larger units become more logical to build in place as delivery cost rise and the more likelihood of units being more semi-permanent.  Depending on how flat the location is, we can price either a block, 2 by 4, 4 by 4 or steel pipe temporary foundation system can be priced. These units will expand to 9 feet wide with a 10 foot roof system, with a totally unfinished box 40 feet long excluding any foundation at $9000.

On site construction allows us to build lower to the ground and thus minimize the foundation cost, otherwise most trailer delivery yields a 2 to 3 foot foundation.  Lowering a unit after delivery is not very feasible.

In semi-permanent applications we can connect several units together at different levels to create an ultra-modern pod cluster house as large as one wishes.

Basic Construction-All campers are single wall wood construction; utilizing standard common materials and methods, for a simple and economical product/unit.  All of the wood components are pressure treated except the wall panels which requires nominal thickness material to achieve the rounded facade.  We can treat the panels with borate ourselves to be resistant to termites, but we do not have a source or facility to do pressurized treatment.  As termites prefer to burrow into the wood they live in the minimal thickness will not be ideal or conducive to termites.   Units of completely treated materials can be produced with square corners, but the finish will not be as smooth, and is and additional cost of eight dollars per linear foot of unit length. (ie 20 ft unit adds $160)

Camp Box tries to produce as many components ourselves here on the islands to help keep the overall cost of each unit affordable, as well as utilizing local labor, to provide local jobs.  If simple island made windows and doors or other components do not offer the refined appearance or function you desire we can certainly upgrade any feature you desire.  Mainland manufactured vinyl or aluminum windows and prehung doors of any style can be priced.  Ours doors are made directly from the section of wall panel that is cut from the opening so there is no waste.  As the entire design of our units focuses on stock sizing so that the minimize scrap and waste.  While most manufactured doors are square; we will gladly price and install any door you desire.  Store bought exterior standard door add $100.
