The sun-follower, boxed for the courier — our second most popular design as a kit.
Same formula that made the wheeled bed a favourite: waist-high 80 cm planting on braked castors — a fully portable raised garden bed that moves to the warm wall in winter, into shade in a heatwave, and out into the rain for a free watering. At 157 cm it carries a proper crop at standing height.
The kit arrives around 80% pre-assembled with pre-drilled bolt holes for first-go alignment. Our tools pack (bits and a spanner) is in the box. BYO power drill, and allow about 45 minutes including the wheels.
Fill the recycled plastic tub, plant the same day, and the timber stays dry above the castors.
Made in Queensland, shipped to any Australian address. Pick your tub depth above and let it roam.

What do I fill it with?
Quality potting mix straight into the tub. No base layers or crushed rock needed. Capacity: 23cm Depth = 110 litres, 35cm Depth = 220 litres, 41cm Depth 270 litres. Full step-by-step: how to fill your raised garden bed.
How deep should your garden bed be?
23 cm is the budget pick, ideal for herbs, flowers, lettuce and other shallow-rooted plants (it dries out quickest, so it likes part shade or regular watering). 35 cm is the sweet spot most customers choose: it handles tomatoes, capsicums and most veggies while holding moisture well. 41 cm suits root veg like carrots and potatoes, plus potted citrus. It holds moisture best and is the heaviest when full.
Can I move it once it’s set up?
Yes. It rolls on heavy-duty outdoor castors (280 kg combined capacity, 400 kg on the 41 cm-deep LARGE): one fixed pair, one 360° swivel pair with brakes. Best on hard, flat surfaces like decks, pavers and concrete.
Will my deck or balcony get wet underneath?
The tub has drainage holes in the base, so water drains out underneath. On a deck or balcony, add the Drainage Capture kit: it channels overflow away or straight into a watering can.
Will the timber rot or attract termites?
It’s arsenic-free MCA treated hoop pine, built to resist both. If it’s going on grass or bare ground, we recommend a paver or our protective feet under each leg to break the moisture and termite highway. Full guide: Care & Maintenance.
How often will I need to water?
Shallower tubs (23 cm) dry out faster in full sun; 35–41 cm hold moisture longer. The drip watering kit with timer makes it set-and-forget.
How hard is the assembly?
Kits arrive around 80% pre-assembled. Most people are done in about 30 minutes. Bring your own drill and a mallet; every screw and bolt is in the box, plus our tools pack with the bits and a 13mm spanner. Step-by-step Assembly Guides are here, full details in Assembly & Tools below, and we’re happy to talk you through it on the phone any time.
Garden Bed Kit Assembly Made Easy
Your kit turns up about 80% built. We do as much as we can in the shed and still pack it flat, so you’re bolting together a few big pieces, not hundreds of bits. If you’ve used a drill before, you’ll be right.
Quick Assembly Times
- Basic garden bed kit assembly: 30 minutes
- Adding castors: +15 minutes
- Adding a trellis: +20 minutes
What to BYO
- A drill. An impact driver is even better for the screws.
- A mallet or hammer.
- For a trellis, a G clamp helps, but you can do without.
What’s in our tools pack
- A hex bit
- A Phillips head bit
- A 13mm spanner
- A couple of spare bolts and screws
The screws and bolts for the build come in their own labelled bags, and the QR code on the hardware box takes you to the step-by-step guide. Every guide is also on our Assembly Guides page.
