Moving Mobile Homes

Our expert team will learn everything about the mobile home you need to transport, find the ideal vehicle within our dedicated fleet to transport it, and oversee its transportation from start to finish.

Single Wide Mobile Home Transport
Generally, a single-wide mobile home will measure 15 feet by 72 feet. Given these dimensions, a single-wide home will usually fit onto a standard heavy-duty transportation trailer within our fleet.
Double Wide Mobile Home Shipping
Double-wide mobile homes usually measure 26 feet by 56 feet, with other larger models reaching up to 90 feet long. These will typically have to be divided in half as modular buildings during transportation, meaning you will likely need multiple vehicles for these larger homes during transportation.

As a general rule, there are a couple of different types of mobile homes: single and double-wide homes. Depending on the type of mobile home you have, you will need to employ different transportation methods when moving them to a different location. Knowing the model of your mobile home and its dimensions will help the process run smoothly. It will also help our friendly team provide a reliable quote for our transportation services.
What factors affect the cost of moving a mobile home?
As already mentioned, the size of a mobile home greatly affects how it is transported. This includes how much it will cost for a full-service move. The price of moving a mobile home varies depending on several factors, including:
Size
The size of your mobile home will have an overriding effect on the average costs to transport your mobile home. As you can imagine, single-wide homes cost less to transport than larger double-wide homes, given the complexity and scale of the transportation project.
If your home is even larger than this, you may need to shell out for specialist police escorts or road closures. The height of your mobile home will also affect the costs, for example, if particular routes need to be chosen to avoid low obstacles, potentially extending the travelling distance.
Weight
Many mobile home owners are unaware of how much their homes can truly weigh and how this affects transportation costs. A typical mobile home can weigh anywhere from 35 to 50 lbs. per square foot.
This means that a mobile home measuring 700 square feet can weigh up to 35,000 lbs. Mobile homes that weigh excessive amounts require additional services, specialist equipment and transportation methods, naturally increasing the costs.
Distance
This is another factor that is easy to anticipate: the further you want your mobile home transported, the more it will cost you. Large mobile home transportation vehicles can eat their way through fuel fairly quickly on long-distance journeys compared to local moves.
They won't complete the trip quickly if the new address is far away. Some professional movers may even require specialist tyres and equipment depending on the load and the distance they need to travel.
Permits
Alongside our insurance, we can also arrange for all the necessary moving permits required to re-site your mobile home Long-distance moves of oversized loads with a full service require quite a bit of paperwork.
Therefore it is helpful to have our team on hand to manage it. However, managing all the bureaucracy involved comes with additional costs.
