Estimate the cost to relocate a mobile or manufactured home — by size, distance, and whether you need full setup.
Manufactured home
Estimated home move
$3,000 – $5,000
Single-wide, full-service (disconnect, move, re-level, reconnect).
Excludes oversize-load permits, pilot/escort vehicles, and utility hookups, which vary by state and site. Older homes may not survive a move or meet destination codes — inspect before scheduling. Always get an on-site quote from a licensed manufactured-home transporter.
Moving a mobile or manufactured home is a permitted, specialized job priced by the home's size, the distance, and whether you want transport only or a full-service move with disconnect, setup, and re-leveling. Typical ranges:
Transport-only means the mover hauls the home; you handle disconnect, permits, utilities, skirting, and setup. Full-service bundles those. Distance matters most for transport, since a mobile home moves slowly and requires permits and sometimes escorts per state.
A single-wide moves as one unit; double- and triple-wides move as separate sections that must be detached, hauled individually, and rejoined. Each additional section multiplies transport and setup.
Oversize-load permits are required in every state you cross, and some routes need pilot/escort vehicles. Longer moves mean more permits, more fuel, and more days on the road at low speed.
Transport-only is just the haul. Full-service adds disconnecting utilities, detaching the home from its foundation, transport, re-leveling, re-blocking, and reconnecting on the other end.
Older homes may not survive a move or may fail to meet the destination's installation codes. Some jurisdictions won't permit relocating a home past a certain age. Inspect before you commit.
This estimate is based on published mobile-home transport and setup rates by home width (single, double, triple) and distance, split into transport-only and full-service tiers. It excludes permit fees, escort vehicles, and utility hookups, which vary by state and site. Always get an on-site quote from a licensed manufactured-home transporter.
Transport-only for a single-wide typically runs $1,500-5,000; a full-service single-wide move with setup runs $3,000-8,000. Double-wides roughly double that, and triple-wides can exceed $20,000 for a full-service relocation.
Transport-only means the company only hauls the home; you arrange disconnect, permits, and setup. Full-service includes disconnecting utilities, detaching from the foundation, transporting, re-leveling, and reconnecting at the new site.
Yes. Moving a manufactured home requires oversize-load transport permits in every state along the route, and some routes require pilot or escort vehicles. A licensed transporter usually handles permitting as part of the quote.
Not always. Older homes may not withstand transport or meet the destination's current installation and safety codes, and some jurisdictions restrict relocating homes past a certain age. Have the home inspected before scheduling a move.
There's no hard limit, but cost rises steeply with distance because the home travels slowly, needs permits in each state, and may need escorts. Long-distance manufactured-home moves are common but are priced per mile plus setup.
Moving your belongings, not the structure? If you're relocating what's inside a mobile home to a new place, a standard household mover is what you want.
