What it involves and costs
Moving from a park onto your own land adds work at the new end: a pad or piers, a driveway the toter truck can use, and utility hookups. Ask your county or city planning office what permits apply to placing a manufactured home.
Price your move with the moving cost calculator, or check an older home with the move checker.
Worth knowing
- Get the site ready before booking the move

- Setup and anchoring by an AMHC-licensed installer
What to send movers
- Address of the land and photos of the access
- Pad, pier and utility status
- Home size, year and section widths
Questions
Can a mover help with site prep?
Some offer it, others work with separate site and utility contractors. Describe the land in your request and ask in the quotes.
