Moving House

It is Winter and I am in a park down to two trailers. We we were gonna tough it out till Spring but now the people in the rented trailer are moving out so now it is just us and there is a very good possibility the park will be shut down now. I own my mobile home but I am renting the land. I’m pretty sure due to winter conditions this can’t be moved. What can I do?

I don’t know what type of weather you are dealing with, but you would be surprised at what type of conditions a mobile home can be moved in. The only time a mobile home can’t be moved is if the local county has road restrictions in effect for heavy loads, but this usually happens only in the spring when the ground is too soggy.

I would start with calling a few local mobile home movers and ask questions.

Also I don’t know about your state, but mine (Washington state) has a program that gives financial assistance to pay to move your mobile home if the park is scheduled to close.

As far as closing, most states have a process that park owners have to go through if they are going to close. Part of that process is giving you a reasonable amount of time to move once you are notified that the park is closing down. Here in Washington, I believe park residence have at least 6 months.

Hope that helps!
