Mobile Home Movers Florida
Mobile Home Movers Florida transports and sets up manufactured homes anywhere in Florida. It handles single-wide, double-wide, and triple-wide homes, and says it is licensed and insured and works to state regulations and safety standards.
A move can be taken end to end: site preparation including clearing and grading, permitting, transport, setup and installation with levelling, anchoring, and utility connections, and hurricane tie-downs to meet Florida's requirements after the move. Homes with attached decks, porches, or add-ons are disassembled and reassembled, and repairs to structural issues or damage can be made before transport so the home is safe to move.
Other services include re-levelling as ongoing maintenance, skirting installation or replacement, demolition and removal of old or damaged homes, temporary storage before final placement, long-distance moves within or outside Florida, hauling of oversized or modular units, and commercial moves of park models, office trailers, and mobile classrooms.
The company publishes cost guidance rather than a price list, and two of its pages give different ranges, so treat the figures as indicative and ask for a quote. It also notes that a permit from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles is required to move a home, with local permits sometimes needed on top, and that homes built before 1976 face more restrictions because HUD construction standards changed that year.

Common questions
- Do I need a permit to move a mobile home in Florida?
- Yes. A permit from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles is required to move a mobile home in Florida, and additional local permits may be required depending on the location. The company includes permitting assistance in its services and helps navigate the state's moving regulations.
- Can a 20-year-old mobile home be moved in Florida?
- Yes, but there are extra steps. The home has to meet state and local safety standards, and inspections and permits are needed before it can be relocated. Homes built before 1976 face more restrictions, because HUD construction standards changed that year.
- What does it cost to move a mobile home in Florida?
- The company gives two different ranges on its own pages. One says a move in Florida usually costs between $3,000 and $10,000 or more; the FAQ says $1,000 to $5,000 for short distances and $5,000 to $15,000 or more for long-distance moves. Size of the home, distance, whether teardown and setup are needed, permits, foundation work, and utility hookups all affect the total, so ask for a quote on the actual move.
- How much does a single-wide mobile home weigh?
- A single-wide mobile home typically weighs between 8,000 and 12,000 pounds, depending on its size and the materials used.
