Red clay and settling homes
East Texas clay swells when it rains and shrinks in a dry August. Homes on piers settle a little every year. If your doors won't latch or you see cracks over the windows, it's probably time to have it re-leveled. That's one of the most common calls we get.
Pine country roads
A lot of homes out here sit at the end of a long drive under the pines, or on a lake lot with tight turns. A wide load needs a clear path and a TxDMV oversize permit for every section. Good movers will walk the route before they quote.

Questions folks ask
How much does it cost to move a mobile home in Texas?
Typical estimates run about $1,500 to $5,000 for a local single-wide transport and $3,000 to $10,000 or more for a double-wide. Full-service moves with teardown and setup can go higher. Distance, size, permits, escorts and site work all change the price, so get written quotes.

No. We are a free referral service. We connect you with independent local movers and installers who do the work and set their own prices.
What paperwork do I need to move a mobile home in Texas?
Usually proof of ownership (a TDHCA Statement of Ownership) and a tax certificate from the county tax office showing taxes are paid. The mover gets the TxDMV oversize permit for the transport.
