Mobile Home Demolition Tips for Mackinac County, MI

How does mobile home relocation work?

If you're choosing to relocate your mobile home, the process is a bit more complicated than demolition or deconstruction.

Typically, the relocation process will follow these steps:

  • Receive quote(s) from desired contractor(s).
  • Choose the right contractor for the job.
  • Get necessary permits.
  • Stairs, decks, and porch roofs are removed.
  • Utilities are disconnected, skirt is removed, and underground ties are released. (In some cases, the mobile home must be separated into two parts for transportation.)
  • Home is crane lifted onto a flatbed trailer.
  • Trailer hauls mobile home to intended destination.
  • Mobile home is set up and reconnected in its new location.

Not all mobile homes are fit to be relocated, and the time it takes to move it depends on its current state. But relocation is an option if homeowners are particularly fond of their mobile home.
