Know the rules
Florida Rules for Moving a Mobile Home in Tampa
Four Florida requirements shape every move. Here’s what they are and who handles each one.
Licensed installer and decal
Under Fla. Stat. § 320.8249, anyone who installs a mobile home in Florida needs a state installer license, and a state installation decal goes on the home before installation, next to the HUD label. Unlicensed installation is a first-degree misdemeanor. Our installers are licensed.
Escorts by width
Under FDOT Rule 14-26.012, homes over 12 to 14 feet wide need at least one escort and four warning lights at the corners. Homes over 14 to 16 feet need two escorts, one in front and one behind, and move on single-trip permits only.
Daylight, no weekends
The same rule keeps loads over 10 feet wide to daytime travel, and unless the permit says otherwise, oversize moves are prohibited on weekends and holidays. Moves through congested areas avoid peak hours.
Wind Zones II and III
Under 24 CFR 3280.305, Pinellas, Manatee and Sarasota counties are in HUD’s Wind Zone III, and Hillsborough, Pasco and Polk are in Wind Zone II. A home must be rated for its new county, so we check the data plate before we quote.
Florida paperwork
Who Does What in a Tampa Move
In Tampa Bay, the wind zone check comes first. Here’s the split.
1. Check the home
Find the data plate so we can confirm the home’s wind zone rating for the new county.
2. Local approvals
Check whether your city, county or park needs a permit at the new site. We’ll confirm before move day.
3. We get the permits
FDOT oversize permits and escorts, with a weekday, daylight move.
4. Licensed setup
Our licensed installers set and anchor the home and place the state decal.

Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Move a Mobile Home in Tampa?
Most of our moves cost between $2,000 and $15,000. For a Tampa Bay move, the price mostly depends on:
- Home size: double- and triple-wides need more trucks and a split and rejoin.
- Distance: across Hillsborough County costs less than Tampa to Jacksonville, or out of state.
- Permits and escorts: FDOT permits, escorts and warning lights for wider homes.
- Site access: sandy or wet lots, busy bridges and tight parks.
- Setup scope: wind zone anchoring, blocking, leveling, utilities and skirting.

FAQ
Tampa Mobile Home Moving FAQs
Do I need a permit to move a mobile home in Florida?
Yes. Homes wider than legal limits need an FDOT oversize permit, with escorts and lights depending on width. We get it.
Can mobile homes move on weekends in Florida?
Not usually. Unless the permit says otherwise, oversize moves are prohibited on weekends and holidays, and homes over 10 feet wide travel in daylight only.
When does a mobile home need an escort in Florida?
Homes over 12 to 14 feet wide need at least one escort and four corner warning lights. Homes over 14 to 16 feet need two escorts, front and rear.
Who can install a mobile home in Florida?
A state-licensed mobile home installer, or a direct employee working under one. A state installation decal goes on each home. Our installers are licensed.
What wind zone is Tampa in?
Hillsborough, Pasco and Polk counties are in HUD Wind Zone II. Pinellas, Manatee and Sarasota are in Wind Zone III, so a home moving there must be rated for Zone III.
