Know the rules
Alabama Rules for Moving a Mobile Home
Four Alabama requirements shape every move. Here’s what they are and who handles each one.
County move permit
Under Alabama Department of Revenue rule 810-4-2-.09, a manufactured home can’t move on Alabama highways without a move permit from the county office that handles manufactured home registration. It costs $10 per home, is valid 14 days and is issued only after taxes and registration are paid. Moving without one is a Class C misdemeanor. Homes entering Alabama are exempt.
Certified installer and decal
The Alabama Manufactured Housing Commission requires every manufactured home in Alabama to be installed by an AMHC certified installer, who places a state decal on the home before installation begins. Our installers are certified.
Escorts for wide homes
Under Ala. Admin. Code 450-3-1-.05, loads 12 to 14 feet wide need one escort, in front on two-lane roads and behind on multi-lane roads. Loads wider than 14 feet need escorts in front and behind on every road.
Wind Zone II on the coast
Under 24 CFR 3280.305, Mobile and Baldwin counties are in HUD’s Wind Zone II. A home placed there must be built for that zone, so we check its data plate before we quote.
Alabama paperwork
Who Does What in an Alabama Move
In Alabama, the tax step comes first. Here’s the split.
1. Pay the taxes
Pay the property tax and current registration on the home at your county office.
2. Move permit
The county issues the $10 move permit once taxes are paid. We can get it as your mover.
3. We get the route permits
ALDOT oversize permits and escorts, plus a wind zone check for coastal moves.
4. Certified setup
Our AMHC certified installers set the home and place the state decal.

Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Move a Mobile Home in Alabama?
Most of our moves cost between $2,000 and $15,000. For an Alabama move, the price mostly depends on:
- Home size: double- and triple-wides need more trucks and a split and rejoin.
- Distance: across the county costs less than Huntsville to Mobile, or out of state.
- Permits and escorts: the county move permit, ALDOT permits and escorts for wider homes.
- Site access: hills up north, soft ground on the coast and tight parks.
- Setup scope: blocking, leveling, anchoring, utilities and skirting.
