Mobile Home Delivery and Setup

Mobile Home Site Preparation

Before the mobile home arrives, the new site must be thoroughly prepared. This includes:

• Clearing the Land: The area must be free of trees, debris, or any obstacles. The land is leveled to create a stable surface for the foundation.

• Grading and Drainage: The site is graded to allow proper water drainage, preventing future foundation or water damage issues. Poor drainage can lead to moisture problems that compromise the home's structure.

• Foundation Installation: Depending on local regulations and the type of mobile home (single-wide, double-wide, etc.), a foundation is prepared. This can include:

  • Concrete pads

  • Pier and beam foundations

  • Slabs or crawl spaces

• Utility Hookups: The installation of utility lines (electricity, water, gas, sewer/septic systems) must be completed and prepped for easy connection once the home is in place.

Mobile Home Relocation (Transporting the Mobile Home)

Once the site is prepared, the home is transported. This involves several key steps:

• Obtaining Permits: The necessary permits for transporting an oversized load are acquired from the relevant local or state authorities. Depending on the size of the home, additional support like escort vehicles may be required.

• Disassembly (for Multi-section Homes): If the home is a double-wide or triple-wide, the sections are separated for easier transport.

• Securing the Home: Windows, doors, and other parts of the home are secured to prevent damage during transit. Axles, wheels, and hitches are installed on the home if necessary.

• Transportation: The home is loaded onto specialized transport trailers. Licensed drivers carefully navigate the route, which may involve highways, rural roads, or narrow streets. The move is carefully planned to avoid obstacles or difficult terrain

Mobile Home Setup

After the mobile home reaches the site, it undergoes the final setup process:

• Positioning the Home: The home is positioned correctly on the foundation, with attention to alignment for multi-section homes. This is done according to the site plan, ensuring proper placement with utility hookups and access points.

• Reassembling the Home (for Multi-section Homes): For double-wide and triple-wide homes, the sections are joined back together. Special care is taken to align and seal the sections properly, making them appear seamless.

• Anchoring the Home: The home is anchored to the foundation using approved tie-down systems or straps to ensure stability and safety, especially against high winds and natural forces.

• Utility Connection: Professional technicians connect the home to all utilities, ensuring compliance with safety standards and local building codes. This includes connecting the home to power, water, sewer, and gas lines

Final Touches

Once the home is securely in place:

• Skirting Installation: Skirting is installed around the base of the home, giving it a finished appearance and protecting the underside from weather, pests, and drafts.

• Inspection and Testing: All systems in the home, including plumbing, electrical, heating, and cooling, are tested to ensure they are fully operational. Any potential issues that arose during transportation are addressed.

• Final Walkthrough: A final walkthrough is conducted with the homeowner to ensure that everything is in order, and that the home is ready for occupancy.
