Relocating a mobile home is a big undertaking, especially in a busy metropolitan area like Atlanta, Georgia.

Step 2: Understand Local Regulations and Permits

Before moving, you must secure the proper mobile home moving permits for your city or county. This includes:

• County transportation permits
• Oversize load permits for highways
• Local zoning compliance

Step 3: Prepare the Home for Transport

Your movers will handle most of this, but here’s what typically needs to be done:

• Disconnect utilities (water, electricity, sewer)
• Remove skirting and exterior additions (porches, decks, awnings)
• Secure all windows and doors
• For double wides: separate the two sections and seal them for travel

This preparation ensures safe transport through Atlanta traffic and Georgia highways.

Step 4: Transport the Mobile Home

Your movers will load your home onto specialized trailers and transport it to its new location.

• Short-distance moves (within Atlanta or Fulton County) can often be completed in a day.
• Long-distance moves (to places like Macon, Savannah, or Augusta) may require multiple days and overnight staging.

Step 5: Setup and Leveling at the New Site

Once at the destination, movers will:

• Block and level the home
• Reconnect utilities
• Install skirting if requested
• Secure the home according to local building codes

This ensures your home is ready for immediate occupancy.

Step 6: Final Inspections

Most counties in Georgia require a final inspection before you can legally occupy your mobile home.
Professional movers like Clayton Mobile Home Movers coordinate with local inspectors to expedite this process.

Tips for a Smooth Mobile Home Move in Atlanta

• Book early – Georgia movers are often booked 30–45 days in advance.
• Have your title ready – Movers cannot transport your home without proof of ownership.
• Pay any outstanding lot rent or taxes – County clerks will block permit approval if these aren’t cleared.
• Choose a mover with statewide coverage – This ensures help is available if plans change.
