How to move a mobile home in Pennsylvania: permits, taxes and setup

In Pennsylvania the local tax collector must issue a $2 removal permit, only after all taxes levied on the home are paid, before the home may be moved out of the taxing district.

  1. Tax collector removal permit

    Each person in whose name a mobile home or manufactured home is assessed must be notified in writing that it is unlawful to remove the home from the taxing district without first obtaining removal permits from the local tax collector. The tax collector issues removal permits upon application and payment of a $2 fee and of all taxes levied and assessed on the home to be moved. Moving a home from the territorial limits of the taxing district without the permit is a summary offense, with a fine of $100 and costs or imprisonment for not more than 30 days, or both.
