In Rhode Island a manufactured home moved on public roads needs an oversize or over-dimensional permit from the state permit office, usually obtained by the mover. We did not find a statewide tax-clearance or county moving-permit statute on the official sources checked; many counties still expect property taxes to be current, so ask the county tax office before moving day.
A manufactured or mobile home is typically over legal size, so moving one on Rhode Island roads requires an oversize, over-width, or over-dimensional permit from the state permit office linked below, usually bought by the mover. Check that office for current escort, width, and travel-time rules; we only list those limits when we have confirmed them on an official page.
