Mobile home movers in Washington

Any person moving a mobile home or park model trailer on public highways must obtain a special permit from the Department of Transportation and local authorities and pay the prescribed fee. For mobile homes constructed before June 15, 1976, and already in the state, the applicant also needs a Labor & Industries fire-safety certification, or a signed owner affidavit in the commerce-prescribed form that the owner is moving the home for continued occupation or use, or title plus an affidavit that the home is going to a wrecking yard for disposal. A special permit for a home that is assessed for property taxes is not valid until the county treasurer of the county where the home is located endorses or attaches a certificate that all property taxes that are a lien or that are delinquent, or both, have been satisfied, and the home must display an easily recognizable decal. Endorsement, certification, and the decal are not required when a home is entering the state, moving from a manufacturer or distributor to a retail outlet or the purchaser, moving between retail outlets, or in stated destruction/abandonment situations. It is the owner's or agent's responsibility to obtain the endorsement and decal before the home is moved.
