Signs a Mobile Home Needs Removal

A mobile home sometimes referred to as a trailer home is a pre-assembled structure, manufactured in a factory to be used as a permanent or semi-permanent home. They can be left on one spot permanently as a home and they can also be moved around and relocated. They are constructed to have a chassis and wheel which enables them to be moved and in some cases they can be loaded onto a flat bed. Mobile homes are not particularly cheap, but when fitted to specifications they are very functional replacements for the traditional brick and mortar.

The lifespan of mobile homes ranges from 15-55 years depending on a lot of factors ranging from manufacturer, quality of materials used, maintenance, usage and how frequently they are moved.

Old mobile Homes may become health and safety hazards and they should not be allowed to be re-sold, re-occupied or remain within the mobile home park. An inspection is usually carried out to determine a mobile home’s safety. However, certain tell-tale signs, if observed, can readily indicate the need to remove or demolish a mobile home. Signs that a mobile home requires removal include but are not limited to the following:

Old, rundown looking (mobile homes can't be renovated)

Antiquated, brittle and frayed aluminum wiring (this is a fire hazard).

Major structural defects based on HUD building Code practices (mobile homes could fall apart during tremor or minor earthquakes).

Leaking/defective and irremediable plumbing systems (can be a health hazard).

Prolonged Abandonment (folks sometimes up and leave in the middle of night).

Legally condemned

Asbestos (identified as a health hazard).

Mold and post flood complications

Irremediable roofing and belly wraps (allows moisture to seep into insulation)

In some cases if the home is not in tatters it can still be towed away and disposed at an approved landfill. Interestingly, in most cases you find that condemned and run down mobile homes would need to undergo approved demolition on site before removal. While it will still cost some money to have this done, it is important to have a mobile home demolition done by approved professionals.

Mobile home demolition and removal is a specialized activity and this should be handled by service providers that know what they are doing. This is important because the demolition and subsequent removal should not be carried out in a way that affects other neighboring mobile homes (if in a park) or results in any environmental infringements.
