Mobile Home Movers Serving All of Texas
Texas is a full day’s drive wide and we work every mile of it. Local crews, one licensed and insured company, and a route plan built before the home ever comes off its blocks.
Texas is a full day’s drive wide, and we move homes across every mile of it. Our crews work the Gulf Coast from Beaumont down through Houston, the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, the I-35 run through Waco, Austin and San Antonio, the Permian Basin around Midland and Odessa, and the High Plains past Lubbock and Amarillo. Single-wide, double-wide, triple-wide, park model, or an entire community relocation — the job starts with the route and it ends with a home sitting dead level on solid footings.
Local Texas Crews, One National Company
Nobody dispatches a Texas job from Ohio. Green Mobile Home Transport keeps its head office at 2951 Owl Creek Rd in Lucasville, Ohio, but the people who show up at your site are our own agents and crews who live in Texas. The crew that pulls a home out of a park in Pasadena is not the crew working Abilene, and that is on purpose — the distance from the Piney Woods to the Trans-Pecos is longer than most states are wide. Our Texas people already know which farm-to-market roads carry low crossings, which parks have interior turns a 16-foot box will not make, and how the permit office reads a route request. You still deal with one licensed, insured company and one file from first email to final tie-down.
- Two agencies, one file — TxDMV for the move, TDHCA for the install; we handle both
- Clay-country footings — wider bearing on Blackland Prairie sites along I-35
- Coastal wind zone checked — Zone II data plate verified before a Gulf Coast set
- Long-haul routing — fuel, daylight and escorts planned for 600-mile Texas legs
- Crews who live here — our agents, not a broker handing you off to a stranger
Hauling Across Texas
Distance is the first problem in Texas, and it never stops being the problem. Houston to Amarillo runs the better part of 600 miles up I-45 and US-287, and daylight, fuel and lodging all have to be planned around it. I-10 carries the long western haul through Junction and Fort Stockton into El Paso with very little in between. I-20 serves Midland, Odessa and the Big Country. I-35 is the spine from Laredo up through San Antonio, Austin, Waco and the Metroplex, and it is also the most congested oversize corridor in the state. In the Valley, US-83 and I-69C reach Harlingen, McAllen and Brownsville. Each of those corridors has its own bridge list, its own construction pattern, and its own escort habit.
Main corridors we run in TX: I-35, I-10, I-45, I-20, I-27, US-287 and US-83.

Texas Permits & Oversize-Load Compliance
Texas splits this work between two agencies. Movement permits come from the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles Motor Carrier Division, through its Oversize/Overweight Permits office and the TxPROS routing system. A manufactured home moves on a single-trip permit tied to one origin, one destination and a stated travel window, and a double-wide needs a permit for each half moving on its own axles. TxDMV checks the carrier’s USDOT number against the federal system before it issues. Installation is a separate track: the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs Manufactured Housing Division licenses installers and requires a Notice of Installation to be filed after the set. Metro curfews, escort requirements and daylight-only travel all attach to the approved route. We file it, we route it, we keep the paper.
Permit handling is part of the job, not an extra. See what our permit assistance service covers before your TX move.
Setting, Leveling & Anchoring in Texas
Wind zone comes first. The Gulf Coast counties — Galveston, Brazoria, Jefferson, Nueces, Cameron and their neighbors — sit in HUD Wind Zone II, and Texas is blunt about the rule: a home may not be installed in a wind zone it was not engineered for. We read the data plate before the home moves. Inland Texas is Wind Zone I. Soil is the second problem, and the one that comes back. The Blackland Prairie clays that follow I-35 from north of Dallas through Waco, Austin and San Antonio swell in a wet spring and shrink hard through an August drought, so piers walk and doors stop latching. Those sites get wider footings and a re-level on the calendar. Frost depth is shallow here, so moisture drives the design, not freeze.
When to Schedule Your Texas Move
October through April is the window most Texas crews want. Summer moves fine but it punishes people and tires, and the coast carries hurricane exposure from June into November that can shut a route for days. Spring brings hail and severe weather from the Metroplex north into Oklahoma. Winter is usually easy except for the two or three ice events a year that close I-20, I-40 and the Panhandle outright. We watch the forecast and we would rather set you a day late than fight a crosswind.

Texas Mobile Home Moving FAQs
Yes. When each half moves on its own set of axles, each half needs its own single-trip manufactured housing permit from TxDMV. That permit names one origin, one destination and a set travel window. We file both, keep the routes matched so the halves arrive in order, and carry copies in each cab.
The Manufactured Housing Division of the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs. Installers are licensed and bonded through TDHCA, and a Notice of Installation is filed with the Department after the home is set so the work can be inspected. Ask any Texas mover to show you that license before work starts.
Only if the home was built for the coastal wind zone. Gulf Coast counties such as Galveston, Nueces and Cameron are HUD Wind Zone II, and a Zone I home cannot legally be installed there. The answer is on the data plate inside the home. We check it during the site survey, before anything gets scheduled.
Almost always the soil. The Blackland Prairie clays along the I-35 corridor swell with rain and shrink through drought, which moves piers up and down through the year. It is normal here. The fix is proper footing size at set, good drainage away from the home, and a re-level on a schedule instead of after the doors stick.
Give us a few weeks when you can. Permit routing, escort scheduling and park approvals all take time, and the good weather months from October through April are the busiest. Emergency and short-notice moves are possible, but the more lead time we have, the better the route and the price look.
