For a move using Huntsville’s Structure Move Permit process, the city asks for a route survey before submission, including heights at road crossings and traffic signals. The form also distinguishes the structure’s height from its maximum height during transport.
Survey before applying
The route survey needs road-crossing and signal heights before the application is submitted.
Measure the transported height
Standing height and the maximum height during transport are different application inputs.
Measure the load the city will review
The Huntsville structure move application asks for width, length, structure height and maximum height during the move. Have the hauler establish the transport configuration and arrange the required survey; a home’s standing dimensions alone may not describe the load’s clearance needs.
The destination can be a storage site
The application asks about the new location or storage location and whether zoning has approved it. Identify the actual destination in the request, including any proposed interim storage, rather than leave that decision until departure.

Share the proposed Huntsville move
Send the home size, section count and both addresses for a hauling inquiry. Ask the carrier to confirm the applicable city process and who will arrange the route survey.
Describe the street-by-street movement
Along with the proposed route and move times, the form asks how long the structure will be on each street, avenue or alley. It also asks whether state roads are involved and requests an ALDOT permit number when they are. Have the transporter coordinate those details with the relevant authorities.
Use the Structure Move Permit link in the Huntsville Alabama permit directory to reach the current application. Confirm its applicability to your specific manufactured-home move before preparing the submission; this form is not itself an approved route.
