Summerville requires a moving permit from the jurisdiction where the mobile home originates and proof of its decal number. Prepare both for the town’s mobile-home application. A home outside a mobile-home park also needs the plot plan specified by the town, and the permit cannot be issued without the signed owner-contractor contract or scope of work.
Origin permit plus decal proof
Prepare the moving permit from the origin jurisdiction and proof of the home's decal number.
Signed scope before issuance
Both owner and contractor must sign the uploaded contract or scope of work.
Parcel conditions change the file
Outside-park placement needs the specified plot plan; a flood-zone site needs the elevation certificate.
The Mobile Home section of the Summerville residential permit requirements sets out this document chain. It also requires a flood elevation certificate when the receiving site is in a flood zone. Check the actual parcel and park status before treating a previous move’s document list as complete.
Describe the paperwork travelling with the home
Share the pickup jurisdiction, receiving address and home size. Flag any missing origin permit, decal proof or receiving-site approval when discussing transport.
Match the signed scope to the work being arranged
- The town requires both the owner and contractor to sign the uploaded contract or scope.
- Keep the hauling agreement specific about transport responsibilities, and coordinate any receiving-site or installation work with the separately responsible parties.
- Supplying the origin documents does not itself authorize placement in Summerville.
