Container Homes Moving Guide: Can You Relocate a Shipping Container Home?

You can move container homes. That is one of the best features nobody thinks about. The 10FT and 20FT models weigh 3,000 to 5,000 pounds. A standard flatbed with lift gate handles them. Move cost $500 to $1,500. Keep them on pier blocks instead of a concrete slab and you just unbolt and lift. The 40FT weighs about 9,000 pounds. Needs a heavy tow truck and oversized load permits. Move cost $1,500 to $3,500. The Double Story Villa is effectively permanent. Too tall and heavy. Moving it costs nearly as much as buying a new one. If you plan to move stick with a single story expandable on pier blocks. Email info@atvworldwide.com for relocation advice on your setup.
