An old mobile home can sit empty until the roof leaks and the floor goes soft. Sanders Contracting handles mobile home demolition around Murphy and across the tri-state area. We tear down single wides and double wides with the excavator and haul the debris off in our dump truck. The skirting, the steps, the old block piers and the pad get cleaned up too.
As a demolition contractor in Murphy, we get a lot of calls for mobile homes. We run a large excavator and a small one, so the machine fits the lot. Call or text (828) 342-1467, and we look at the job and put the quote in writing.

A home in sound shape may be worth selling or moving to another lot. Moving a home whole is work for a mobile home mover. Our side of the job is the tear down and the haul off.
To move a mobile home off its lot, state law calls for a tax permit from the county tax collector. The collector issues it once the taxes the owner owes are paid. Call the tax office before a tear down too, because the home is still on the county's tax books.
A home with rotten floors or a roof caving in is past moving. That home comes down where it sits, and the debris leaves in the dump truck.
In everyday talk, mobile home and manufactured home mean the same kind of house. A single wide is one section built on a chassis. North Carolina law describes a double wide as two or more sections, each on its own chassis, joined on site.
Manufactured home demolition runs the same way for both. The excavator pulls the home apart where it sits and loads the dump truck. The chassis under each section goes out with the rest. Then we pull the leftover block piers and clean up the pad.
A shed or carport beside the home can go too, as part of our building demolition work. Put it on the list when we look at the job.
When the home is gone, the lot is ready for a new home or a new pad. Grading and a level pad for the next home fall under our house pad and grading work. If the old home sat on a concrete slab, tell us whether it stays. If it goes, our slab removal work breaks it out and hauls it off.
In Cherokee County, the permit to set a manufactured home asks for written approval of the septic and well. That comes from county Environmental Health, or from the town or service district for a water and sewer hookup. Lots near a river or a creek can also fall under floodplain or watershed rules. The county building office asks for a call before you apply on those lots.
