Transporting Tiny Homes
Tiny homes hit the market a few years ago and they have become popular not only for homeowners who want to downsize to save money each month but there are now cities across the United States who have used tiny homes to shelter the homeless. Tiny homes are typically 300 square feet or smaller and thanks to creative designers, those who own these homes don’t have to miss out on anything they would find in a large home. From a kitchen and dining area to laundry, living and bedroom and bath, tiny homes are the trend of the decade and it doesn’t look like their popularity will go down anytime soon.
Why Own a Tiny Home?
A trailered tiny home or even a non-moveable tiny home offers an economical way to live without the burden of a mortgage that you would be indebted to for the rest of your life. They also offer the homeowner an option to design everything inside and outside on their own to really make their home their own. Due to the smaller space, homeowners can save money on electricity and water each month. If the home if trailed and can be easily moved, it’s also easy to travel from one place to another and hook up at RV parks nationwide. What better way to see the world than from the comfort of your own home?
Inside a tiny home you’ll find all the comforts of a larger home.

Need to Move a Tiny Home?
While many tiny homes are built right on site, even more must be transported from one city or state to another and then set up on your property. On average, you can purchase an already built tiny home for prices ranging anywhere from as little as $10,000 to more than $30,000 depending on the size and amenities inside the home.
When you make an investment in a new home, whether it’s a large family home or a comfortable tiny home, you want to make sure it is fully protected from damage. This means having the proper homeowner’s insurance, but for a tiny home it also means you need to secure the right shipper to get the home delivered to you safely.

Can’t We Just Haul It?
As the owner of a tiny home, you can of course hitch the home to a trailer and haul it on your own. This is ideal for those who want to travel the country and live life on the road. Hauling your tiny home on your own however can be expensive and may not be something you want to do.
Since tiny homes are built to deliver to for set up on a property, the tires that are usually on them are not designed for long distance travel as your motor vehicle or even an RV’s tires are. Before hauling one, especially if you have more than 50 miles to haul it before setting it up on your land or if you plan to move from one place to another a few times each year, you will want to invest in a good set of tires that can accommodate the weight and the distance.
To haul a tiny home on your own, you will need to either rent a large truck or you will need to own a heavy-duty truck capable of handling the weight. Hauling your tiny home behind your own truck can place a lot of wear and tear on engine and tires of the truck and due to the heavier weight, you should be prepared to pay more for fuel to get it moved from one place to another.
