Manufactured and Modular Home Services

A new home does not always arrive at its final location the same way a traditional house does. Manufactured and modular homes are built with transportation and placement in mind, but each structure can have different requirements once it reaches the property.

M & K Mobile Home Movers & Setup has worked with these types of homes since 1992. From our home base in Pacolet, SC, we help customers throughout South Carolina coordinate the moving and placement of their homes with practical, experienced service.

Understanding the Difference

Manufactured and modular homes may look similar from a distance, but they are not necessarily handled in the same way.


Manufactured homes are constructed in a factory and transported to the property, where they are positioned and prepared for occupancy. Modular homes are also factory-built but are assembled in sections designed for placement at the final site. Prefabricated structures can include components or sections manufactured away from the property and transported for installation.


Understanding what type of structure you have is an important first step when planning transportation and site work.

Homes and Structures We Work With

M & K provides services for a range of manufactured and factory-built structures, including:

  • Manufactured Homes
  • Modular Homes
  • Single-Wide Homes
  • Double-Wide Homes

The property itself can also affect the project. Access, ground conditions, available space, and the intended placement of the structure should all be considered before work begins.

Preparing for Placement

Before a structure arrives, customers may need to coordinate site preparation and other project requirements. Depending on the property and home, this may involve grading, footers, anchoring or other setup work.

M & K can discuss the services associated with your project and provide a free quote. We come to you and serve communities throughout the Upstate and surrounding areas of South Carolina.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can You Help Prepare the Property Before the Home Arrives?

    Depending on the project, related services may include grading, footers, anchoring, and re-leveling.

  • What Should I Have Ready Before Requesting a Quote?

    Helpful information includes the type and size of the home, current and new locations, property access, and any known site requirements.

  • Who Is Responsible for Permits?

    For new homes, the manufacturer handles permitting. For existing homes, the customer is responsible for obtaining required county permits. Requirements can vary, so customers should confirm current requirements with their county or local authority.
