How much would it cost to move a mobile home this far?
Manufactured Homes August 29th, 201012 x 60 mobile home from about the 60s or 70s.
It has a metal roof that will have to be removed for the move.
If I decided to get this and move it the travel time would be a little less than four hours depending on traffic.
How much would the cost be to move this?

To move a single-wide mobile home, regardless of it’s size, usually runs about $1000. That is just the cost to move it, not break it down for moving, or setting it up at the new location. If you have to cross state lines, the price will go up, because more permits will be needed.
Mobile home movers can usually be located in the phone book, or local on-line directory. You can also check with local mobile home dealers, to ask who they use to move their homes. Some dealers could do this for you, as well as setting up the home at the new site.
Good Luck

Yup. $1K is about right to move it, and the roof doe NOT need to be removed.
You’ll pay about $1K to ready it, $75 to clean up the site, $250 to evacuate the A/C, if you have one, and about $3K to set it on the new site, plus the new skirting and refrigerant.
You do realize the house is only worth about $1500? Maybe less if it doesn’t survive.
