Needs a hand railing for the insurance man to approve.

I wonder how many attempts it took for him to back that trailer that close to the house.
Not something most could do.
He must be an LTL driver.

Probably long haul, most likely Swift or JB Hunt.

Great idea, just need a 3 ft draw bridge on the house and back it in. make it easier to get out of the truck to unhook.

With some of the trailer backing I'v seen over the years, it would be easier for the driver to move the house next to the trailer.

Our building codes might not require a railing if it's under a certain height!!

Use your Pole Barn Elevator for deck to ground access! Jim

perfect. i built my house in 2008 basically by myself. i did the exact same thing with my trailer. made the perfect work platform. saved a lot of time not going up and down the steps all the time. i may pull it back alongside the deck next time we have a party. best thing is you can move it out of the way so the tax man doesn't see it.

Hook your haywagon on the back of your trailer and back it up.
Then you can call yourself a LTL driver.
LOL!!!

All it takes is practice.

Trailer's probably better made than the mobile home. Never saw one that came close to stick built quality.

I lived in a house trailer during my college days and after I
got married.

House trailers are affordable housing for some people.

The issue is that in recent years they have been trying to price mobiles for damned near as much as a "real" stick built house. Also seen "modulars" that aren't really modulars, but actually glorified mobiles just built a bit better and priced absurdly.

Perhaps the busting housing bubble will bring things back to more sane pricing where a mobile with a perhaps a 20yr service life will actually be priced where they should be at around 1/4 that of a similar sf of conventional house.

Come visit. My mobile ('86 model w/ 2/6 wall studs, r-30 roof/r-19 walls, asphalt shingle roof) is built much better than most of the stick-built houses I've ever lived in.
