Do I need a permit for a park model home in Massachusetts? 

Yes. Park Model Homes are actually considered RVs in Massachusetts. While some states are updating their codes to include specific information relevant to Park Model Home, Massachusetts’ municipalities still treat them legally as RVs. This means that before living in, transporting, or having one of our Park Models installed, you must title and register it. This process often requires you to go in person. It is important that you always contact your local government about their specific requirements, especially in the case of Park Models, where recent amendments may have been made or are in the process of being instituted.

Park model homes follow RV regulations in Massachusetts, while modular homes are built according to HUD construction standards. Modular homes are often constructed on-site from various sections, whereas park model cabins are fully built off-site and can be transported anywhere due to their trailer foundation. Park models typically have a maximum size limit of 400 sq. ft., with anything exceeding this size no longer classified as a park model.

Level a Park Model Home by setting it on blocks or engineered wood. To continue to be called a Park Model, it must remain attached to its wheels, but it is recommended to rest the trailer itself on blocks or beams so that the wheels do not wear out or lose air and shift the home. Utilize the tongue (hitch) jack and scissor jacks to raise the Park Model and install the blocks underneath it. It is not wise to let the Park Model permanently rest on the jacks. Ideally, the gravel or concrete pad that it is installed on should be leveled already so that very little additional leveling needs to be done. 

Park Models should be set on a gravel or concrete pad. These should be installed as level as possible, ensuring as much resistance to settling as possible. This will help keep the Park Model level over long periods of time. Park Models cannot be removed from their trailer base and, therefore, cannot be installed on foundations such as basement, pit, and pier and beam foundations.

Yes. The appeal of Park Model Homes is steadily increasing and for valid reasons.

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
