Mobile and modular homes are delivered to the site by specialized transport vehicles operated by licensed carriers.
The method of transport depends primarily on the size, weight, and structural configuration of the building.
Common transport equipment includes:
-
tractor-trailers (semi-trucks)

low-bed trailers

extended flatbed trucks
📏 Size regulations for road transport in Hungary
Transport width | Permit requirement |
---|---|
up to 2.55 m | no permit required |
up to 2.60 m | no permit required (for insulated vehicles) |
2.60–3.00 m | simple transport permit required |
3.00–3.50 m | permit + escort vehicle required |
above 3.50 m | detailed route permit + police escort often required |
💡 Good to know:
If the transport exceeds 2.55 meters in width, it is classified as oversized and requires official approval.
This may involve additional costs such as:
-
Route permit fees
-
Escort vehicle rental
-
Temporary traffic control measures (e.g. detours, closures)
🗺️ When is a detailed route plan required?
You will need a custom route permit issued by Hungarian Public Roads (Magyar Közút Nonprofit Zrt.) if:
-
The cargo exceeds 3.50 m in width, or
-
The weight significantly exceeds legal road limits
During the approval process, authorities assess:
-
Road surface condition and load capacity
-
Bridges, underpasses, width/height limitations
-
Traffic safety risks
-
Need for escort vehicles or police supervision
-
Environmental and weather conditions
🌍 Can mobile homes be transported internationally?

🏗️ What does the delivery look like on-site?
After transport, the home is usually lifted by crane and placed directly onto its prepared foundation— next to the building site, on stable, level ground where the crane can safely operate.
