Pennsylvania paperwork before the move

I could not confirm a statewide Pennsylvania tax release or county moving form from published sources. Before you book a date, ask your county assessment office about taxes and your destination township about a placement permit.

  • Have your title ready
  • Ask the county about unpaid taxes
  • Ask the township or park about approval at the new site

See our permits guide.
