1 Del. Admin. Code § 201 § 6.0
Moving and Towing Contractors
Operative Text
It shall be the responsibility of the Tenant and/or Landlord to enter into a contract with a towing or moving company for purposes of relocating, removing and/or disposing of a manufactured home. The contractor must be duly licensed to engage in said business in Delaware. The Authority shall not be responsible for the performance of the contractor, or have any obligation to the contractor, financial or otherwise.
Under 1 Del. Admin. Code 201 § 6.0, when a manufactured home needs to be relocated, removed, or disposed of, the responsibility for hiring a towing or moving contractor falls on the tenant and/or landlord — not on the Authority. Any contractor engaged for this work must hold a valid Delaware license for that type of business. The Authority bears no financial or other obligation to the contractor and is not accountable for how the contractor performs the work.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under 1 Del. Admin. Code 201 § 6.0, landlords involved in the relocation, removal, or disposal of a manufactured home are generally expected to verify that any towing or moving company they engage holds a current Delaware business license for that work. Compliant operators typically document the contractual arrangement directly with the contractor and do not rely on the Authority to manage or guarantee the contractor's performance. Because the Authority assumes no financial obligation to the contractor, the contractual and financial relationship rests entirely with the landlord and/or tenant.

Section 6.0 of 1 Del. Admin. Code 201 makes clear that tenants may share responsibility — alongside or instead of the landlord — for contracting with a licensed Delaware towing or moving company when a manufactured home must be relocated, removed, or disposed of. Tenants should be aware that the Authority will not step in if a contractor fails to perform or disputes arise over payment, since the provision explicitly removes the Authority from any such obligation. Tenants who have questions about their specific rights or obligations in this process may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid service familiar with Delaware manufactured-housing law.
