Manufactured home requirements:

  • Georgia rule: septic approval from county Environmental Health comes BEFORE the mobile home move-in permit (GA DPH rule 511-3-1) - call Environmental Health first, especially for a lot with an existing septic system
  • Existing septic system inspection typically required for mobile home relocation; Level 3 soil report required for all septic permits

Manufactured Home Notes

  • Manufactured homes must be Wind Zone II units because Glynn is a hurricane-prone coastal county
  • Installer must be licensed by both the State of Georgia and Glynn County
  • Dedicated county page on manufactured/mobile home permitting; permit applications go through the county's OpenGov portal

Georgia installations must follow the state Rules for Manufactured Homes (O.C.G.A. Title 8-2) using state-licensed installers; a state installation permit and insignia are required, plus the county permits above.
