Do Park Model trailers have a HUD plate?
Saturday, November 17, 2018
Most park models are built under the American National Standards Institute’s ANSI Code for Park Models, except that the 400 square foot maximum is allowed to be raised to 500 square feet, in Florida only, when the unit is built to HUD standards for RV park models. These larger Florida park models will have a HUD data plate and HUD tag. The smaller units will have an ANSI tag. To learn more, see our blog post What is a Park Model mobile home?
