House Moving Permit

Any construction or demolition in City of Vicksburg that involves the use or occupation of any right-of-way to transport a house or other structure from one place to another requires a house moving permit issued by the City of Vicksburg Building & Inspection Department prior to beginning work. House moving permits cost a base amount of $100.00 plus additional fees depending on the type and amount of work. Other costs and permits may be necessary if the City of Vicksburg employees or equipment are necessary to direct and detour traffic around your project.

These permits can be obtained from the Building & Inspections Department located at 819 South Street, between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Please allow a minimum of 2 days to process a completed permit application. There is no guarantee that you will receive a permit just because you submit an application. If you have any questions or would like more information about obtaining a permit, please call the Building & Inspections Department at (601) 634-4528.
