A Trailer on Your Property
After Hurricane Isaias

If a tree came through the roof or water got in, and your home is not livable after Isaias, you can still stay on your own property. We deliver a furnished travel trailer to your driveway or yard, set it up, have it connected, and service it while the house is repaired.

Real beds, a full kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, and heat and air conditioning. When a carrier approves the trailer, we can bill the carrier directly. We have delivered, set up, and serviced trailers nationwide since 2004.

Stay on your own lot while your home is repaired

A trailer in the driveway or the yard keeps you at home: close to the repair work, your neighbors, and your things. Every size arrives furnished, with a kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, real beds, and heat and air conditioning, from a Couples layout that sleeps two to three up to a Large Family that sleeps eight to ten. The request form asks who is moving in, pets included, so the size fits everyone.

Whether a trailer can stay on your lot is decided by your city, or your county outside city limits, and by your HOA if you have one. Where it is allowed, the approval commonly runs with the building permit for the house and ends when the work is finished. Get that yes before delivery day. A trailer on your property while you rebuild walks through who decides and what we handle.

If insurance may pay for your housing

That depends on your policy and your adjuster. When a carrier approves the trailer, we can bill the carrier directly, so you are not fronting the cost. Our parent brand explains the claim side on 1st Choice Living’s Hurricane Isaias page. Once the placement is arranged, the trailer, delivery, and service are ours.

Already working with a temporary housing company?

We work with any temporary housing company. If one is handling your housing, ask them to place you with Temporary RV Living, or with our parent brand, 1st Choice Living, for a trailer on your own lot. They send us the placement, and we deliver, set up, and service the trailer.

Crew housing on job sites and remote work sites

Restoration, roofing, tree, utility, and response crews need somewhere to sleep on or near the job, including sites far from the nearest hotel. We deliver travel trailers to the site, or as close as the ground allows, and set up and connect them the same way we do in a driveway. A two-person crew fits one trailer. A full crew takes a cluster, and we build the layout to your head count and the ground available.

  • Workforce Bunkhouse: sleeps six or more per trailer, with a kitchen and a bathroom the crew shares
  • Worksite: two bedrooms for a superintendent, a foreman, or a small management team, sleeping two to four
  • One point of contact for the whole placement, and one invoice
  • Billed directly to the company, with the LOA, COI, and compliance paperwork handled
  • A full kitchen, heat and air conditioning, and real bedrooms in every trailer

In the request form, choose “I am arranging it for someone else,” then “Employer housing a crew” or “Contractor or restoration,” so the paperwork goes to the right desk. More on crew housing.

Delivery, setup, and utilities after the storm

The driver walks the site with you, or with the person you name, before anything is unhitched. The trailer is positioned, leveled, and blocked so it sits solid, and it is opened up and checked before the driver leaves. Site conditions are documented at setup and again at takedown, and scheduled service visits continue for the whole stay.

Water, sewer or septic, and electrical connections are completed by licensed, insured contractors from our preferred vendor network. You do not hire an electrician or a plumber.

What we look at for the spot: a route in that clears gates, branches, and tight corners, ground that is firm and close to level, and how far the trailer will sit from the water, sewer, and power it will use. Tell us on the call what the site has, and we confirm the details with you before the trailer rolls. More on delivery and setup.

Six sizes, and what comes with each

Four sizes are built for households, from the Couples to the Large Family. Two are built for job sites: the Worksite and the Workforce Bunkhouse. Photos and example floor plans are on sizes and floor plans, and the full list of what arrives in the trailer, and what you bring, is on what comes with the trailer.

A stackable washer and dryer, a housewares package from Temporary Housewares, and photos of the loss from LossMap are extras you can say yes to in the request form.

Documenting the property before cleanup

Our sister brand LossMap covers documenting a property from the air before tarps go on and debris comes off, on LossMap’s Hurricane Isaias page.

Frequently asked questions

Can I live in a travel trailer on my property while my home is repaired after Hurricane Isaias?

Usually, with permission from your city or county, and from your HOA if you have one. It is commonly approved as a temporary use tied to the building permit for the house. Once you have the go-ahead, we deliver, set up, and connect the trailer and service it for the whole stay.

Will my homeowners insurance pay for a trailer after Hurricane Isaias?

That depends on your policy and your adjuster. When a carrier approves the trailer, we can bill the carrier directly, so you are not fronting the cost. The claim side is explained by our parent brand, 1st Choice Living, on its Hurricane Isaias page.

A temporary housing company is handling my housing. Can I still get a trailer from you?

Yes. We work with any temporary housing company. Ask the company handling your housing to place you with Temporary RV Living, or with our parent brand, 1st Choice Living. They send us the placement, and we deliver, set up, and service the trailer on your lot.

Who connects the water, sewer, and power?

Licensed, insured contractors from our preferred vendor network complete the water, sewer or septic, and electrical connections as part of setup. We look at how far the trailer will sit from the water, sewer, and power it will use, and confirm the site with you on the call before the trailer rolls.

Do you deliver to Alabama, Mississippi, and the Florida Panhandle?

We deliver, set up, and service trailers nationwide, and have since 2004. Put the address in the request form and we confirm the site with you on the call. Plan a delivery into an evacuated area only once local officials say it is safe to return.

Can you put travel trailers on a job site or remote work site for Hurricane Isaias response crews?

Yes. We deliver to the site, or as close as the ground allows, and set up and connect the same way we do in a driveway. A crew can take one trailer or a multi-unit cluster, and the Workforce Bunkhouse sleeps six or more per trailer. We size the layout to your head count and the ground available.

How does billing work for a restoration, roofing, or utility company?

One point of contact runs the placement and it all lands on one invoice, billed directly to the company. We handle the LOA, COI, and compliance paperwork your office or your client requires, so nobody on the crew pays out of pocket for a place to sleep.
