Tiny houses on wheels are legal in Washington state, but there are certain regulations and restrictions that apply depending on the location and intended use of the home. Here are some general guidelines:
Zoning laws: Zoning laws in Washington state vary by city and county. Some areas may allow tiny houses on wheels as accessory dwelling units (ADUs) on private property, while others may only permit them in RV parks or campgrounds. It is important to research local zoning laws and obtain any necessary permits or approvals before purchasing or building a tiny home on wheels.

These standards cover things like ceiling height, egress requirements, and fire safety.
