Housing term
Moveable Structure(MS)
Moveable Structures (MS) are dwellings which are built on wheels or skates and can be relocated from one location to another. They are typically used in the United Kingdom for temporary housing needs, such as for homeless individuals, or for permanent housing, such as for those who have difficulty accessing traditional housing options. MS are typically constructed from steel or timber frames, and can be outfitted with basic amenities such as a kitchen, a living area, and a bathroom. The purpose of MS is to provide a temporary or permanent housing solution for those who struggle to access more traditional housing options. The scope of MS varies greatly depending on the needs of the individual, with some units featuring more luxurious amenities such as a hot tub, while others are more basic. MS can also be used to provide short-term housing for students, those going through a transition period, or those who are temporarily displaced.
