It significantly reduces the cost to consumers by eliminating the built-in cost to the home for axle wheel assemblies, eliminates the need for a flag car when returning the carrier to the factory, and requires the use of only a pick-up truck to return the carrier to the factory. In one embodiment, provisions can be made to easily remove the carrier from under the home with a hitch connection at either end.
