How To Move A Shed (From Wikihow)


How to Move a Shed


from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

Moving a garden shed is relatively simple operation. The smaller the shed is, the easier it becomes. If the shed is big and complex, so will be the moving.
There are various reasons that can cause moving the shed - drainage problems, too much/too little sunlight, new landscape design or moving to another home.

Steps


  1. Cover the shingles with a tarp especially if you are moving on a long distance. This will help the shed survive the transportation.
  2. Dig under the shed to access its corners and insert jacks under them.
  3. Lift the building two spans above the ground so you have enough space to place the moving structure
  4. Insert long pipes or boards under the shed and bind them all together.
  5. Tie a hook to the construction somewhere in the middle of one of the side walls and connect it to a car or truck.
  6. Install wheels at the bottom of the construction
  7. This way you can move the shed to the new location very easy
  8. Uninstall the moving mechanism and release the shed on the ground


Tips


  • If you are moving at a small distance you can just roll the shed over long pipes (no need of a car)
  • To make it all easier, take out all the stuff that you store in the shed and move it separately


Things You'll Need


  • A car or a truck
  • Long pipes or boards
  • A robust hook and a rope
