Normally the phrase free shed sends shivers down my spine. Where we live a social media post that offers something for free is more often than not someone looking to get rid something without having to have it hauled to the landfill.
Especially small building and trailers and RVs.
When my boss sent me a note that we had a contract to remove a shed that was deemed to be on the road allowance and suggested maybe I wanted to re-home it instead I was skeptical. Most shed can’t take the move and halfway through the attempt you end up with a shredded pile of scrap wood. Usually poorly build and full of rot.
I was quite surprised when I looked at it.
Kinda cute and quite solid. No rot except the front porch deck.
I’ve been planning a new shed for a year of so. I really want to get the canning supplies and camp gear and lawn chairs out of my tool shed. They’re in there because the tool shed dry and well vented. Damp and mildew is an issue here in many building and trailers. The tool shed in the only place other than in the house that we can store things safely from the weather.
Kelly has her own reasons for wanting a new shed. We currently have a metal shed in the back yard we use as a garden shed. Takes, goes, lawn mower, generators, fuel can. She hates it. Wants it gone. I hate it. Condensation rains off the ceiling.
So it is serendipitous that this clients shed is both available and as it turns out moveable. The first have of the project is done and it is now sitting in a flat pile in the yard waiting for me to build a new floor for it to sit on.
