A STORAGE SHED

Solving a Pressing problem:

I had a pickup I only used a few times a year. When I figured up the cost of taxes insurance and everything, I thought that’s quite a bit of money. My car has a trailer hitch and I have a trailer. I can use that to haul things.

I don’t have to tag the trailer and it is not taxed. I will sell the pickup and save some money.

The problem was I had a number of things in the pickup that I really wanted to keep. They were pretty bulky, and I didn’t know where I was going to store them. I had quite a few other things I needed to gather up and organize in one place.

Selling the pickup brought everything to a head. I really needed more storage space.

When I looked into public storage units, a 5 x 5, which isn’t as big as a large closet, was over $400 a year. A 10 x 15 was over $1,100 a year. If I kept the storage unit for 10 years, it would cost me well over $11,000.

Renting a storage unit would not only cost me a chunk of money, every time I needed something I would have to hook up the trailer and make a trip to get it. Having to make a special trip every time you needed something would be a real pain.

I decided to look into buying a storage shed.

I went down to the lumberyard and looked at sheds. I didn’t see any that I liked and I thought boy are they proud of them. That’s way too much money. I wonder if it’s a lot cheaper if I build it myself?

I had never built a shed before. I wondered if it was difficult? Is a build it yourself enough cheaper to make it worthwhile?

I did quite a bit of research.

There are so many different plans and websites it can really be confusing. All of them claiming they are the best. I know that’s not true. Each and every one of them cannot be the best.

It was really easy to understand why people are confused.

After studying the different plans, I finally bought a set of shed plans.

I took the detailed material list to the lumberyard had them price it out. I discovered that building it yourself was a whole lot cheaper.

I bought the materials and picked a Saturday to start building the shed.

Was I ever lucky.

Thanks to the detailed material list, I knew the shed was affordable before I started building it. I knew it fit my budget.

Because of the detailed material list, I had everything I needed when I started building the shed. I didn’t have to stop and make a trip to the lumberyard to get something I had forgotten.

As I was building the shed, I was really surprised by how fast it was going. Even my neighbors commented on how fast I built the shed.

Comprehensive step-by-step instructions and detailed illustrations made a huge difference. The  plans also have over 150 videos designed to make you successful.

As I got more and more of the shed built, the more my worries disappeared.

I realized the worries I had about building the shed were completely wrong.

That’s why I felt I was really lucky, the plans I found are designed by professionals to make people like us successful.

One thing I discovered after building the shed was, it really made life easier. When you are entertaining friends in your backyard, having your barbecue grill lawn chairs and everything stored right there makes it really nice.

I have my lawn and gardening tools organized and one place. When I am working on my yard or in my garden and I see something I need to do. I have what I need right there, it’s handy. I don’t have to stop and make a trip to get it.

I’m retired. Things that I used to do in one day 20 or 30 years ago, now take me close to a week. Having that storage shed really helps a lot. I have some comfortable lawn chairs in it. When I am working in my yard or garden and I need to take a break. I can take a break right there.

I saved myself a trip to and from the house.

Some helpful tips you might consider:

Check to see if you need a permit. A lot of times you don’t need a permit for small sheds but check to make sure.

Check to see if there are any restrictions on where you can build a shed. Sometimes there are restrictions on how close you can build to a property line or an existing structure.

You don’t want to build a shed where rainwater stands after a rain.

When you need something from your shed, you want to be able to walk out of your back door and have your shed where it is convenient, but not in your way for other activities.

Building the shed removed a major irritation from my life. More times than I like to think about, I would be hunting for something and find myself thinking, now where did I put that? I was mentally kicking myself for not being better organized.

After building the shed, I was able to gather a lot of stuff up and organize it in one place.

Now when I need something I knew where it was at and I can find it. I have noticed that I’m a lot calmer since I removed that constant irritation from my life.

That’s a benefit I never thought about when I built the shed, but that’s a benefit that really helped me have a better life.

There are a number of different ways building a shed improved my life.

When I look back and compare my life before and after I built the shed, I am really glad I built it.

I really benefited by building the shed and saved a husky chunk of money to boot.

P S – If I hadn’t built the shed, I would find myself wandering around, mentally kicking myself while I was
trying to find something.

As you hunt for something, the irritation from mentally kicking yourself for not being better organized keeps
getting worse.

You’re always accumulating things. If you don’t build a shed your storage problem will get worse.

Your life will be worse instead of better.

The longer you put off building a shed, the more it will cost.
