  • @hugo7 are you taking the shed apart to move it? I need to relocate my shed and can't figure out whether to drag it, or take it apart and rebuild it.

  • It's only one like this (7x3):

    So it's not heavy empty. Plan is for me and my OH to carry it, or if it's too heavy (which I doubt) I'll get one other person to help.

    Personally I'd work out how to "drag" it.

    Obvs it can be taken apart and rebuilt, but if it's been up for a while my guess is it will have swollen and warped in places so won't fit together as easily. Humans managed moving heavy stuff with sleds for '000s of years, so that would probably be my choice.

  • Hehe, I have exactly that shed I moved from one end of the garden down three steps into new (temporary) position on the patio on my own yesterday.

    I employed the wisdom of the ancients and some kids bubble mixture and a hose to create a slippery sliding track of 2x1 batons to slide it along. Had three bits, lift up the front of the shed, kick a well lubricated piece of timber under, go round the back hive it a big shove, collect the rear bit, go round the front and repeat. When I got the retaining wall at the end of the lawn i pulled out all three pieces, levered them under the front like skis, then shoved it up onto the wall, tipped it up, repositioned the three pieces as a"slide" and slid it down. Worked a treat!
