Shed & Cabin Checklist

We’ve made a handy checklist of things to keep in mind for delivery and enjoyment of one of our Sheds or Cabins. By following these simple guidelines, your shed or cabin placement and use will be everything you dreamed of and more!

Before placement, take a few minutes to determine:

1. Is there at least 2-3 ft. clearance from all gates, fences and trees in the area surrounding the building’s placement?

2. Is the roadway from the main highway to your property wide enough to accommodate safe delivery without damage to the building?

3. Are all trees along secondary roads to your property clear of overhanging limbs by a minimum of 16 feet?

4. Is the unloading area free of obstructions?

5. Is the ground where the building is to be placed basically level?

After placement, you’ll want to transform the space to suit your needs. We suggest:

1. Make a list of all the shelving, furniture and/or tools you’ll want in the space and begin visualizing where each can go.

2. Go to the hardware store to purchase pegboard, shelving and utility hooks for your new work shed.

3. If this space will be used as a home office or studio, decorate with interesting rugs, tables and curtains to create a cozy, inviting workspace. (Pinterest has tons of ideas and inspiration, if you need a place to start!)

4. Need electricity in your building? We use solar panels in our office at the lot - ask us how you can, too!

5. When your Shed or Cabin is ready for you to make it part of your everyday life, invite friends and family over to see your new addition! One Small Sheds and Cabins create useful space to make the most of your existing property and its potential!
