Who can move a shed in my back yard. It is probably heavy as hell, it is 6x6x6 and is a Tuff Shed brand shed. I want to relocate it around the corner from where it is now.

Milk, Junior, this something your crews can do? I will need some sprinkler work done after it is moved Junior, so that job is yours for sure!

Can you post pics, specifically of the inside framework and it's location? Location due to seeing how easy or hard it is to get at. They'll need at least a bobcat.

I had my shed moved and can forward the information, I just have to find it.

Actually, it only needs to move about 15 feet probably. I thought there was a window closer to the edge on that other side, but there isn't.

If to base framining on that thing is strong that would be a good way to move it. Simple and cheap. You'd have to empty it for any move though.

Let me know if you want the information for the professional building mover. Just so you know, he rolls out there with a minimum of 2 trucks a bobcat and a trailer for moving stuff no matter how small the size. So you're looking at a minimum of 500-750 dollars for a pro.

Take care

Call Tuff Shed they will give you the number of a mover. I paid 200 to have some guys move my 10X12 in my last house. They basically jacked it up put 10" water pipe and rolled it to the new location using balance. They removed everything, leveled it, set it down, and then cleaned and reloaded it. Took them like an hour. Not sure if I would try with 2" PVC but 4" may work as well.

I lucked out and Tuff Sheds was next door putting one together, asked them if they could move it and sure enough, cash talks! 40 minutes later my shed was relocated!
