How to move your shed, gazebo or summer house
There are two ways of moving your outbuilding, erected or dismantled.
An erected building will be quicker and easier to move, but would need specialist transport. It would need to be moved on a flat-bedded vehicle with HIAB facility.
Apart from cost, you would need to take into consideration two other factors
1. Would the building survive by being lifted in one piece
2. Is your Shed, Gazebo or Summerhouse close enough for vehicle access?
If the answer is no, to either of the above then it’s not possible to transport your outbuilding in one piece. It needs to be dismantled.
When dismantling make sure you have at least one helper, make sure you have all the correct tools before you start. It’s also advisable to have a box or plastic bags to keep all your nuts and bolts etc safe in one place.
Under normal circumstances you would start with the roof and work your way down.
If you cannot do this, we can organise assistance as part of our premium services.
Once dismantled ensure all doors, widows and air vents are secured. A good courier company (like us 
) will make sure all glass is covered to reduce the chances of breakage in transit. Remember glass isn’t covered by many insurers.
One last thing to consider, when booking your courier service make sure you have the measurements, and the dimensions of the largest parts.
To book the wrong size vehicle can cause all sorts of problems, too big and it’s going to be expensive and too small, well it’s not going to be delivered in one piece….
