hey guys Charlotte's here from
Appalachian DIY and today we're gonna be
showing you how to move an outdoor shed
[Music]
so this is a shed that we actually
rehabbed it was kind of falling apart a
little bit and we fixed it up if you
want to see that video check it out
right here but today we need to move
this out of my driveway and up to where
it needs to be so I'm gonna show you
guys how to prep your shed to get it
ready to be moved without breaking in
her part the first thing that we're
going to do is make some runners for the
back of the shed these are gonna carry
all of the load we're just going to cut
these to a 45-degree angle on one side
what we're gonna do with these runners
is we're gonna put them and nail them
underneath our floor joist here so we're
gonna flush this up even with the
outside and we're gonna have about an
inch or two hanging out the back this is
where all of our load and all the
dragging is going to occur on the back
of our shed and we don't want to have
this rear plate just pop right off we
really need to protect that we're going
to put about three nails here on the
side and about two in the back and all
of our dragging and our weight of our
shed is gonna be on this skid plate and
on this runner and that's how we're
going to drag it and it should help
protect our bottom of our floor and help
this rear board from kicking out and
peeling off
[Music]

so we need some place that we can anchor
on to the shed width and be able to pull
it around so I took this block and we're
gonna take it and screw it to the side
of our floor joist we're gonna put two
screws up front here into the front
plate and a couple in the back go ahead
and drill a hole out through here and in
through our floor joists that way we can
put a metal rod or pin in through here
and that's gonna give us a place where
we can put chain around and pull this
around this block is gonna help stiffen
this front end up it's gonna help if we
turn the tractor and move and do turns
it's gonna help from ripping this board
out from this front plate here so this
is going to help stiffen it up and it's
also going to give more surface area for
this pin to be pulled against and we
don't rip and tear this port apart okay
so now we can hook this up just take
your chain loop it around the top of
your pin on the outside and then up
underneath loop it up the round also
pull your chain tight and then you can
hook it off so we have this chain going
up and around that height and we have it
going through a drawbar on my tractor
with the three-point hitch and that's
going to allow us to raise this up and
lift the front of the shed up if you
guys don't have this and you're going to
pull it with a four-wheeler or a tractor
lawn tractor or something make sure you
put an extra skin up here because this
is going to be plowing into some dirt so
you want some protection up here but
since we are able to lift this front end
up we only needed the skids in the back
so now we can just ease this off the
blocks set this shut down and then we
can be able to pull it around the yard

okay so we got our shed in where we
wanted it that's the easiest way I know
of how to move your shed around a yard
we had a pretty good slope and stuff and
everything was stable we kept our
pulling points low to the ground and it
worked out really well so I was really
happy with where we got it if you guys
