Need metal RV cover, suggestions??

[Forks]

I’m looking into plans of pole buildings, going to see if a lumber package will be cheaper, and build it myself.

Rochester Lumber if you're close.

Problem with a pole bldg.is you need a permit which also involes the "storm water run off" Gestapo

Same with a metal canopy if its over 200 Sq. Feet in this county.

I don't think so because they are not  considered permanent

That's how John was selling them in Chehalis. No permit needed. Then the assessor started reporting them to the county and the building department went after something like 300 people that bought carports from him and didn't get a building permit. I had to get a permit for mine. This is in Lewis county.

I would be surprised if you could get lumber, roofing and concrete for less than the cost of a metal structure.

Tagging need to get a 30x10x12 or so. Those prices above seem super reasonable considering what I’ve been paying for a storage unit...

I doubt it would be less, but if your pouring cement the cost would be close to the same no matter which structure your putting it in. With a pole building you will have a way better building. If that's a consideration.

I guess that should not surprise me but it does disappoint me.
 I know most counties have " eyes in the sky" now so catching it wouldn't be random or neighbors turning you in.

I also used Cover Your Toys for my building, and it is a BIG ONE @ 45' X 30' and 14" at the sides.  Very happy with the product and after one RV and not being covered when not in use, I can say that we were not going to let that happen again.  I see one talking about what structure they should go with if moving in 7 to 10 years?  Well go with something or you may not have an RV left in 7 to 10 years with our weather out here on the Wet Side. 

Once you cross 14" high (it may be slightly less than that) you have to have the double legs so that added to my cost and also added the cantilever front just to give myself a little more wiggle room slinging that things around on my property, I have some big trees and landscaping that doesn't always make it easy.

Overall, very pleased with the outcome and all the extra room I have (I do someday plan on picking up a cargo trailer for maybe making a specialized off-road deep woods hunting rig).  For now plenty of room for the 5th wheel, slides out and even take in a camp fire under cover if we want... yea, we did do that this weekend.. hahaha....

I used metal mill in chehalis a couple years ago and bought a 30x12x12  for about 2k delivered.  I installed which was a pain in the butt,  I recommend whomever you use pay the extra for them to install..

I went with Randy at Cover your toys for my shelter, put the down money on it last week.  Expect it in about 4 to 6 weeks, cost was around 4,500 after taxes.  Randy seems like a good guy, likes phone calls and not texting, old fashion type guy.  We are getting a 35x18x13, covered on sunny side, one panel on the other side, open front and back.

Most jurisdictions require permits and engineering for the metal ones too.......I know Douglas county does.

Just ordered a 30x35 enclosed storage garage from Randy. It’ll fit our 30’ class A motorhome and 19’ Grady White. The building is about 20K, plus engineering, concrete, permit, taxes, electric will total about 35K.  Not bad!
