I'd kinda like to put up a 40x60 pole building, with probably 10' side walls to house my tractors, trailers, etc. Just a cold storage shed. I now have adequate shop space but not enough storage. My tractors and trailer have to winter at my brother's place and I'm never sure when that arrangement may come to an end. I know there are many options, but I figure just one sliding door, a service door, a few light bulbs, no overhangs, standard white steel, and crush rock floor. What would a basic shed like this cost if I constructed it myself? Is dismantling and reconstructing a used shed an option, assuming I could find one very cheap? Thanks, Glenn F.

Glenn, I just had one put up 3 years ago 40x60x12 with 60x15 (4) bay shed on one side erected for 12 1/2 thousand. Unpainted 26 ga. galvanized. Purchased from BCI in Oklahoma who also sent erectors. Barn erectors work by the job not the hour.
I don't think you want to tackle this for what they charge for erection. They are professional and will be done in 2 days on your level site. This get not include any wiring which I did myself but did include (1) 36" door and (1) rolling 10' door. In retrospect I wish I had gotten (2) rolling doors and I think for the minor added cost you'll regret it if you don't.
Good luck whatever you decide.

Have you considered limestone (type spread on field) rather than rock for the shed floor ? Cheaper, easier to level & compacks with water.
Just an idea.

A few years ago, I had a 42' X 60' X 14' pole building put up by a local contractor for $25,000.00. It has 3 12'X 14' sliding doors and a standard entrance door, gutters, plus 2' soffits on front and back. Roof has a 4" on 12" pitch. Floor is crusher run (gravel and dust) and I ran a 100 amp sub panel from my other pole building (my shop) for electic power (recepticles and lights) which I wired myself for probably around another $200.00. Could have done the whole thing myself, probably saved a few bucks but I'd probably still be working on it. This way it was done from start to finish in about three weeks. Never been sorry for doing it the way I did. Good luck!

Two years ago I had a 40'X60'X12' built with concrete floors, 4 large garage doors, a 36" service door, 3 windows and a large skylight down the middle for lighting. I also got insulation and gutters/downspouts all for $25,000 from a local contractor. They did excellent work and were done in about 2 days (they hustled all day long for those days). If I had tried to build it the job wouldn't have been done as well and I would still be working on it. It's the best money I ever spent. I would check around thoroughly before starting the project.

I built a 40 x 80 last year for about $35000. It did have a few extras. Like a 1� overhang all around and a 6/12 pitch with 14� sides and one 12 x 12 overhead and a service door. Also laminated plastic sleeved posts. I did all the excavation work myself (there was a lot since it was built on a side hill during the wettest summer ever!) and half or better of the construction.

I'm thinking 64' long as my trusses would likely be spaced 8'. I live in Green Bay, WI. Sheds around here are generally 3-12 roof pitch. Glenn F.

The last building that we had built was last year. A 50 x 36 x 12, with fill, 100 amp electrical system came to just under $7 / sq. ft. The building is just the basic "lumberyard" model, no frills.
I'm sure by now, steel / lumber prices have increased the cost.
