Whether you need a basic run-in loafing shed, a safe horse shelter, a dry place to help your cows calve, or a place to store your tack, these tough, HEAVY-DUTY, all-steel buildings should last you a lifetime.  STURDI-BILT Steel-Framed Shelters provide permanent housing for horses, cows, goats, sheep, or other livestock.  Built with stout square tubular frames, they cannot be chewed & will not rot.

A 12’x18’ run-in shed is usually adequate for three average-sized horses (about 15 hands) that will share their space without fighting. However, as any horse owner knows, horses have a definite “pecking order,” with some members of the herd being more dominant than others.

A few suggestions:

Sturdi-Bilt offers various grades of storage containers for rent or sale, tailored to your budget and specific needs.  We offer a choice of 20′ and 40′ lengths, with doors available in one or both ends, in standard height and high cube configurations. Need walk-in doors and windows?  No sweat!  Our staff will customize it to suit your needs.

Due to our specialized delivery equipment, the space required for delivery of your storage container is very minimal.  The width requirement is approximately 10′.  The length requirement is 6′ on each end of the storage unit.  For example, a 20′ storage container will require only 32′ of length, due to the maneuverability of our Mule. 

“Rent-to-Own” as an alternative to mini-storage.

For those needing storage and on a tight budget.

With a storage container from Sturdi-Bilt, you can have your own storage facility placed conveniently in your backyard and own it after 12, 24, or 36 monthly rental payments.  Why rent a storage unit miles away when you could have your storage right in your own yard?
