A 10×16 shed covers about 160 sq ft and is one of the medium-class buildings our Washington network handles most often. Large enough for mowers, bikes, and tools. On a tilt trailer or shed mule, the whole building moves in one piece — no disassembly — provided there's a clear path at both the pickup and the drop site.

The three cost drivers in Washington are access, distance, and permits. Access means gate width, fence lines, slope, and overhead utility drops — a 10-ft-wide building needs roughly 12 ft of clear opening to get through comfortably. Distance is straightforward mileage from pickup to drop. Permits depend on District of Columbia rules above: this size does require one, and your hauler files it with the DDOT Public Space Permits before the move.
