California permit rulesLegal limits are 8'6" wide and 14' tall, enforced by the Caltrans Transportation Permits. A 8×8 at 8 ft wide clears the width limit without a permit.

A 8×8 shed covers about 64 sq ft and is one of the small-class buildings our Irvine network handles most often. Compact garden shed, easy to move locally. 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 Irvine are access, distance, and permits. Access means gate width, fence lines, slope, and overhead utility drops — a 8-ft-wide building needs roughly 10 ft of clear opening to get through comfortably. Distance is straightforward mileage from pickup to drop. Permits depend on California rules above: this size normally doesn't need one, which is part of why 8×8 moves stay at the lower end of the range.
