A 8×8 shed covers about 64 sq ft and is one of the small-class buildings our Providence 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 Providence 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.
