Site access

Gate width, slope, soft ground, and overhead lines at both ends. Idaho crews price extra time for mountain passes and irrigation-canal bridge crossings.

Foundation and blocking

Re-leveling on new blocks or a gravel pad is usually included; a new concrete pad is not.

Disassembly

Sheds wider than the legal limit may need the roof removed or be moved in sections, which adds labor.

Scheduling

Spring runoff softens canal-side approaches; summer and fall are best

Backhaul luck

Haulers already running near Boise bid lower to fill empty miles — posting early exposes your job to more of them.

Number of bids

Comparing three or more bids on the same job is the most reliable way to bring the price down.
