Morgan Shed Move, one man, one shed, done.

Moving a shed by myself, to a location 35 miles away. Started at 7am, loaded it, transported and unloaded by 2:30, same day. Tools needed was 8 cinder blocks, 1 furniture dolly, 2 ft section of a railroad tie, Hi-Lift jack, bottle jack, 1/2 rope 100ft, chain and a come along. Of coarse a trailer, pull vehicle and the will to getter done. This shed had a wood floor, 2x4 wall studs and rafters, tin walls and roof. No insulation of inner walls. I tried to just pick the floor by the door jam area up when I got there, to test the weight, that was a no go, didn't even budge it.

This just proves that when over thinking things it makes it seem much worse. This just do it attitude makes it seem easy!

Thanks for watching, hopefully I'll get the second shed move video done soon, it was 3 times the weight of this shed.

You’ve given me hope this coming weekend thank you.

[@thesouthernhuntsman8320]

Thanks for the tips, I have one to move and I don't have any friends that have volunteered to help.

Couldn't have done it without the funnie music !! 😀😊

[@Itdontmatter69]

Just the video I was looking for. I wanna move one but wasn’t sure how. I even have the same trailer

[@richardlong9109]

Just the info i needed looking to pull off a job like this myself. Gotta love simple ingenuity

[@kennydykes1145]

Yea, I have to do stuff like this by my self too, there's always a way, just ta little planning. Thanks for watching.

[@ATCRyderX]

Awesome Job, Man. I'm gonna try this with my car trailer & bit larger shed. Side Note: We need competent useful people in this world to stay living so please don't ever use one of those POS HF or WalMart Come-Alongs. Come-Alongs are junk anyways but especially those. I busted one on my little 3500lbs 20 Ft. Jetboat a few weeks ago & was lucky I didn't take a piece of the unit to the head.

[@BHANGUVIDEOSUK]

Great job. God Bless you.

Awesome job, but hey, get that/those knees replaced. It’s definitely worth it! Honestly, it made me feel at least 15 years younger! Much more active and zero pain!

[@kennydykes1145]

It looks like I'm in pain, but I'm not. Thank goodness. I've already had 6 knee surgeries, over the years. Being self employed, Ins. is out of sight and can't afford it. Thanks for watching.

I'm doing this same thing this coming weekend and this video helped out a lot.i never thought about the come along.thanks for the video

[@kennydykes1145]

I just did a second shed, twice as heavy, took two come alongs. Video coming soon, took ma and a buddy. Thanks for watching.

[@jayp8130]

@@kennydykes1145 yeah my shed is heavier than that one.its actually a 10x16 but it's solid wood.we had a bad storm here (Ida) and it only fell of the bricks so I picked it up for a price I couldn't refuse.so here I am now looking up videos on the easiest way to move it.i believe it's definitely gonna take 2 come alongs.what kind of jack that is that you used?I really like that jack

[@LtDan-hr1pb]

Glad that it worked out for you. You could have save the cost of the come-along by using the farm jack as a winch instead. Very nice find.

[@jckdnls9292]

Maybe he needed it to raise the backend while the cum-along held on to the shed from sliding back

[@o.astamp5680]

Amazing for real... I think I'd just try craigslist though, or a few friends/neighbors and a case of beer 😂👌🏽

[@TheDaydreamer87]

This gives me confidence that my husband and I can move the shed I’m purchasing instead of hiring someone for $350.

[@johnbeck5795]

I may have a similar project soon. I was thinking of lifting the shed above the height of the trailer's bed, enough so I can put round posts under the shed to run it along the trailer bed. The shed is narrow enough to fit between the wheel guards.

[@kaylachapman4469]

Those 8" block are ment to be turned the other way for true load bearing...just saying.but this shed isn't to heavy.

Thank you for video. Im moving 12 'by16' shed w/same trailer n winch. My Question is last part of video is scewed so is that shed sitting partialy on Fenders?? Just curious how you got on blocks if not on fenders at end of missing video9when shed on trailer). Thank You Sir, John Wade

[@kennydykes1145]

It barely cleared the fenders by 1/2 in, but it did take the lights off. No charge, I told my buddy i borrowed the trailer from. The furniture dolly and a block of wood was a big help, rolling onto the trailer. Check out my other video in moving a shed, it was twice as heavy.

[@MrManta2012]

the stress load on those blocks . you should have them holes vertical

[@scor440]

Stress load?Thats a good one!

[@jayp8130]

Michael is correct but I don't think that shed was heavy enough to do anything to them bricks.it all worked out fine and barely anybody plays by the rules and besides if you stay out the way from the shed falling on you you're okay 👍🏽

[@TimHoward25]

Great job, love how you did it yourself, but if I may, I was taught that whenever you have a load on a trailer you should move it as far forward as possible so your trailer won't fishtail as you are going down the road, have you heard this?

[@jimmoravec1326]

Should not put your cement blocks like that put them so the holes are up and down. Too weak the other way

[@carolstoddard7415]

Not bad. I was wondering how this is done. U still married? Lol. She must be a lucky lady 💯👊

[@giuliom8520]

You look like you could use a knee replacement. You make it look easy, wow! I think you've done this a few times before. I like your Jeep, but a truck seems more suited to your line of work.

Thanks for watching, I moved a heavier shed by myself I built 10 yrs ago, but rented a forklift, I'm fixn to move it again, I think I'll use this method on it, stay tuned, that vid will be coming soon this fall.

[@99cornisland]

blocks should go the other way to support weight. Just FYI

[@kennydykes1145]

Thanks for tuning in. My wife's boss gave me this shed for free, but the catch was he only gave me 2 days to get it removed, I had to improvise with what I had. It was actually a lot lighter than it looked, probably about 1000lbs.

[@thesay5663]

Great video lose the Benny hill music 😂

[@J.cooper4x4]

whole lot of dangerous stuff going on here. DOT officer would of had a field day with you. also i'm surprised those blocks didn't crush since you had them on their sides. i really hope no one else try's to do this, this was extremely stupid.

[@kennydykes1145]

Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment. I've been a general contractor for years and yet to crush a cinder block form just compression, I suppose it's possible if something is really, really heavy, I bet that building was less than a half ton. And as far as a DOT officer, I don't understand, here in Texas, as far a I know it is not illegal to transport a shed, on a trailer on the Texas highways. Stay tuned for more.

[@mardegan86]

Y do ppl make stupid comments like yours, what's the danger there. That's not a 10000 pound shed, that thing wheight no more than 500 pounds do u know how much wheight a cinder block can support even if placed the other way.

[@frenzy212005500212]

@@mardegan86 The stupid comment would be that of you're own. The fella literally admitted being a general contractor for years. So regardless of the unforseen dangers like one having a small crack which weakens it's integrity enough causing it to fail under what would normally be a safe weight, the dangers are there. Just because you don't see or understand them, doesn't mean you have to criticize someone calling out something unsafe. What happens when a kid KZbin's for guidance, but his shed isn't a little one you can pick up with a farm jack, and ends up with a building flattening his head simply because someone didn't point that out? Would his comment be stupid then? What the dangers are or aren't isn't really the issue in question here. It's why not do it the right way, regardless of what the dangers are?
