When thinking about extra storage for yard toys and tools, the first natural choice in many people's mind is a storage shed. And there are many options - build your own shed out of wood, prebuilt wood sheds, miniature pole buildings, etc. Unfortunately most of these options tend to be very expensive and laborious - especially when you factor in ongoing maintenance. But a new type of storage shed has emerged in recent times which simplifies the choice - a polymer based Rubbermaid storage shed.
How Rubbermaid Storage Sheds Work
Rubbermaid storage sheds are built from a high strength polymer resin. They are shipped in pieces which you assemble on site - wherever you would like the shed to be. Rubbermaid sheds include floors and grooves for extra storage shelves. They come in a wide variety of sizes, horizontal and vertical, anything from a few square feet all the way up to large 7x7 300 plus square foot storage sheds.
Why Choose a Rubbermaid Storage Shed
The reasons for choosing a Rubbermaid shed over regular sheds are clear. First, their high strength resin resists sunlight, water, and dirt. This means it requires no paint, no reshingling, and won't rot out. Next, because they are molded at the factory and assembled at your home, they are easier to assemble and cost less than wood sheds - there is no shortage of plastic. Finally, they won't take large amounts of your time. You simply screw them together and your set - insert tools and toys and forget about it. No maintenance needed.
Decide What you Will Store in your Rubbermaid Shed
Before purchasing your shed, you should decide which items you will store in them. This will largely determine what size shed you should select. If you are storing bikes and a push lawn mower, you will want a large vertical model. If you are simply storing toys and small garden accessories, its possible a small horizontal model or a closet type space will work for you. If you want an entire shed, consider the Big Max 7x7 foot storage shed.
In addition to sheds, you can purchase storage containers from Rubbermaid. These will let you organize small accessories to protect your investments and maximize your use of space.
