Sheds Carstairs – Portable Buildings of Alberta

A portable shed (storage shed, storage building, or utility shed) is a structure that can be easily moved from one location to another, making it a flexible option that blends seamlessly with existing buildings. It’s typically made from lightweight materials such as wood, metal, or plastic and can be assembled and disassembled relatively easily. The per-square-foot cost is usually lower because you don’t always need a foundation, making it a smart investment for homeowners in Red Deer and across Alberta.

Our portable buildings come in a wide array of sizes and styles—perfect for everything from storing garden equipment and tools to creating functional workshops, garages, or even cozy backyard studios. Many of our sheds are delivered fully built, so set up is quick and easy, giving you instant extra space without the hassle of a lengthy build.

We offer custom options to match your property’s look and your specific needs, with exterior finishes like metal siding and roofing, or classic wood siding with shingle roofs. Some sheds can be moved by hand, while others require a truck or trailer, depending on the size.

We’re proud to provide Red Deer homeowners with durable, versatile storage space solutions tailored to Alberta’s unique climate and building conditions. Let us know what you’re looking for—we’ll help design the perfect shed for your property.

While portable and modular buildings share some similarities, there are several key differences between the two:

1. Construction: Portable buildings are typically constructed using lightweight materials, such as wood, aluminum, or plastic, while modular buildings are constructed using standard building materials, such as steel, concrete, or wood. Modular buildings are designed to be more durable and long-lasting than portable buildings, which are often more temporary in nature.
2. Design: Portable buildings are often pre-designed and available in a limited range of sizes and styles, while modular buildings can be custom designed to meet specific needs and requirements. Modular buildings can be constructed in a variety of sizes and configurations, allowing for greater flexibility and customization.
3. Mobility: Portable buildings are designed to be easily moved from one location to another, while modular buildings are intended to be more permanent structures. While modular buildings can be disassembled and moved if needed, they are typically more difficult to move than portable buildings.
4. Building Codes: Portable buildings are often exempt from building codes and regulations because they are considered temporary structures, while modular buildings must comply with all local building codes and regulations.

Overall, premier portable buildings are typically more affordable and offer greater mobility and flexibility, while modular buildings are more durable, customizable, and designed for longer-term use. The choice between the two depends on the specific needs and requirements of the user, as well as the intended use of the building.
