Temporary Garages?
Anyone use on of these? I might need to get one this summer. It'll need to stand up to New England winters (strong wind, potentially lots of snow on it) and, of course, last.
What specs should I look for when comparing? Any things to avoid? Any must haves?
What about anchors? I've seen auger type, "duckbill" type and hook type.
Any and all info welcome as this is the first time I've considered using one of these things. Thanks.
