It isn't neccesary to use the exact containers pictured. Any type of tote can be used (like Rubbermaid). As for crushing the contents below, I use two bricks laid flat on the bottom tote to make sure the tote above it isn't sitting in liquid. And when you start with the third tote (the link Stephan provided explains how to use the 3 tote system) the contents still in the second tote holds the third tote up. What I wrote probably left you even more confused (LOL) but if you check out the link you should be able to understand.

If you google "pole buildings" or "pole barns" and "stick built" garages/shops/buildings/etc., you'll find threads on other forums on this topic. We haven't built our shop yet, but I have researched it over the last couple years. For me, I found companies that specialize in this at our local home & garden expo, via word of mouth, on craigslist under services and on my county's permit web site. My county gives all the information on what permits were applied for and what company is doing the work; it basically gave me a list of who was building the shops locally and how much they are valued at.. I've done lots of driving around to look at the work done and see if it is what I'm after.... Since we plan on finishing our shop to match our house and insulating it, a pole building vs. stick-built building is around the same price. There is no point, for us, to pursue a pole building because of it. If you don't want to insulate and don't need to match finishes (on all sides,) a pole building will likely cost much less.

It is possible to build a pool during new home construction, but it's important to plan it carefully. Depending on the timing and sequencing of the construction, it may be possible to have the pool built simultaneously with the house. However, if the pool is built before the house, there is a risk of damage to the pool during the rest of the construction process. As for the timing, if you want to avoid the spring rush, it's wise to start the pool construction as soon as possible. Speaking of home improvements, have you considered installing epoxy garage flooring? It's a great way to upgrade your garage's look while also improving its durability and functionality. If you're interested, you can check out americanpolyfloor.com for more information. However, keep in mind that it may be better to complete the pool construction first before starting on any other home improvement projects.
