I have fifteen acres and keep mine under a trailer pole barn that my wife and I built just for it.
I have a gravel floor, but keep the tires on plywood.
I used treated 6" x 6"'s for the poles and saw mill lumber for the rest, with shingles over OSB for the roof
I left an opening for where the trailer door is and framed out an opening for around the dinette picture window to allow more light in during the day, since we have no electricity.
We cut all the lumber by hand except for that which I could cut in my shop.
We built it five years ago and it is amazing how clean the trailer roof along with the rest of it has stayed.
I think it is well worth it
