Metal Carport for Camper

Any recommendations for Carport Kits? Looking for something around 30x30 with 14' clearance. There are so many companies it is hard to find any differences. I'm located in Oregon but open to any company. Thanks.

  • Jfresh,

    Here in Oregon (I don't know about other states) ANY carport company you call is somehow tied into Coast to Coast Carports. At least it was when we were looking. We did wind up ordering one and I was worried after reading their reviews online. We didn't cancel the order, hubby's wish, and did have it installed. We are happy with it.
    Install went quick once the 2 man crew showed up. Promised a first in the morning install and the crew arrived at 7 p.m. IF you do choose to use C2C be a bit prepared. We supplied lighting and electricity due to the late evening hour. A language barrier is very possible too. We speak no Spanish but hubby managed:)

    Don't know if this might help or not, just our experience.
  • Don't buy it from Coast to Coast Carports. They have horrible customer service and from my experience damn near everyone that works for the company is full of bull****.
  • If you put your TC on a dolly you could lower it and then build a smaller shed. My little pop up fits in my garage with just a 7 foot tall door.
  • I have seen a guy put a 10' one on top of 4' wood walls. It looked like a kit from The Home Depot or such. I am not exactly sure how he did the front opening.
    My neighbor had a 12 foot one from Menards. Seemed well built, but after 4 years a storm left him with just the frame. The replacement top would have been the same price as a whole new unit.
    I thought of doing the metal frame with tin roof type. And then eventually ad tin all around.
    Sorry, I did not help you much with name brands.
