Plastic shed bases, unlike their wood shed base counterparts, won’t decompose or break down over time. Unlike other bases, our shed bases won’t rust or break down in the elements. The metal and wood shed bases will fall apart, rust and decay in the weather. Our plastic shed bases will stand the test of time. Our shed bases are also lightweight and moveable whereas the wood shed bases are heavy and difficult to move around.
Wooden shed bases are becoming a thing of the past with the advent of plastic shed bases. When you build your shed using a woodshed base you are killing trees and hurting Mother Nature.

Using recycled plastic waste materials will keep the trash from being tossed into the already overflowing landfills. So by choosing the plastic shed bases over wooden shed bases you are helping to save the planet.
