sit down storage

[hfthe3rd]

i need a cheap cheap idea to store my sit down because i want to use my trailer for daytona to take my stand up on... Reason why im posting this is i live in buffalo and really dont want to put my sit down on the ground because we have about a foot of snow and my sitdown is almost all tarped except the bottom.

im trying to think of an ez way to take it off the trailer for two weeks..

only i dea i thought of was to get about 5 pallets and put it on the pallets and hope it stays with out breaking them,,, ?

any ideas?

you dont want it on the ground because of snow?

What kind of couch? Approx how much does it weigh? I don't see any problem with using pallets. If you have any wood laying around you can build a stand pretty quick and cheap. I use 3" pvc and make my stands... Easy to build not exactly cheap @ $60 to build.

Do a search for stands on here and you will find tons of ideas, here are some to get you going...

Yeah. Or you could use 1 big tractor tire.

A couple of any ol' tires would work as long as the snow isn't too deep...:afro:


... or for that matter get another tarp and put it on the ground (last resort!)

I know right.
It's like cold water and stuff.:biggthumpup:

Tires work awesome..... go take some from a Dunn Tire or somthing.... haha... or just burn the couch and that will solve that problem.
If you dont bring my cart down and want to put it on there all you have to do is pick up my 4 wheel cart

build a wood stand. use 4x4 posts 16'' long and then just use 2x4 to measure the distance between your dips in the hull. this will determine how how far apart the 4x4's are. cost me $18 to make THREE!! easy easy

PVC works....this is my carbon fiber GP so the weight is low. Not sure if I would trust the PVC on a full weight couch
