Car sheds, also called carports or vehicle shelters, are a cheap way to keep your car protected from the weather. That means getting wet in rain and snow, being dented by hail or getting sun-damaged because of UV rays. Car sheds come in a variety of sizes and can accommodate various kinds of vehicles and garden equipment. With little DIY skill and some basic tools, they are relatively easy to assemble, although care is required both in their erection and to keep them protected from rust.
