A couple years ago I decided it was time to build my own shop/garage at home. I am lucky enough that I was able to store toys at the shop that I work at but my employer had purchased a lot to build a new larger building on that probably wasn't going to have a good corner for me to hide my stuff in and I was ready to bring my stuff home to make it more convenient to work on.
I purchased a pole barn kit from a local company named Parker Buildings. They had the most complete kit that I could find and were able to do the engineering stuff so that I could build in the city of Portland. Many pole building places didn't want to touch stuff in city limits. The only thing that Parker's kit doesn't include is concrete and labor.
I started off doing dirt work and making sure that I could get permits. There were several struggles permitting a building of this size in the city, square footage limitation and height limits among other things. That was one of the reasons I went with Parker. Many places didn't want to modify their kits to lower the roof height while keeping a 14' tall door for example.
