Here is one of my several sheds full of stuff like this. I'm going to be looking for a camper, enclosed trailer, job trailer, mobile home, or shipping container this spring to turn into a shop and storage.

All of that stuff used to be money.
All of that money used to be time.
Time we spent making the money to buy that stuff.
Time spent shopping for more stuff.
Time we spend managing that stuff (moving, sorting, cleaning, storing it, etc.)

Now you want more..... places to store more stuff.

I think you might be a hoarder if......

That's just a fraction of my stuff. And I'm not going to deny being a hoarder. Main goal here is to get everything on one property and all the small stuff in one structure.

I was being stupid when I got home from work last night at almost 11 pm and swung the rear of my truck into a snow bank for fun, my homemade bumper didn't hold up, it has been otherwise very good tho the last 9 months. Time to make something better I think.1000008928.jpg

For storage and work area? Like Stihl livin mentioned, shipping container.
I'd want to have it off the ground far enough to let air circulate. Trapped moisture will rot/rust a floor faster than you'd expect.
A single axle storage trailer gives you an axle already under it if you need to move it.
Make sure the landing gear stays with the trailer, not removed.
If memory serves me, you also have to have the "dock bumper" on the rear (certain height from ground) to be road legal.
Decent tires and working brakes and a set of lights, pretty much gets it moveable again. Then you need to find someone to pull it.
Downside is the height off of the ground.
But a lotta dogs can sleep under it and bark at the prowlers.
