Most states don't have the ***** to drive to the top of the driveway.

I wouldn't worry about a permit since he's the homeowner. Did you get a permit when building that fence? You're not gonna run sewer and power to it so I wouldn't sweat it. They don't drive around looking for new structures in violation of code. They work off tips. If nobody questions it, and nobody calls it in, they'll never know the difference. And since you don't live in it, they can't make you tear it down after it's built, even if it's in violation (unless it's on some else's property, or is dangerous to others, etc).

This is WNC. Your likely to get shot as a gov. official wandering up a steep dirt road, the combined value of all the homes upon which is less than $200K. $140K of that being my house.

Your supposed to have a permit, but nobody cares, and worst case it wont add to the value of the house, which I have no intention of leaving, or selling.

I much approve of this thread.The pallets are classic

I pulled up a lot of pallet stuff on Google. It was 50/50 Toyrme e-expert types explaining why it wouldn't work, and 50/50 happy pallet shed owners. Pretty funny that the HT mentality perpetrates into basically everything.

dare i say its manuel labor

How can someone argue it wouldn't work?

Just curious what their reasoning was.

It will work. I question the rigidity of the floor and durability of the structure. Rocks and pallets aren't the best choices for a foundation and floor. A few old church benches, or old kitchen cabinets, or anything like that would be better. Here it's always humid, rains a lot, etc so a pallet laying the the back yard will rot away in a year, where maybe where yall are at it's different and things last a bit longer. It would cost me 800-1000 to build a 16x16 shed from nothing and have it up to code. 10 times yall's budget though, but it would last 10 times longer too...
