what kind of foundation is needed for a plastic or resin shed?
Question by homer simpson: what kind of foundation is needed for a plastic or resin shed?
It’s almost 8×8. I want to get away with the minimum. It’s molded plastic so it won’t rot. Can I just put it on level stone slabs?
It’s on a slight hill before leveling the area. I don’t want concrete and I don’t know if I can avoid bringing in gravel or not.

you will definitely need something to anchor it from the winds so maybe some tie downs that go over the top of the shed or maybe even dog tie down you know that you can twist into the ground to keep it grounded maybe one on each corner. alot of you wooden swingsets with play towers have these as well to keep it on the ground. i put in about a half a dozen of them for my granddaughters. any retail store will have them walmart rural king etc

I start with the foundation kit I guess……… level……… vapor barrier….. Do I have to anchor it then or later?…… Then build tool shed kit on top of foundation kit…… Do they tie together? At what point do I need to anchor it?…… and then, anchor it how? Cable into ground with concrete to hold it down?……… HELP!
