Mobile Field Shelters

Mobile field shelters sit on timber skids rather than fixed foundations, so they can be towed to fresh ground whenever the paddock needs it. When the entrance starts to poach, move the shelter and let the grass recover instead of watching it turn to mud.

Each shelter is built in solid timber with an open front, giving horses and livestock dry standing wherever it happens to be parked that month. The skid base spreads the structure's weight and slides over grass without carving it up.

That flexibility suits rented grazing and rotating pasture especially well, where a permanent building either isn't possible or doesn't make sense.

Everything you need to know

Choosing the right garden storage for your space

Garden storage has to do three things at once: keep your kit dry, stand up to British weather year after year, and actually look right next to your planting. Most cheap options get one of those — ours are designed around all three.

Use the filters to narrow by capacity, material, and feature. If you're not sure where to start, our 60-second storage finder will shortlist three options for your garden.

Common questions

Before you buy Mobile Field Shelters.

How do mobile field shelters move between fields?

Mobile field shelters sit on timber skids rather than fixed foundations, so they can be towed to fresh ground whenever the paddock needs it. The skid base spreads the structure's weight and slides over grass without carving it up. When the entrance starts to poach, you move the shelter and let the worn ground recover instead of turning to mud.

Why choose a mobile field shelter over a permanent one?

That flexibility suits rented grazing and rotating pasture especially well, where a permanent building either is not possible or does not make sense. Moving the shelter follows your grazing rotation and keeps any single spot from being churned up. For land you do not own or intend to build on, a skid-mounted shelter is the practical answer.

What are mobile field shelters made from?

Each shelter is built in solid timber with an open front, giving horses and livestock dry standing wherever it happens to be parked that month. The timber build sits naturally in a paddock, while the skid base underneath is what lets it travel. Keeping the timber treated helps it stand up to weather as it moves around your land.

Do skids damage the grass when the shelter is moved?

The skid base is designed to spread the structure's weight and slide over grass without carving it up, which is the whole point of moving it before the ground poaches. Moving the shelter regularly means no single patch takes constant traffic, so pasture gets time to recover rather than being worn down to bare earth.

Is grazing rotation easier with a mobile shelter?

Yes. Because the shelter travels on skids, it moves with your grazing rotation, so animals always have dry standing on whichever section they are using. When an area needs resting, the shelter goes too, taking the congregation point with it. This makes rotating pasture far simpler than working around a fixed structure that never moves.
