The simple Bus Stop can be much more than meets the eye. Sure, the built-in bench makes it a great place for your kids to keep out of the rain and snow while waiting for the school bus. But if you take a second look, you’ll see the potential to become a mini farm stand for selling fruits and vegetables at the end of your driveway. Or add shelves and hooks for an easy access garden storage shed that has plenty of room for your landscaping essentials. Perfect for summer camps, sports fields, parks, and playgrounds, there are endless applications for this handy alcove. Or you can make it a community affair: have your neighborhood pitch in to purchase and build this Bus Stop to give the local kids somewhere to stay dry in damp weather. The small but mighty Bus Stop comes in two different sizes. Both are constructed from handsome and sturdy hemlock and pine lumber, which will stand the elements and the test of time. Handmade at our factory in Londonderry, VT, we take pride in making this structure with the highest quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Choose Your Size & Type 

We offer the Bus Stop in two different sizes: 4’x4′ and 4’x6′. Consider how many people you think will use this structure at once when making your choice. We highly recommend our 4’x6′ model for use as a place to wait out the rain. You never know when your kids might have a friend with them that will need a seat on the bench.

We offer the Bus Stop as a complete shell kit with do-it-yourself instructions. If you happen to be within 300 miles of our factory in Londonderry, Vermont, we can also ship this lovely little alcove to you fully assembled.

Customize

Each of our buildings comes with default options that match our specifications. However, if you want to personalize your purchase, we have made that process a breeze. As you go through each step, you’ll be able to customize your shed. Oodles of options exist to style your Bus Stop just the way you’d like. We offer many all-natural pine and cedar siding options. Roofing choices include corrugated metal, Western Red Cedar shingles or shakes, and architectural asphalt shingles. Strengthen Our buildings are built to withstand harsh New England weather but offer options to increase its durability. This building defaults to joists and rafters placed at 24” on center, but you could upgrade to 16” on center to increase weight ratings, which may be useful if you plan to use this for storing heavy objects. If your building site is placed in a damp area you might also consider opting for treated skids, or a completely treated floor system to enhance weatherproofing.

• Add-Ons – Steel Shed Anchors are wrapped around your skids, then the triangular head is hammered into the ground. They provide some additional stability, which is great if you are building in a windy area. Termite Shields are placed on your foundation’s concrete blocks or piers before you start building. They deter termites from crawling on your building.
