Lisa McDaniel on Aug 18, 2014Yes, well as level as the yard can be. I'm just wanting something to put the garbage cans on so they don't lay in the yard when empty. Or roll down the street in high winds. I don't have any photos, but the way I see it is the posts (4 corners) are 3ft and a piece of plywood 4ft long & 3ft wide and off the ground a foot - foot & 1/2. And a rail 2x4 on the back side with the bungee cord/chain to hold them inHelpful Reply

Z on Aug 18, 2014I'd say build it like you would a deck then. These videos should be able to help you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeDvNXAJ7vY And if you need helping planning/designing, check here. http://www.lowes.com/cd_Deck+Designer+Planner_733683095_Helpful Reply

Lynda on Aug 19, 2014I made one with the front & back picket fence sections. At the end I have a picket fence gate and the concrete base extends out 6' from gate. Garbage day comes and I roll the can out for pick up and then back in to its stall. In front I have a rose bush and just some low ground cover on the concrete slab outside the gate. So far the garbage truck has not damaged either the fence nor the ground cover.Helpful Reply
