Our Types of Temporary Sheds on Rent
To make sure you get the right temporary monsoon shed for your application, we hold a large inventory of customisable, fully removable sheds built for waterproof performance. The four structures below are the ones most sites take on rent for monsoon and short-tenure storage.
Monsoon Tarpaulin Sheds
Treated bamboo frames with tarpaulin suspended over an HDPE frame. The lowest-cost option for 1-3 month monsoon cover.
Hybrid Sheds
Bamboo and MS steel combination frames with multi-layer tarpaulin fabric - used where spans are wider than bamboo alone can carry.
PVC Sheds
Heat-welded PVC fabric on MS or aluminium frames, tensioned to spec. Chosen for longer tenures and higher wind exposure.
Warehouse and Storage Sheds
Sealed-perimeter structures with forklift-height clearance, for stock held beyond permanent godown capacity.
Temporary Shed Rental Cost and Standard Sizes
Temporary shed rental in India is quoted per square foot per month, and the rate moves with three things: frame material, span, and how long the structure stays up. Longer tenures and larger covered areas bring the per-square-foot rate down. The table below shows what each structure type is typically taken for.
| Structure Type | Typical Span | Typical Tenure |
|---|---|---|
| Monsoon Tarpaulin Shed | Up to 12 m | 1-3 months |
| Hybrid Shed | 12-18 m | 3-6 months |
| PVC Shed | 15-25 m | 6-18 months |
| Warehouse / Storage Shed | To requirement | 6-18 months |
| German Hanger | 15-40 m clear span | 3-24 months |
What the rental covers: structure, erection, monsoon-season maintenance, dismantling and site clearance. Transport and any municipal permission fees are quoted separately at survey stage.

Materials and Build Quality
Structures use 160-200 GSM laminated HDPE, PVC or Silpaulin over MS, treated bamboo or aluminium framing. Seams are heat-welded rather than stitched. Frames and anchoring are designed to the IS 875 wind zone applicable to the site and rated for 60-120 km/h sustained winds.
| Specification | Value | Why it matters on site |
|---|---|---|
| Fabric grade | 160-200 GSM multi-layer laminated Silpaulin, PVC or HDPE | Grade is selected against site exposure and rainfall intensity. We do not issue one standard fabric to every site. |
| Seam construction | Heat-welded seams | Eliminates the needle perforations that become seepage points under sustained rain. |
| Corrosion protection | Zinc-coated GI fittings, anti-corrosion primer on exposed metalwork | Specified for coastal humidity across a minimum 18-month exposure. |
| Wind design | 60-120 km/h sustained, to IS 875 | Design wind speed is taken from the zone map for your district, then confirmed against terrain category and structure height at survey. |
| Drainage | Minimum 1:50 roof slope | Runoff is directed clear of stored material and walkways instead of pooling on the roof. |
Temporary Sheds: Industries and Application
Temporary sheds serve construction, warehousing, steel, cement, coal, chemical, pharma, FMCG and agro-processing operations across India. Each structure is engineered to how the material on site behaves - corrosion risk, load, moisture sensitivity and vehicle movement - rather than supplied as a fixed standard size.
| Industry | What It Protects | Build Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Construction |
| Rapid-erection frame, relocatable |
| Warehousing & Godown | Inventory beyond permanent godown capacity | Sealed perimeter, forklift-height clearance |
| Steel & Heavy Engineering |
| MS truss rated for overhead loads |
| Cement, Coal & Bulk Yards |
| 1:50 roof slope, no pooling |
| Chemical & Specialty | Drum storage, raw material handling | Corrosion-resistant GI fittings, welded seams |
| Pharma, Food & FMCG |
|
|
| Agro & Agri-Processing |
| Peak-monsoon waterproofing, drainage |
| Plant Shutdown & Site Office |
| Short-tenure, column-free span |

How Do Our Expert Contractors Handle End-to-End Shed Setup?
Structural integrity on a temporary shed comes down to who anchors it and who tensions it. Our certified riggers and safety engineers run every project to industrial safety norms - from setting the foundation anchors to tensioning the final roof panel. Rigging crews work under a site safety engineer, anchor pull-out is checked before the fabric goes on, and tension is re-verified after the first heavy rainfall of the season.

Questions
FAQs
Do I need a permit for a temporary shed in India?
It depends on the municipal corporation, the site location and the size of the structure. Sheds erected inside private industrial premises usually need only internal approval. Structures on open land, close to roads, or above local size limits require municipal permission before erection. We confirm which applies to your site at survey stage.
Who arranges the permission - the client or the contractor?
The site owner or occupier applies, because the application is tied to the land. We supply the structural drawings, material specifications and load calculations needed to support that application.
How quickly can a temporary monsoon shed be erected on my site?
Temporary monsoon sheds up to 5,000 sq ft are fully erected within 24-72 hours of mobilisation. Large-span German hanger structures of 15- 40 metres are commissioned within 5-7 working days. Timelines are confirmed at site survey.
What does a temporary shed cost on rent?
Rental is quoted per square foot per month and depends on frame material, span and tenure. Bamboo-frame tarpaulin structures on short monsoon tenures sit at the lower end; MS truss and aluminium-frame structures on longer tenures sit higher. Rate ranges by structure type are in the cost table above, and a firm figure follows the free site survey.
Can a temporary monsoon shed withstand heavy rainfall and extreme winds?
Yes. Every monsoon shed uses 160-200 GSM laminated HDPE or heat-welded PVC fabric with storm-grade anchoring, rated for 60-120 km/h monsoon winds. Fabric and anchor specifications are designed to the IS 875 wind zone applicable to your location.
What is the minimum and maximum rental duration?
We offer monthly rentals with no fixed minimum tenure. Rentals of 1-3 months for the monsoon season typically use bamboo-frame tarpaulin structures; 6-18 month durations use MS truss or aluminium frames. Extensions can be added mid-season without downtime.
How long can a temporary structure legally stay up?
Most municipal bye-laws grant temporary structure permission for a fixed period, commonly six months to one year, renewable on application. The sanctioned duration is stated in the permission itself and is not uniform across India.
What defines a temporary shed under Indian building bye-laws?
A temporary shed is a demountable structure without permanent foundation, built from bamboo, MS or aluminium framing with fabric or sheet cladding. It is dismantled and removed without altering the plot’s built-up area or FSI.
Does a temporary shed increase property taxes?
Temporary sheds without permanent foundation are generally not assessed as built-up area for property tax. Assessment rules vary by corporation, so confirm with your local ward office before an extended-tenure installation.
Do you supply or manufacture the sheds?
We are a supplier, rental provider and erection contractor. We hold our own inventory of frames and fabric, engineer each structure to site, erect it, maintain it through the season and remove it. We do not manufacture fabric or sections.
