As cold weather approaches, mice and other rodents will likely look for places to stay warm and survive the winter. Sometimes that’s inside the engine bay of your truck, sometimes your attic, but a lot of the time, it’s your cold storage building or hobby shop.

It’s that time of year when we take stock of what brings us joy and how we can hang onto the happy memories we create. Because who knows what life will be like in a year or two?

When you’re ready to start your pole barn journey, of course, one of the first questions you’ll ask is, “How much does a pole barn cost?”

The beauty of post-frame buildings is that they are diverse and can be purpose-built for many different needs.

When most people think about a pole barn, they think of a rectangle with two cupolas (small squares on the roof, typically with a weather vane). This classic American look has been around for centuries, but do you need a cupola on your post-frame building?

The phrase “cost-effective” could mean something different to many people. Some people may be looking to spend the least amount of money possible. But, at the same time, others are looking to get the best bang for their buck.
