I am trying to find some websites of manufactures that sell large portable or semi-permanent quansits, or garages. Alot of farms have these, its like a 30' by 50' metal building used to store equipment and cars. Its called a "quansit" and you can get them in various sizes and I have seen a few people using the really small plastic ones as temporary shelters for their vehicle during winter. I don't want to sound like an idiot for not knowing what they are called but if you have any idea what Im talking about, any information about them would be appreciated. Thanks alot.

They have 'portable car shelter/garage' for sale at Canadian Tire (various size, one to two car versions iirc).
They are much cheaper than a real garage.

Side question: How well they work/last? Has anyone used them? Is it feasible to get these instead of a garage (usage will be everyday parking, not as a workshop)?

I bought mine from Costco $299 and I just put mine up during winter so I dont have to scrape snow off the car...

There is a company in saskatoon called "cover all" or something like that. They make amazing enclosures for almost any sized applications.

They don't have to be that big, you can get ones that fit a trailer, etc. for under a grand i think. Ill check with one of the wife's cousins, he works there.
