Josh Falcon has been moving sheds across Florida for more than 12 years.
Meet Josh Falcon—a name you may not know, but a man whose work you’ve definitely seen across the hundreds of shed haulers in the shed world.
For over 12 years, Josh has been delivering and moving sheds across Florida for Crossroads Sheds using little more than a tilt trailer, PVC pipe, and an iron will.
Josh is the kind of guy you want on your team when things get tough. Salt-of-the-earth. No excuses. No shortcuts. He doesn’t rely on high-tech equipment or the latest tools of the trade—instead, he leans on his resourcefulness, grit, and good old-fashioned hard work. A jack, a level, a winch, some pipe, and a breaker bar are his daily tools of choice.
And don’t forget the thousands of concrete blocks he’s hauled and stacked one by one.
Oh, and in Florida? Every shed must be anchored to code. That means dealing with everything from stubborn coral rock to dodging underground utilities. Falcon has seen it all—and still shows up the next day ready for more.
When I asked Josh how long he’s been in the business, he answered with a quiet smile, “About 12, maybe 13 years. Every day is a different challenge.”
But don’t let his calm tone fool you. Like most shed haulers, he’s wrestled with the idea of throwing in the towel more than once.
“A lot,” he said. “But I don’t want to be defeated. If I’m going to do something, I want to do it. And anything that gets in my way? I find ways to work around it.”
That attitude has earned him the nickname “MacGyver” among our team—a title that fits perfectly.
ONE FOR THE BOOKS
When asked to recall one of his more memorable jobs, Josh didn’t hesitate.
“There was a multi-module shed we picked up out of Bonita Springs,” he began. “We started at 8 a.m. It took forever just to get it unbolted—everything was fighting us. We had trailer issues. Then we had to haul it down a sugar sand trail into a patch of woods. It was pitch black by the time we finished—about 3 a.m. the next morning.”
That’s a 19-hour day.
No Mule. No fancy trailer. Just PVC pipes, a snatch block, a winch, some boards, and a whole lot of perseverance.
“We probably spent seven or eight hours just dragging that thing a half-mile down that sand trail,” he laughed.
MODERN TOOLS VS. CLASSIC SKILL
Josh recently added a Mule to his setup—something most haulers would consider essential. But when asked if he preferred using it, his answer was telling.
“If I can back the truck and trailer to the spot, I’d rather just do that,” he said. “I’ve done it so long, I can do it blindfolded. By the time you unload the Mule, I could already have the shed tipped, set, and be halfway through blocking and leveling.”
Efficiency born from experience.
ADVICE FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
So, what would Josh tell someone thinking of getting into shed hauling?
“First, stop limiting yourself with conventional ideas,” he shared. “Shed hauling is never easy. But there’s almost always a way—it just takes out-of-the-box thinking.
“Second, you need tenacity. Some days are smooth. Other days, nothing works. You have to endure.”
And finally, perhaps most importantly, “Remember, we’re the last face the customer sees. Your customer service reflects the entire company. If the customer has a bad experience with the hauler, that’s what they’ll remember when it’s time to buy again.”
Josh Falcon may not seek the spotlight, but his work—and his words—deserve it. He represents the unsung backbone of our industry: the haulers who grind day in and day out, turning impossible jobs into finished deliveries. And he does it all with PVC pipe and persistence.
