Hi Tribe,

Usually a Costco carport. They may still have them available.

They come and go in the stores. Also, call them up and see if they have any "canopies" in stock. "Carports" dosen't seem to show up on their computer searches.

Where are you? We picked up a 3rd carport for under 80 at a hardware store in Iowa. Just need to replace the white roof with silver.

Re: What Carport to buy? PLease help...Costco Carport

the Costco Carport is 10 x 20 with side and end panels, side door. item nbr 496840 - you can call Costco before you go and see if they have it in stock or if its available at another Costco fairly local. about $200- I use 5 gal buckets tethered to the tops of the poles and filled with water or sand to anchor it. Just bought another one to use as a carport today- July 31, 2013

We scored a Costco carport here in LA (Burbank) just a couple weeks ago. Had to keep following up to see when they got them in. I was mislead by threads suggesting that they are only around in spring . Costco said they re-order them and they come in a few different times a yr.
