Hello all , I'm new to this site but am hoping you could all help me . I started gardening a couple of years ago and love it very much . I have taken the next step and purchased a greenhouse from eBay . I need to collect it this week and have read all the posts re taking it to pieces However , here comes the silly question .... If I fully dismantle it (6x6) will it fit in a mini with seats folded down ? I'm trying to avoid spending money hiring a van !! Thank you all !!!

What about the glass? Its very heavy. I'm sure you can move it in a mini but it may take several trips. If you hired a van you may not need to completely dismantle the green house which make reassembly much easier! -

I bet you never inspected how the glass was held in did you ? If it is held in place with preformed extruded tubing that sits in a groove in the ally you're lucky. If it is thin beads of mastic. BEWARE, 'tis a begger to remove (take a long thin knife with you). Cheers, Tony.Semper in Excrementem Altitvdo Solvs Varivs.

The thing to test is can you fit a 6 ft pole in your car... know it sound pretty obvious, but....
I managed to move a 12ft by 6ft greenhouse by putting the 12ft pieces through the sunroof....Never test the depth of the water with both feet
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....
Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

yes, put the seats down and measure the space to see- can you do it in 2 trips?
and welcome!

I've carried loads in a mini (new style) with the seats down. I know my GH would fit in there, and that's a 6 x 10 - through the sunroof (I know as I took the boxes to the tip along with loads of other things)

Hello and a very warm welcome to the Vine. Hope you manage to transport your greenhouse with the minimum of expenditure. Where are you by the way? It's a big help to know, so could you put your location into your profile please?
