Sizes and Prices

Rent-to-own Carport Sizes and What They Cost per Month

Every size below sits inside the rent-to-own range. Monthly figures assume 10% down on a 72-month term and are shown before taxes.

One-car Carport 12'x21' to 18'x26' · 252 to 468 sq ftOne car, a truck or a small boat, with walking room down one side.$4,704$156.20

A wider carport is not automatically a dearer one. Roof style, leg height and wind or snow certification move the price more than a couple of feet of width does, which is why the cheapest two-car carport currently lists below the cheapest one-car unit. Starting prices are the lowest currently listed for each size class and change with steel pricing, your state and the options you add. Monthly figures are estimates on the balance left after a 10% down payment, before taxes. Your exact payment is confirmed on your agreement.

Build the Carport You Actually Need

Options are priced into the carport before your rent-to-own agreement is written, so there is no second approval step for closing in a side or raising the legs.

Roof Style

  • Regular roof, the most affordable option
  • A-frame boxed eave for a house-matched look
  • Vertical roof, the right pick for snow, leaves and long spans

Width and Length

  • Widths from 12' up to 30' for a triple-wide
  • Lengths in 5' increments, with extra bracing on longer runs
  • Lean-tos added along one or both sides for extra cover

Leg Height

  • 6' legs for cars and everyday parking
  • 8' to 10' legs for work trucks, boats and lifts
  • 12' to 14' legs for a motorhome or fifth wheel

Sides and Ends

  • Fully open, or closed in on one or two sides
  • Gable ends and partial side panels for wind-driven rain
  • Close it in completely and it becomes a garage

Frame and Gauge

  • 14-gauge or heavier 12-gauge galvanized steel tubing
  • 29-gauge or 26-gauge panels
  • Certified wind and snow ratings where your county requires them

Surface and Anchoring

  • Rebar anchors for bare ground, asphalt anchors for asphalt
  • Concrete anchors where you already have a slab
  • Roof, trim and panel colours picked separately

Why a Carport

What People Park Under a Rent-to-own Carport

An open steel carport costs a fraction of an enclosed garage and takes the sun, hail and falling branches off whatever sits under it.

Daily Drivers and Work Trucks

Off the open driveway, out of the hail and the sun, and no scraping the windscreen on a frosty morning.

RVs, Campers and Fifth Wheels

Twelve to fourteen foot legs clear a motorhome roof, and covered storage at home beats paying an RV lot every month.

Boats and Trailers

A bass boat, a jet ski trailer or a utility trailer under cover instead of under a tarp that tears every winter.

Tractors and Farm Equipment

Mowers, attachments, hay and implements kept out of the weather without committing to a barn-sized build.

Covered Work Space

Close in one side and the same frame gives you a shaded, dry spot to work on a project without a full shop.

Shade and Gathering Space

Plenty of customers use a triple-wide as a covered patio, a market stall or shade over an outdoor seating area.

Rent-To-Own Metal Carport Financing

The real beauty of our RTO program is that you never have to worry about having to deal with an outside agency that may or may not approve your application; our Rent-To-Own program is available from Carport Central directly.
Carport Central guarantees that anyone who applies won’t be subjected to a long, drawn-out, frustrating credit check process. Our RTO program doesn’t involve any credit checks whatsoever!
In addition to the lack of invasive and unnecessary credit checks, we can approve your application on the same day that you apply for our RTO metal building program. This means that you’ll never have to wait for an extended period wondering about a decision. We’ve eliminated this source of stress by streamlining the Rent-To-Own process!

Carport Central has structured our Rent-To-Own program such that all contracts run on a month-to-month basis, rather than having you tied up in a stressful long-term contract. This structure – along with our reasonable RTO prices – make this an ideal solution!  We also know that financial situations change, or different circumstances can arise. If this happens with one of our Rent-To-Own clients, we’re happy to work with you to find a feasible solution that will be beneficial for you, as well as for Carport Central.

Rent-To-Own Metal Carport Advantages

One of the nice benefits of our Rent-To-Own metal carport contract is the fact that you always have the option to pay off the balance in full at any time, rather than continuing with monthly payments. If you find that your finances will allow you to do so, you can just pay off the remaining amount and go from being a renter to becoming an owner of a great steel structure!  The terms of the RTO contracts are fully open, so there is no financial penalty with paying off the balance before the term is up, unlike some other lenders who impose penalties for early payoffs. Many of our customers find our Rent-To-Own payments to be so reasonable that they are often able to finish paying off the balance early, and that’s fine with us!

rent-to-own-carport-options

At Carport Central, our custom metal buildings are crafted with steel components that are precision-engineered in a dedicated production facility before being delivered to your install site.

In fact, most of our steel carports can be fully assembled and installed in a day!

What kind of steel carport are you looking for? Single-car, double-car, or triple-car carport? RV cover? Utility carport? A place to store hay? Or something else? Whatever your requirements, Carport Central can help you get the perfect structure to suit both your needs AND your budget!

FAQ

Rent-to-own Carport Questions

Can I Rent to Own a Carport with No Credit Check?

Yes. Rent-to-own approval on a metal carport priced up to $25,000 involves no credit check and no hard inquiry on your credit report. You answer a few questions, sign the rent-to-own agreement, and you are approved the same day.

How Much Is a Rent-to-own Carport per Month?

It depends on the carport price and the term you pick. A one-car carport starting around $4,704 works out to roughly $156.20 a month on a 72-month term with 10% down. A two-car carport starting around $4,008 is roughly $142.86 a month on 60 months. Both figures are before taxes. The payment table on this page shows every term.

Can I Get a Rent-to-own Carport for Under $1,000?

Not the carport itself, but the amount you hand over to get started can be. Rent-to-own starts at 10% down plus a security deposit, so on a one-car carport at the bottom of the range that first payment is a few hundred dollars rather than a few thousand. The carport then runs from about $156.20 a month on a 72-month term, before taxes. Any advert offering a full steel carport for under $1,000 in total is quoting you a deposit, not a price. Use the calculator on this page to see the real monthly number for the size you want.

What Size Carports Can I Rent to Own?

Any carport priced between $2,500 and $25,000, which covers one-car carports from about 12'x21' up through two-car and triple-wide carports around 30'x36', plus RV covers up to roughly 24'x40' with 12 to 14 foot legs. Larger commercial spans fall outside the rent-to-own range and go through financing instead.

Can I Rent to Own an RV Carport or Camper Cover?

Yes. RV covers are the most common tall build we put on rent-to-own. An RV carport starting around $7,254 is roughly $240.88 a month on 72 months with 10% down, before taxes. Tell us the length and height of your motorhome or fifth wheel and we will size the legs so you clear the roof with room to spare. See RV carport kits for the full range.

Can I Rent to Own an Enclosed or Partially Enclosed Carport?

Yes. A carport can be left fully open, closed in on one or two sides, given gable ends, or enclosed completely so it becomes a garage. Sides and ends are priced into the building before the rent-to-own agreement is written, so there is no separate approval step. Once it is fully enclosed you are looking at a garage, and rent-to-own metal garages covers that side.

Which Roof Style Should I Pick on a Rent-to-own Carport?

Regular roof is the most affordable and suits mild weather and shorter lengths. A-frame boxed eave gives the horizontal panels and house-matched look. Vertical roof runs the panels top to bottom so rain, leaves and snow shed off, and it is the right pick for long spans, heavy snow areas and anything over about 36 feet. Roof style changes the price more than an extra couple of feet of width does.

How Much Is the Down Payment on a Rent-to-own Carport?

The down payment starts at 10% of the carport price and a security deposit is also required. Putting more down lowers the monthly payment. Use the calculator on this page to compare 10% against 20%.

What Rent-to-own Terms Are Available on a Carport?

Terms run 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 months. A shorter term costs less in total, a longer term gives you the lowest monthly payment, and every term lets you pay the balance off early.

Can I Pay Off a Rent-to-own Carport Early?

Yes. The contract is open, so you can convert the rental into a purchase and clear the balance in full at any point with no early payoff penalty. Plenty of customers pay theirs out well before the term ends.

Do You Install the Carport, or Do I?

Installation on a level site is included with your metal carport. Our crew fabricates and installs it the same way a cash purchase would be handled. You are responsible for site prep and levelling the ground before delivery.

Can I Put a Rent-to-own Carport on Concrete, Asphalt or Bare Ground?

All three. The anchors change with the surface: rebar anchors for ground, asphalt anchors for asphalt, and concrete anchors for a slab. The carport itself goes on the rent-to-own agreement; concrete is quoted separately because slab work is carried out by a local contractor before delivery. See metal buildings with concrete for how that works.

Is a Rent-to-own Carport Better than a Portable Canopy?

A fabric canopy is cheaper up front and does not last. A steel carport is anchored, certifiable for wind and snow where your county requires it, and ends up as a permanent structure you own. On rent-to-own you spread that cost over 24 to 72 months instead of paying it all at once, which is usually why people compare the two in the first place.

What Is the Difference Between Rent-to-own and Financing a Carport?

Rent-to-own needs no credit check, approves the same day and runs 24 to 72 months on a month-to-month contract. Financing runs a credit check, covers buildings up to $250,000 and stretches to 180 months for a lower monthly payment. Rent-to-own is the faster path if your credit is thin or you want to skip the application altogether. The rent-to-own program page compares both in full.

Are Rent-to-own Carports Available Near Me?

Rent-to-own availability varies by state. Send your ZIP code with your quote request and a building specialist will confirm what is available in your area, what wind and snow certification your county asks for, and what the delivered price looks like before you sign anything.

Get the Carport Now, Pay for It Monthly

No credit check up to $25,000, approval the same day, and you can pay it off whenever you are ready. Send your details and a building specialist will size the carport, confirm what is available in your state, and price it with you.

All monthly payments shown on this page are illustrative estimates only, calculated on the balance remaining after a 10% down payment and shown before taxes. They are not an offer, quote or commitment. A security deposit is required, and your actual payment, term and total cost are set out in your signed rent-to-own agreement. Starting prices are the lowest currently listed for each size class and vary by state, certification and options. Rent-to-own is offered by Carport Central directly on buildings priced between $2,500 and $25,000; buildings outside that range go through third-party financing. Rent-to-own availability varies by state. Title to the carport remains with Carport Central until the agreement is paid in full.
