About ShedAtlas: how the directory is built
How listings are ordered
Every listing is treated the same way: ordered alphabetically by state, city and name, or by estimated straight-line distance when you search near a place. There is no paid placement, paid verification or paid inclusion anywhere on this site.
Where the listings come from
Every listing is a record collected from a manufacturer's own public dealer locator. Today that is 83 manufacturers, 4,780 source listings, 48 states, collected 2026-09-11 to 2026-10-23.

Coverage is unknown: every source carries the coverage class UNKNOWN_COVERAGE, which means no completeness claim is made for it. A manufacturer's locator lists the dealers that manufacturer chooses to publish, and ShedAtlas has not reconciled any list against an independent count. Two listings with the same name in the same town are kept as two records until evidence shows they are one business.
What the dates mean
"Record collected" is the day ShedAtlas retrieved the listing from the manufacturer, not the day the manufacturer last changed it. Address, phone and hours carry their own collection dates because they came from different pages. A relative age such as "3 days ago" is arithmetic on that date and nothing more.
What a listing does and does not say
A listing says a manufacturer published this dealer at this address on the collection date. It does not say the address is a shed display lot, that the business is open today, that inventory is on hand, or that prices or hours are current. Absence from a locator never means a dealer has closed. ShedAtlas does not publish reviews, ratings, rankings or inventory.
How corrections work
Every location page has a correction form. A report queues a human recheck against the manufacturer's listing or the dealer's own site. It never edits the record, never closes a dealer, and never changes any ordering, and nothing a reporter sends is published on a listing. Only a fresh reading of the manufacturer's listing or the dealer's own public page can change what a record says. If you leave an email address it is kept 90 days and is never shown on this site. The form works without JavaScript. If you would rather use email, corrections also reach contact@shedatlas.com. Takedown requests or complaints go to abuse@shedatlas.com and stop collection from the affected source while they are reviewed.
How collection behaves
ShedAtlas requests public, logged-out pages only, identifies itself in every request with a contact address (crawl@shedatlas.com), keeps to one request at a time with several seconds between requests, and stops on any request to stop. Only factual fields are kept: names, addresses, map points, public phone numbers, hours, manufacturer relationship and source identifiers. No photos, marketing copy, reviews or inventory are collected.
