Your building arrives on skids already, so the question is what goes between those skids and the ground. Gravel pad is the gold standard: great drainage, stable, affordable. Concrete blocks are the budget pick and work beautifully, just grab 10 to 15 from Menards or Lowe's and our driver places them at delivery. A poured concrete slab is the premium option for garages and heavy-use buildings.
What you don't want: bare dirt or grass. Moisture will work against you over time. Even the cheapest option, concrete blocks, makes a meaningful difference in longevity.
