A friend of mine gave me a small building, just had to move it a couple miles. It would not fit on my trailer, so I pulled it down the road with my tractor (500 ft) and across a field (with permission) another 1/2 mile to my house. I raised the building and used 2- 4x4's as runners, with eye bolts to hook chains up. The trip down the chip sealed road wore down about half the 4x4, sure was glad to get in the field. Pictures below.

That looks like a good reason for 3 pt forks. Pick it up, and drive away.

The forks would have to be long and strong. The building is 8'6" x 12'x 11' tall and was all my tractor wanted to just pick up one end to slide the runners under it. It also has 3/4" wood floor and 7/16" aspenite on the interior walls and 2 layers of shingles.
