Customizing Your Storage Solution: Size and Style

If you’ve spent any amount of time searching for the best storage shed, you already know how overwhelming it can feel. From size, color, shape, features, and beyond, there are a million combinations (and price points) of storage sheds that you can choose from. While just about all of the options will provide a safe place to store your items, the difference comes in the quality and durability of the shed you pick. 

If you’re like most shed-buyers, you’re just interested in ending your search with a great-quality and budget-friendly storage space to enhance your home’s functionality and put your mind at ease. Thankfully, we’ve been in the shed world for generations and can offer you a few rules of thumb as you’re thinking and planning for your future shed purchase. Ultimately, the goal is to get the best value for your money and ensure that the shed you choose is going to suit your needs. To make the best choice, focus your attention first on the right size and style of shed. 

Tailor the Size to Fit Your Space

The size of your shed should complement your backyard's dimensions while accommodating all your storage needs. Whether you're looking to shelter your lawnmower, gardening tools, or provide a new home for your fertilizers, it's essential to choose a size that aligns with both your space and storage requirements. Consider the size of your yard, the amount of space you’d like to have in your backyard after adding the shed, and also any requirements or restrictions that your land may have in terms of HOA regulations or city ordinances that may impact your shed build. 

The size of your shed should complement your backyard's dimensions while accommodating all your storage needs.

Consider the size of your yard, the amount of space you’d like to have in your backyard after adding the shed, and also any requirements or restrictions that your land may have in terms of HOA regulations or city ordinances that may impact your shed build. 

Beyond what size you can do, think about what size you may want to do. Opting for a larger shed can offer the added benefit of future-proofing your storage space, allowing room for additional items down the line. However, a smaller shed may help you to make the most of your yard space for gardening or for kids to play. From compact 8×8 sheds perfect for minimal storage to spacious 12×16 sheds designed for substantial equipment, here's how to choose the best size for your needs.

Choosing the Perfect Size Shed 

Compact Sheds (8×8, 8×10, 8×12): Ideal for small to medium-sized yards, these shed sizes are perfect for storing smaller garden tools, light yard equipment, or seasonal decorations. If you're looking to declutter your garage without taking up too much backyard space, these sizes offer an efficient solution. They provide just enough room to keep your essentials organized and accessible.

Medium Sheds (10×12, 12×12): For homeowners with more extensive storage needs, such as housing a riding mower, snow blower, or sports equipment, these shed sizes offer the perfect balance between space and functionality. They also allow for some workspace or shelving for those who want to double the shed as a hobby area or potting station. 

Large Sheds (12×16 and above): If you have a large backyard and need to store significant items like a small tractor or multiple large lawnmowers, or if you're considering creating a substantial workshop, hobby space, or even a man cave/she-shed, then opting for our larger shed sizes would be most beneficial. These sizes provide ample space for storage and movement within the shed, making them versatile for a variety of uses. 

Choose a Style That Fits Your Aesthetic 

As you probably already know, there are hundreds if not thousands of different shed styles and designs that you could choose from on the market. How can you know which one makes the most sense for you? Think about your goals. Would you like a shed to stand out and make a design statement in your yard or garden? Or maybe you’d like to opt for a shed that will blend in with your existing home style and not draw too much attention away from your home and landscaping. Whatever it is that you’d prefer, there is a shed out there that will accomplish your backyard shed dream.
