“It was a very simple process to say this is the size and dimensions and then the guys at AUSPAN put that into motion and had it designed and built for us in no time. Made the decision to build a hay shed and had it standing within 8 weeks.”
Sam Macnamara
“Some of what AUSPAN add to their sheds are other peoples optional extras which end up costing the same amount anyway.”
Wayne Pech
“Very happy with how everything went. We were kept informed on how all was being done as project went along. All options were put forward to work out what was the best shed for us. Was very happy with how quick and detailed quoting was done. Wasn’t left wondering about anything. The shed has paid for itself in 2 years!”
Steve Atwell
“Overall experience I would rate as very good, they were very adaptable to challenges we had at the time. They were very easy to work with. The shed is very good, it has no structural issues and it has made our storing of machines very easy.”
David Imberti
“What they said they were gonna do they followed through on it there were no if’s or buts. What they said they stuck to and that’s the way I like business to be done. We signed the contract one day a fortnight later the shed was here and 3 days later it was built.”

Frequently asked questions
Before your shed can be built you will need to prepare a pad for the shed to go on.
Pick a naturally level site to minimize the earthworks required and a site that isn’t subject to flooding, not too close to trees, power lines, location of underground services, consider access to power and water etc. if required for the shed.
We have seen a trend over the past years of the sheds being built higher. The typical clearance height for workshop and machinery sheds is between 6m and 7.5m high.
The lead-time from ordering your new farm shed from AUSPAN to having it installed would typically be around two months. This may change depending on workload and the scope involved for the project – concrete works, council considerations etc.
You may check all our projects, both finished and in progress, by clicking here.
A good shed pad is level, compacted and has at least 3m of extra prepared pad area around the shed. For a good long term shed pad, you would normally need to have 300mm or more of compacted gravel on top of the levelled natural ground.
