AUSPAN made the whole process really easy for us. They were quick to respond, gave us clear cost estimates whenever we looked at changes, and guided us through what would work best. We ended up with a four-court stadium the kids absolutely love — and we’re now the envy of other associations.

At AUSPAN, we’re proud to have delivered another successful project for Direct Freight Express. From feasibility to final handover, the collaboration between our team and theirs was seamless. This facility in Kenwick reflects our shared commitment to practical design, build quality, and long-term performance.
Ben McConkey
This project really showcases what’s possible when modern dairy technology meets local shed-building expertise. From early planning through to completion, we focused on creating a structure that not only fit Mark’s operational needs but also future-proofed his investment.
With a 50-metre lean-to for added functionality and 38 metres of ridge ventilation, the end result is a purpose-built, high-performance dairy shed—strong, efficient, and designed to last.
Isaac Smith
The overall experience was easy, really. Once we’d determined the size and design, the process was seamless, and I was kept informed the whole way through. The quality of the materials is outstanding — it’s a substantial structure that’s built to last. Every time I drive past, I feel proud knowing it’s something that’ll stand strong for years.

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 can view all our projects here, both finished and in progress.
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.
