How To Choose Perfect Trekk Shed: Your Guide to Space, Budget, Use & Aesthetics 

There’s so much that goes into choosing the right shed – from your location, the size of your backyard, where you intend to place it and more! All the considerations can be overwhelming, that’s why we have set out the perfect guide to help you choose the right Trekk Shed for your space! 

We believe a shed is more than just a storage space, it’s a fundamental part of your backyard and so finding the perfect shed to fit the space and serve the purpose you need is critical. Instead of choosing a flimsy metal or brittle plastic shed that has no style and doesn’t function well, Trekk Sheds are premium timber spaces that come in a range of styles to suit your backyard and your needs. Your Trekk Shed will become so much more than just storage – it’ll be the star of your backyard!  

Before deciding on a shed, the first thing you need to do is determine how much space you have available in your yard. Start by measuring your yard and assessing the space you’d like to put the shed; this will also help you to decide on the final location for it. You then can map out the size of the shed and assess it for access. It’s important to consider if there’s enough room for the doors to fully open without blocking paths or other structures. 

The dimensions of all Trekk Sheds are readily available on our website so mapping it out in your space is easy. From here, think about what you plan to store in your shed and if that is going to work with the space you’ve just mapped out and the access required. You’ll also want to consider landscaping and things such as paths and gardens around the shed and what this might look like. 

When it comes to building a shed there are a number of factors to consider and naturally budget is one of them. A shed is an investment in your property, it’s not the sort of item that you want to have to buy multiple times and so it’s important to consider quality when deciding on your budget for your shed purchase. 

Trekk Sheds are made from Nordic Spruce, ensuring durability and longevity. They come with premium hardware and fixings and have factory applied undercoat. They are strong and designed to stand the test of time.

Consider how you plan to use your shed. Here are a few ways our customer uses their Trekk Sheds: 

  • General Storage: For general storage needs, customers found that the Overland or Grampian Sheds provided ample space to keep their belongings safe and organised. These two sheds also differ in size, so no matter the size of the space available, there is a smaller and larger option worked well. 
  • Workshop or Hobby Space: If you’re looking for a space to pursue an outdoor hobby or DIY project, our Taranaki or Kepler Sheds offer a spacious interior to fit tools and benches. These sheds also have windows, filling the space with natural light, the perfect place to spend the afternoon! 
  • Sports and Outdoor Equipment: Store bikes, surfboards, camping gear and even pool equipment in a Trekk Shed, with wide double doors and extra headroom making it easier than ever to bring things in and out! The Grampian or the Flinders sheds are perfect for storing any outdoor equipment no matter the side of your yard.
