Even though the world is filled with technology, there are some things that haven’t changed. As a homeowner, you still have storage needs. Your riding mower doesn’t shrink yearly like the computer microchip. Your garden hoe looks much the same today as it did 50 years ago. And you still need a place to store all your other outdoor belongings.
You may think a 10×12 storage shed hasn’t changed much either, but have you looked lately? Specifically, have you looked at what’s available with us here at Sheds Unlimited? We’ll take an online walk through our 10×12 storage sheds for sale toward the end of this blog.
But for now, let’s look at this compact, economical, but highly useful storage shed and what it has to offer.
The 10×12 Storage Sheds in our collection for today are not the smallest shed you can find. If you want a truly miniature shed, you can always go for an 8×8 shed or even a 6×6 storage shed.
A 10×12 shed might be on the lower end of the size scale for storage sheds. Nevertheless, it is still large enough to store not only your riding mower, but your garden tiller, push mower, and a power washer as well. Keep in mind that if you plan to store heavier items in your shed, such as your riding mower, you may want to add a shed ramp to your shed. For more information on shed ramps, read our “Shed Ramps: A Comprehensive Overview” article. With a bit of planning and organization of wall space, you’ll have plenty of room for tools as well.
Use the wall and floor space in your 10×12 storage shed wisely.
Look at some of these great, low-cost ideas:
If space is at a premium in your backyard consider how small an area is needed for a 10×12 shed. 10×12 is roughly the size of a two compact cars side by side. 120 square feet. Get out a tape measure and see for yourself how easy it could fit in your yard.
Another factor to consider is transforming the yard around your shed. If you’re interested in shed landscaping, our “Shed Landscaping: 8 Styles, 8 Steps & More” article is a helpful resource.
If you want to fit more cubic storage space into these 120-square feet, consider going with one of the MaxiBarn or Gambrel portable storage buildings shown below.
Check with your local township, but in many cases, a building permit is not necessary with a smaller backyard shed such as the 10×12.
This can make getting a shed in place a much smaller hassle to deal with. Some townships do not require a permit, but might ask you to ensure the water runoff from the shed is contained in some way.
All that to say, it might still be important to check with your local town first.
Since there are fewer materials needed for a 10×12 storage shed, the cost will be less than a larger 12×20 shed. Go really economical and buy the economy shed and you could have a shed in your backyard for less than you would think. Read on to see prices.
Another thing you may want to consider is adding a few touches yourself. Here are some DIY possibilities:
Are you handy with basic carpenter tools? Love the feel of wood in your hands? Purchase a 10×12 storage shed kit. This also comes in handy if your backyard is not accessible from the roadway for normal shed delivery. You can assemble the shed yourself with the help of our Kit Instructional Video.
