Hay
Storage Sheds

Building a hay shed is a great way to protect your hay from the elements and keep it dry. We have listed below a few very important factors to consider when building a new shed.

Bale Storage Size

When building a hay shed, one of the key considerations is the size of the bales you need to store. The size of the bale affects the amount of space you need for storage, as well as the number of bales you can fit in a given area.

• The type of hay you will be storing

• Size of your property

• The number of animals you need to feed

Once you have an idea of the size of bale you need, you can start planning the size of your hay shed accordingly. At Grid Construction we will calculate this for you to maximise your bale storage and ensure you get the best value for your money.

Location

The location of your hay shed is also a very important factor. Below are some of the reasons why the location is so important.

• Access to the shed during bad weather

• Will the location provide the appropriate drainage?

• Access for our equipment to build the new shed

Storm water Storage

If you have a medium to large hay shed you may be able to catch thousands of litres of fresh water each year. This also provides a valuable way of keeping water away from your hay.

Council Approvals

Gaining council approval for your new hay shed can be a difficult job and very time-consuming. Grid Constructions will take care of this for you by providing the necessary building plans to submit for council approval.
