Use this tool to quickly find the best shed size for your storage needs.
How to Use the Shed Size Calculator
This calculator helps you determine the size of the shed you need to store items. Fill in the length, width, and height in feet of your proposed shed, the number of items you need to store, the average volume per item, and any additional space requirements.
Explanation of Inputs
- Length, Width, Height: Dimensions of the shed you are planning to build or buy.
- Number of Items: Total number of items you need to store in the shed.
- Volume per Item: Average volume occupied by a single item in cubic feet.
- Additional Space Needed: Any extra space you might need for maneuverability, organization, or future storage.
How It Calculates
The calculator totals the volume required by multiplying the number of items by their individual volume. It then adds any additional space you have specified. Finally, it compares this total with the shed’s volume (length * width * height) to determine if the proposed shed will be sufficient.
Limitations
The calculator assumes all items are a uniform size and does not account for irregular shapes. If items vary significantly in size or shape, consider using a larger shed to accommodate varying spatial requirements.
