Protect Tractors, Harvesters and Farm Equipment
A vineyard sprayer or header left out through a Margaret River winter takes a beating: salt air corrosion near the coast, moisture ingress inland around Cowaramup and Treeton, and UV breakdown on seals and hydraulics year-round.
A properly sized machinery shed protects that investment and keeps resale value intact when it’s time to upgrade. Most of our machinery shed clients are protecting equipment worth more than the shed itself, so we design around the equipment first, not the other way round.

Why Choose Westspan for Your Farm Machinery Shed
Farming operations across the Margaret River wine region and the dairy and livestock country around Busselton need different things from a machinery shed.
A vineyard operation is usually storing a header, sprayer and mixed light equipment.
A dairy or livestock property is often storing machinery alongside hay and feed.
We design the shed around what you’re actually storing, not a standard layout.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What size machinery shed do I need?
The ideal size depends on your current equipment fleet and future expansion plans. We recommend allowing at least 1.5 metres of clearance around each piece of machinery for safe access. Our team can assess your specific requirements during an initial consultation and recommend appropriate dimensions
2. How long does it take to build a farm machinery shed?
Construction timeframes vary based on size and complexity, but typically range from 3-6 weeks after approvals. Weather conditions and site preparation requirements may affect the schedule. We provide detailed timelines during the quoting process.
3. Do I need council approval for a farm machinery shed?
Yes, most farm machinery sheds require council approval. Requirements vary between local government areas, but our team handles the entire approval process, including preparation of all necessary documentation and liaison with council authorities.
4. What foundation options are available?
We offer several foundation systems, including concrete slabs, pier footings, and concrete perimeter footings with compacted gravel infill. The best option depends on your soil conditions, budget, and intended use. Our team can recommend the most suitable foundation for your specific requirements.
5. Can you incorporate additional features like workshops or storage areas?
Absolutely. Many of our clients opt for integrated designs that include dedicated workshop spaces, secure storage areas, or office facilities within their machinery shed. We can design partitioned areas with specific features like insulation, power, lighting, and security systems to create a multifunctional agricultural building.
6. Will my machinery shed need to meet bushfire (BAL) requirements?
If your property is in a mapped Bushfire Attack Level zone, common around Yallingup, Wilyabrup and parts of the Margaret River region, your shed design may need to meet specific construction requirements. You can check your property’s zoning on the City of Busselton’s IntraMaps tool before you build. Our ShedSafe certified designs are built with BAL compliance in mind, so this doesn’t hold up your approval.
