How Far Does My Shed Have to Be From The Boundary or Fence?

Regulations depend on a number of things, including the height of the shed and the purpose the shed is being used for.

Below are some common situations:

Domestic Sheds

Backyard sheds need to be 15 centimetres from the boundary unless they are over 3.6 metres high.
Sheds above this height need to be 1 metre from the boundary/fence. This distance increases with the height of the shed.

Farm Sheds

Farm sheds (like hay sheds & machinery sheds) need to be 5 metres from the boundary.
The shed must also be at least 100 metres from any highways, if they happen to be nearby. They must also be 20 metres from any other road.
