The 8×12 Garden Shed is where most suburban homeowners settle when 8×10 fills up too fast and 10×12 feels bigger than the yard wants — 96 square feet that holds a push mower, a workbench run on one long wall, and a season’s worth of patio cushions in the corner. The double-door front opening clears the mower easily, and the extra 2ft of length over the 8×10 is what turns one wall into a usable bench instead of a hook rail. The 8ft width keeps the building tight against side-yard setbacks. Common adds at this footprint: a side window over the bench, a flower box under the front window, and paint matched to house trim — all picked at the dealer. This size is part of our Garden Shed line; if the mower upsizes, related sizes include 10×12 and 10×16. See dealers near you for delivery and pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an 8×12 Garden Shed cost?
An 8×12 Garden Shed (96 sq ft) costs $3,999 cash, delivered fully assembled by your local Cook dealer. That price is for the standard building; options are quoted by your dealer.
What can fit in an 8×12 shed?
An 8×12 shed gives you 96 sq ft (8 ft by 12 ft) and 6'3" sidewalls — room for potting shed, playhouse and small storage.
Is an 8×12 shed delivered assembled?
Yes — an 8×12 shed is built at the factory and delivered fully assembled, usually in 7–10 working days. You will need about 14 ft of clear access width for the delivery truck and a reasonably level spot.
What base does an 8×12 shed need?
An 8×12 shed needs a level base at least 8 ft by 12 ft — a compacted gravel pad is the most common choice. Level ground protects the floor and keeps the doors square; your dealer reviews the site before delivery.
Do I need a permit for an 8×12 shed?
Whether an 8×12 shed needs a permit depends on your local building codes, not on Cook — check with your city or county before you buy. Cook provides building plans you can submit with your permit application.
How does the 8×12 Garden Shed compare to the 10×12?
An 8×12 gives you 96 sq ft — 24 sq ft less than the 10×12 (120 sq ft) at the same 8 ft width, and about $600 more. Choose the 8×12 for a smaller footprint, or size up for extra length.
Can I customize an 8×12 Garden Shed?
Yes — design an 8×12 in Cook's 3D configurator: choose siding and trim colors, place doors and windows, add a heavy-duty floor, then request a quote.
