Small industrial sheds. Direct from owner.

Small industrial sheds in Cairns

Cairns is our main market. Most of the businesses on our register want somewhere between 80m² and 200m², with a roller door they can back a ute or a trailer into, and a rent that works for a small operating business rather than a national tenant.

That size band is the part of the market that is hardest to find. Larger sheds get built and marketed. Small ones get held, sublet informally, or never come up at all.

SmallSheds owns and manages properties for its own portfolio. We do not act as a real estate agency and we do not list property for third-party owners.

What we buy here

What we are looking for in Cairns

  • Freehold industrial sites across the established Cairns industrial suburbs
  • Buildings with more than one roller door, or a layout that can be split into separate tenancies
  • Yard, hardstand or spare land alongside the building
  • Older or under-utilised property where the current use does not match what the site can do

Who registers from here

The businesses asking us

Trades and service businesses make up most of it: electricians, plumbers, builders, cabinetmakers, mechanics and mobile operators who have outgrown a garage. After that it is storage, small manufacturing and online businesses that need somewhere to hold stock and pack orders.

Registering does not commit you to anything and it does not mean we have a shed for you today. It tells us where to buy next.
