With how much clutter is accumulating at home, a simple garden shed won’t do. The barn shed that actually solves your storage crunch is a true two-story structure you can walk around in, delivered and professionally installed through Costco’s member-only Costco Next program.
Why this barn shed changes the game
Goliath by Gorilla is a two-level design with stairs, 8-foot sidewalls, and generous windows that bring in daylight. Sizes range from 16’×16′ up to 16’×32′, so you can match the footprint to your yard and storage goals. You’re not just tucking things away; you’re creating zones—gear below, creativity above.
Goliath is engineered for everyday life: LP® SmartSide® exterior for durability, strong floor decking, and framing built to take real loads. The second story is the star—you can turn it into a quiet office, maker studio, teen hangout, or a calm workout space.
Upgrades include a vented skylight, ridge vent, extra windows, shelving, ramps, and even a cupola for that classic barn look. Pricing typically starts around $13,999.99 with delivery and installation included, and there’s an optional permit service if you want help with paperwork.
This barn shed does more than swallow yard gear. It gives you vertical organization downstairs (tall sidewalls are a dream for rakes and ladders) and a clean, bright room upstairs that separates hobby time from household noise. The result is a tidier home, a calmer garage, and a flexible space that changes with your life—today’s craft room can become tomorrow’s study zone.
What “Costco Next” means for your order
Costco Next is a curated portal for members to buy direct from selected brands at special member value. For Gorilla, that means your barn shed is purchased on the partner site but still includes the big conveniences: shipping and professional installation are built into the price. No hunting down contractors, no mystery labor quotes—just configure, schedule, and get it done.
A trained crew handles the build on your prepared site, so the heavy lifting isn’t on you. Basic leveling is part of the package, and you can opt into additional leveling if your yard slopes more than you thought. Your barn shed arrives as a coordinated project: you pick the size and color, confirm site access, and the team takes it from there. Note: installation isn’t currently offered in Florida.
Permits and HOA: quick checklist before you buy
Because it’s a two-story barn shed, you should check local rules early. Many places allow small, single-story accessory structures with minimal red tape, but multi-story designs, larger footprints (often over 120–200 sq ft), permanent foundations, and any utilities (electric or plumbing) usually require a permit. HOAs commonly ask for architectural approval covering placement, height, siding, roofing, and color. Use this fast checklist:
- Get your HOA’s guidelines and submit the product specs.
- Confirm setbacks from property lines and any height cap; place the barn shed accordingly.
- Decide if you want power or climate control; utilities typically trigger additional permits.
- Ask about foundation requirements in your jurisdiction.
How to buy (only through Costco Next)
You won’t find Goliath in the warehouse aisle. Start at Costco’s Gorilla page on Costco Next, click through, and configure your size, shingles, and upgrades on the partner site. Schedule your consultation, confirm site access and local rules, and select the barn shed delivery window that fits your calendar. It’s a streamlined path to a backyard upgrade, backed by Costco’s curated partner program.
If your household doesn’t vibe with Marie Kondo’s Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up (some people find that all their belongings spark joy, or simply don’t feel like discarding big items that are not going to be used until next year), getting a Goliath barn shed by Gorilla will keep up with the storage needs of the average American household. You don’t live in a 300 sq feet Tokyo apartment why not take advantage of your backyard? You and your family deserve it, after all!
