DELIVERY & SETUP

As a general rule we typically deliver 75 miles from our Office Lot at 10040 Tri-County Hwy, Winchester, Oh. 45697 included in the price of our buildings, unless otherwise stated. We do offer extended delivery up to 150 miles for an additional cost of $7 a mile over 75 miles.

Our Delivery Team will CONFIRM the delivery date with you. All delivery dates given at time of ordering are our best estimate at time of ordering. Our team will confirm delivery after the building is built and ready to deliver and you will know exactly when it is coming. 

RECOMMENDED SITE PREPARATIONS

Pressure Treated Shipping Rails: 

Your structure may be placed directly on the ground due to the pressure treated 4x6s. This is possible but not recommended. We recommend concrete blocks at a minimum. 

Concrete Blocks: 

Most people place their building on blocks. You will need a minimum of 1 block per foot of building length. Example: 12x20 would need 20 blocks.  In order to avoid a large step into the shed, we recommend you use 2″ or 4″ concrete blocks or dig the blocking into the ground near ground level.

Stone Pads: 

Your structure may be set on a 4″ deep pad of 3/4″ clean or 2B stones (1/2″-1″). This is stone without powder/dust mixture. The reason is that the dust eventually washes away and may cause additional settling. In order to inhibit weeds and deter moisture, we recommend that the stone perimeter extend 12″ beyond your structure perimeter. Do not store mulch or topsoil against the side of your structure. A stone pad can be installed by framing with landscape timbers or 4x6s and then filling flush with stone, or by digging out 4″ of soil and installing ground level stone.

Concrete Pads: 

Your structure may be set on a concrete pad. When installing your concrete pad, keep your pad as close to ground level as possible.

Proper Care: 

Given proper care your structure will exceed its lifespan. Moisture is the enemy. Airflow is the solution. Do not set anything against the exterior of your structure for extended periods of time. Do not plant flowers, shrubs, or trees directly next to your structure.

Site Preparation: 

An existing reasonably level site is required to set your structure properly. If your site is not level your doors will not operate properly and the overall structure will not hold its integrity while settling.

Site Accessibility: 

Power lines, trees, tree branches, rocks, fences, posts, mailboxes, other buildings, and anything in the way of the truck or placement are your responsibility to move. Prior to delivery, please clear the path to your structure’s foundation. Doing so will help cut down time on the delivery process.  

Ground Conditions: 

The ground must be hard enough for the delivery company to drive on to accomplish the job. If the truck/trailer gets stuck, you will be responsible for the tow truck expense. We will not be responsible for any ruts, tire marks, or any damage caused by normal delivery.
