Free delivery?
If you buy a building it will have to be delivered to your site, or built on your site. As for delivery, don't be fooled by claims of "no delivery fees"! You will be charged a delivery fee, whether it is included in the cost of the building, or charged separately. Fuel and labor are not free, and the cost will be passed on to you in one form or another.If you are looking at two or more companies, free delivery claims should not be the deciding factor. The deciding factor should be value. What you need to determine is the value of the building, and that will be determined by the buildings long term suitability, and the final price. A building made of inferior materials, with poor workmanship will cost you a lot more in maintenance down the road, free delivery or not!
Delivery and placement planning
As for the actual physical delivery, there are a few things that will need a little attention:
- You will probably be asked to give directions when you make your purchase.
- You will also be asked about the surroundings and final placement, and how the building should be oriented on the truck for proper placement.
- Being certain that the route to your house is clear of low hanging limbs or lines will be of tremendous help to your delivery driver.
- Plan for such things as fences, gates, or any other impediments to delivery.
- Know the exact spot where you want your building to be placed ahead of time.
- The delivery crew will level the building on the spot, but the ground should be reasonably level before delivery.
