-
How much space does the delivery truck need?For steel buildings you can expect a pickup truck with a 30' long goose-neck trailer. They do need to be able to get within 50 feet of the building location. For built on site sheds: We need street space to park the truck and trailer. Materials will be carried to your back yard. For pre-built sheds: If needed, the driver can unload the building before the final location and use the mechanical MULE (shed mover) to manuever the building into the final position. You still need the required clearances to fit the building, but the truck doesn't have to fit there, just the building. For finished cabins: The truck needs access to the building pad. Typically if the cabin can fit, so can the truck!
-
Why should I buy from you when I can get a building online or from a big box store?Two reasons: ​ 1. Typically we are the same price or cheaper than online or big box. If not we will work to either match your price or show you why the price is different and what advantages the difference gets you. 2. You have a local, dedicated person with whom to interact rather than a faceless company. We're on your side to make sure you get the building you need. We know our business and the area and can help you with everything from concrete needs to land clearing and electrical contractors.
-
Can I return my rent-to-own building or trade it up to a larger size?You can return your rent-to-own building at any time by contacting the rental company and requesting it be returned. To trade up or down in size, you first return your old building and order a new one of the appropriate size and start a new RTO contract on that unit.
-
How do your prices compare to other shed companies?Typically our steel frame building prices are less expensive than online carport outlets. We are also typically the same or sllightly less for an apples to apples quote from other local dealers. Our local factory keeps overhead low and that lets us pass the savings on to you while still deliverying the best in design, quality and creative options. If you find a lower price on a carport, bring it in and we will compare it apples to apples to make sure you've been quoted correctly. And we will either match it or declare that you've found an amazing deal and should go for it. Honestly we've helped many people avoid costly mistakes when pricing buildings from online dealers. Our wood frame barns and sheds are also competitive with other companies. We invite you to compare quality and prices between us and other portable storage options to see how we truly offer the best value at an affordable price. The Defender series sheds are the best built units around at a price that is often way below what you get from the big box sheds and big name companies. Have a competing quote? Bring it in and we will see what we can do to match it.
-
What is a "Repo" building?"A repo building is a building that has been returned from rent-to-own. The rent to own company owns the unit and sets the price for which we sell it. Typically a repo building sells for less than a comparable new unit. However repo units are sold as-is with no warranty.
