Introducing Your New Backyard Structure
When you choose Shawnee Structures for your shed, garage, pergola, or pavilion needs, you can count on our skilled installation team to handle the delivery with professionalism. Our team is known for their friendliness, strong work ethic, and dedication to customer satisfaction.
Here’s what you should know about the delivery for your new backyard addition.
What to Expect
Once you’ve made your selection and placed an order for your backyard structure, we’ll provide you with a rough estimate of the delivery timeline. During this period, we’ll also give you instructions for any necessary site preparation.
Once your structure is ready, we’ll reach out to you to coordinate the installation schedule. We prioritize working around your availability to find the most suitable time for our team to transport and install your structure. Please be aware that in case of adverse weather conditions, we may need to reschedule the installation for a later date.
Preparing for Your Structure
Your new storage structure requires a firm foundation to support the structure. You are responsible for having the site prepared before your structure’s delivery date.
Here are a few recommendations for site preparation.
Clearance for Delivery
To deliver your new structure, we will need an unobstructed path to the final location. Make sure it is clear of tree limbs and other obstacles. We will need clearance of at least 15’ vertically, and 2’ wider than the structure.
Gravel Pad
Gravel pad should be 2′ longer and wider than the structure and within 1″ of level.
- Example 1: A 14 x 24 garage requires a 16 x 26 level gravel pad.
- Example 2: A 24 x 24 garage requires a 26 x 26 level gravel pad.
*If gravel is not level, it can cause the doors and windows to malfunction. (This will void our warranty).
Finished Gravel Pad
We recommend your gravel pad be approximately 4”-6” deep. In Pennsylvania, the stone is typically called 2B or 2B modified. In Maryland and West Virginia, quarries often call them #53 stones.
From Our Happy Customers
“We can’t say enough about how great the delivery team was! Coming into our purchase, our biggest concern was the delivery. We worried about the narrow roads in our area, many sharp turns, and our driveway is a tight spot for the 15’x28’ garage but Daryl was very nice and accommodating to all of the requests we had. And Ethan was great, he made this difficult delivery look EASY!”
The Delivery Process
Storage Sheds and Garages are delivered with 4 Wheel Drive Truck with custom built shed hauling trailers.
