Understanding Metal Building Delivery:
The delivery of your metal building is a crucial step in the construction process. At Ardent Building Systems, we take great care to coordinate and execute deliveries with precision to meet your timeline and expectations. Whether you’re receiving a pre-engineered steel building, pre-engineered carport or components for assembly, our goal is to ensure everything arrives safely and on schedule.
What to Expect on Delivery Day:
- Coordination and Communication: Prior to delivery day, our team will communicate with you to confirm details such as delivery time, location, and any specific requirements. Clear communication is key to a successful delivery process.
- Obtaining Proper Equipment for Unloading: Prior to your delivery, you’ll receive an erection manual for your building. Within this erection manual, more details for what equipment is needed to unload your building is included. Often times, a reach truck or crane can be used to unload all components, but this varies by order. If a reach truck/telehandler is needed, one can be rented from a supplier near you such as United Rentals or Sunbelt Rentals.
- Arrival of Delivery Truck: On the scheduled day, you can expect a delivery truck to arrive at your site. Our drivers are experienced in navigating various types of terrain and will work with you to determine the best placement for unloading. You may receive a call from your delivery driver prior to their arrival.
- Unloading Process: Once the delivery truck arrives, you or your contractors will begin unloading the building components from the truck. Depending on the size and complexity of your project, this process may take some time, but having the right equipment will make this process a breeze.
- Inspection and Sign-Off: Before the driver leaves the site, you’ll need to conduct a thorough inspection of the delivered components to ensure everything meets your expectations. We encourage you to inspect the materials as well and raise any concerns or questions you may have before the driver leaves.
- Next Steps: With the delivery complete, you’re one step closer to bringing your metal building project to life! Our team will be available to assist you with any additional support or guidance you may need as you move forward with construction.
