If you have purchased a steel building you should be in contact with your steel building manufacturer or supplier to ensure that you understand all aspects of the delivery process as accords your building. Your building will be delivered to your job site once the design and fabrication has been completed at the factory. This is normally handled by a third-party carrier although some steel building companies will deliver with their own trucks. The building order documentation determines the delivery arrangements for your structure. Any special accommodations needed for shipping need to be determined before purchase of the building as this may affect the overall price. Any changes in shipping arrangements close to the time of scheduled shipment can be expensive to you, the purchaser.
The factory that ships the building will be responsible for all shipping arrangements. A common carrier is going to be the most likely mode of transportation. They will be responsible for the receipt of your steel building at the factory and the subsequent transport and delivery of your structure in good and complete order to your job site. Unless you have given written authorization to subcontractor at your work site it is the purchaser’s responsibility to receive all of the materials.
The steel building supplier will normally be responsible for all of the shipping arrangements to the address specified on the building’s shipping order.
