Delivery day is the moment every new portable building owner looks forward to. Whether you’ve purchased a storage shed, workshop, or backyard garage from Willow Prairie Portable Buildings, knowing what to expect ensures a smooth, stress-free experience.
Here’s a clear guide to what happens on shed delivery day, so you can be fully prepared and enjoy your building from the very first moment.
1. Pre-Delivery Confirmation
Before the delivery team arrives, our transport company will:
Confirm the date of delivery (We cannot guarantee an exact window of time... You are receiving a BUILDING and not a small package after all!)
AND YOUR DELIVERY DRIVER WILL...
Review the exact placement location on your property
Discuss any special instructions, like gate clearance or driveway access
This ensures there are no surprises on delivery day and your building goes exactly where you want it.
2. Site Check and Prep
When the delivery team arrives, they’ll do a final check of your property:
Confirm the ground is level and cleared
Check for obstacles such as branches, rocks, or low-hanging wires
Make sure access for the delivery vehicle is adequate
Your site must be ready prior to delivery. If the driver has to return, you will likely be charged an additional fee for the unsuccessful attempt.
3. Placement of Your Shed
The delivery driver will then:
Bring the building to your property using specialized equipment
Carefully place the building on its prepared base or foundation
Ensure it is level and aligned exactly as you planned
Professional placement protects your shed from long-term settling, tilting, or drainage issues.
4. Final Walkthrough
After the shed is positioned:
The driver will walk you through the building
Point out doors, windows, and locks
Make sure you’re satisfied with placement and condition
This step guarantees that your shed is ready for immediate use and that any questions are addressed on the spot.
5. Enjoy Your New Space
Once delivery is complete, your shed is ready to:
Organize tools and equipment
Create a backyard workshop or hobby space
Store seasonal decorations and household items
Free up garage or basement space
Many homeowners feel instant relief and satisfaction — a clean, organized property is just a delivery away!
