Shipping of Kits
Most gazebo, playhouse, and shed kits are shipped by common carrier on a pallet. Drivers are not required to unload the kit, although some will help. So do you need a forklift? Well if you have one that would be great, but it is not necessary. Most of our customers simply cut the bands holding the parts of the kit on the pallet and unload it piece by piece. Most kits do not have any single part is more than 60 pounds and can be unloaded by one person. We advise that you have a friend or two around to help with the job.

In many locations there is an alternative for playhouses and sheds. The trucking company can send the kit out on a truck equipped with a lift gate. This is a hydraulic "elevator" that can be used to lower the pallet from the truck to the ground. Lift gate service cost an extra $95 and is not available at all locations and typically cannot be used for gazebo kits. If the service is not available, we will refund the charge.
