Shed Moving

Delivering Your New Building

Delivery of your storage building is free within 50 miles of our location at 3130 US 220, Madison NC. A modest fuel fee of $5.00 per mile delivered over 50 miles will be applied at the time of purchase.

During the purchase process your advisor will help you determine the best options for preparing the site and placement of your building. We will even send our team in advance of delivery to help you determine the perfect spot and even to help determine the best size building for your property—free of charge.

Delivery Process
House of Stars will contact you to schedule a delivery date and time. Delivery is usually made within a few days of purchase for in-stock buildings or can be set for a later date at your convenience. Custom ordered buildings typically arrive at the House of Stars within two weeks, and you will be contacted with an invitation to inspect your building prior to scheduling delivery.

It is recommended that you be present when your building arrives. If you are unable to be present, we ask that you have the shed location marked with the flags we provide.

Site Preparation
There are just a few things you will want to have done in advance for a successful delivery. Clearing the pathway of low hanging limbs, obstacles, and stumps allows us to safely place your building. Keep in mind that the delivery team will need a clear path for access—2 ft. wider than your building and 14 ft. high.

• Identify low wires, branches, and septic tanks.
• If you have a fence, there should be at least 2 feet clearance to move the building through. If required, portions of the fence and posts should be removed before delivery.
• Delivery personnel have the right to refuse installation to any site they determine unsafe or inaccessible.
• If you plan to put a purchased building on another’s property, you will need to provide written proof of the property owner’s consent.
• If it is required to go on a neighbor’s property during the delivery process, you are responsible for obtaining permission, and you are liable for any damages to any landscaping, yard, fence, septic systems, etc.
• If the site is not ready, and for any reason the delivery team is unable to complete the delivery and must return later, a $200 fee is required to have the building re-delivered.
• You are responsible for all permits and zoning requirements. Permit and zoning regulations in North Carolina apply to any building with a side greater than 12 ft. In Virginia, any building 240 square feet or greater is regulated by permit and zoning regulations.
• A level site for your building is important. We use concrete blocks to level and for any building higher than 24”, anchoring for your safety is recommended.

We also recommend you anchor buildings where you plan to store small tractors, motorcycles, and heavier four runners. If you are unsure whether you need anchors at the time of purchase, our team can help at time of delivery.
