Off-Loading Your Building

Off-Loading Your Building

Off-Loading with a Forklift

For safety purposes, we recommend that forks on lift meet a minimum requirement of 8 ft. in length. The forks must also be able to reach completely underneath the building. For buildings 12’ feet long or less, we recommend single fork-lift offloading. Longer buildings may require the use of two fork-lifts.

Use Caution

BUILDING IS UNSTABLE DURING OFF-LOADING

Off-Loading with a Crane

As specific building weights will vary due to unique accessories and components, please consult your sales engineer to determine the final weight of your storage locker. When determining delivery of your building with certified crane operator, advise the operator of the building’s exact dimensions (L x W x H) and final structure weight.

Use Caution

BUILDING IS UNSTABLE DURING OFF-LOADING AND THE CENTER OF GRAVITY MAY NOT BE AT THE GEOMETRICAL CENTER OF THE BUILDING WHEN LIFTED.
