Panelized Kits: The Shed comes in large panelized sections. Recommended for most users as it is easier to assemble and saves you significant time. Each panel is perfectly square & ready to assemble! All hardware and screws are included.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
You are required to offload the shipment – either a forklift or 2-3 people on the day of the delivery to manually unload the pieces on the pallet one by one. Each individual piece weighs around 1-100 lbs. so it is fairly easy to do with 2-3 people. Some customers have friends/neighbors/family assist, or hire 2 people. FedEx will schedule the delivery date and time that works for you.
