Lone Star Portables // Frequently Asked Questions // Wood Models
Q: How much are your buildings?
A: We offer a wide range of building options and sizes for each. Pricing varies by region and state because of regulations, hauling restrictions, shipping costs and associated material costs. Contact your local dealer for details on pricing in your area, or request a brochure here.
Q: Your brochure states 'Free Delivery', but I live far away from where I saw the buildings. How far is too far?
A: We offer free delivery up to 50 miles from our closest dealer to the point of delivery. You do not have to order the building from the closest dealer to qualify for free delivery. If you are beyond the 50 mile radius, please contact the sales rep for the state in which you live to give you an accurate cost.
Q: I would like to add a window to a building and change where the door is located. Can I customize the building?
A: Absolutely! All of our buildings are completely customizable. We have a standard placement for doors and windows, but if you would like an additional door, window, roll-up, etc., we can easily accommodate. We can add or take away just about anything you would want, as long as it doesn’t compromise the integrity of the building.
Q: Do I need good credit for the Rent-to-Own option?
A: WE DO NOT DO CREDIT CHECKS! We offer an affordable alternative to buying your portable building by signing a 36 or 48 month rent-to-own contract. A small security deposit and/or your first month’s rent is all that is due to get a building delivered to you!
Q: I ordered a building. When should I expect it to be delivered?
A: Our buildings are typically delivered within 20 to 25 days from the date we receive your order. Weather conditions and the demand of the season may affect delivery.
Q: Do I need specific foundation for my building?
The only requirement is a general level location for your building to sit on (we will level the building up to 18″). Our buildings are designed to rest directly on their skids. In order to level the building we use treated wood blocks. If you would like to have your building on concrete blocks, we only require that you provide the blocks.
Q: What if my new building will not fit through my gate or around my fence?
A: Premier requires that your site be ready for delivery, and is not responsible for making alterations to fences or other barriers. If you have questions about your site, contact your local dealer or sales rep here.
Q: How much space should be allowed to deliver a building?
A: A vertical space of 14′, measured from the ground to the top of the building when it is on the trailer, is required. Be sure to take any tree branches and utility wires into account. While our drivers are very skilled with a Mule, he will still need a minimum of 1′ of space to maneuver the building through an opening. That is, a building 12′ wide will require a 14-foot wide space (1 foot on each side).
Q: Do I need to have permits for my building?
A: You are responsible for contacting your local city and county agencies in regard to zoning, permits, setbacks, and covenants. Also, it is recommended that you contact your Home Owners Association (if applicable) to determine what neighborhood rules and regulations may be apply.
