One of the most common questions asked of log home companies is
"How much will the trucking cost?" Obviously, the farther the travel distance,
the more the cost. On average, shipping can range between $750 and $2,500,
depending on your distance from our plant. Usually, the entire average home can
be transported in one shipment. We will do our best to contain these costs for
you with respect to shipping.
Please judge these costs against the bigger picture. Some companies
will offer you "free" shipping. In these cases, it is likely that the freight
charges are already built into the price of the kit. We all have to pay for
shipping somewhere along the line, whether it's mailing a box of clothes to a
new college freshman, or trucking a complete log home to a customer six states
away.
We say all of that to now say this.....When comparing prices,
first choose good products, and then compare total costs, including both
materials and freight. If someone is telling you that shipping is free,
or already included in the price, so be it. Use common
sense and look at the dollar figure at the bottom, no matter how they arrived at
it.
We realize that nobody likes surprises that cost them more money, and
sales transactions will run more smoothly if everyone knows all costs up front.
