How do I inventory the steel roofing and siding when it comes in big bundles?
The steel roofing and siding for your building will be in one or more large bundles (or skids). Whenever possible, the bundle should remain crated until it is located in its place of storage. Then, in the presence of the driver, break the bands – at a minimum – and lift up the cover sheet to inspect for any damage. If no damage is present, re-bundle. We also recommend you have the steel truck driver go through the steel trims with you to identify the pieces. When you sign the driver’s paperwork, please sign “not inspected for quantity or damage”. (If you notice any obvious damage in the presence of the driver, please note such on the paperwork.) In this manner, the driver is not held up and you can do a complete and precise inventory after his departure.
