      Besides the fact that there sheds take weeks to build with no communication on status or delivery, and contact with anyone that knows anything about your building is obsolete, the delivery process and actual delivery was horrible. The communication with them was always initiated by me, the times i was told would get a call back never happened. finally got a date and was told it would be delivered between 10-2 and please confirm. i confirmed the date and time. delivery day shows up i initiate contact again because it is already passed 2 and nothing. told they are still on road need to stop somewhere first then will come. Now it is evening about 8 pm it is raining and slightly snowing, so i am thinking they will reschedule possibly for morning. They show up it dark and raining. first they have trouble getting shed off of the truck. Now i was told when originally got the shed that it can be put where i wanted it, described location where i wanted, and wasnt a problem, its actually not a hard location theres good access and room for this not
      very big shed. finally get shed off truck and start taking it back with there small lift they use to move it. take it back to where it needs to go but he backs it in with lift head first when he should of pushed it in and turned it into location, complaining that the ground is too soft and they cant really see, well ya its raining and its dark this is when you decided to delivery it! give a half *** attempt to move it where I want it and tell me it cant be done but proceeds to tell me step by step how I can do it myself. I then say delivery and leveling of the shed was part of the purchase, proceeds to tell me he can put it over there in the middle of my yard and level it, yes I want this shed smack dab in the middle of my yard, ***?! they left shed where they dropped it and left. next day left message to delivery company got no call back. ended up setting and leveling shed myself. place is a joke. do not recommend.

      *** *****,
      We're sorry to hear about your delivery experience. We rely on our drivers to communicate with customers in advance of the estimated delivery, and then again on the day of delivery. The VAST majority of our drivers are good at this and can get the building placed where it's needed and then leveled.
      This has been forwarded to the Territory Manager, who is responsible for working with the drivers and training them. He'll be addressing this issue with the driver and using this as a training opportunity and to reinforce performance expectations.
      Again, we're sorry you've had this experience...but we hope the building serves your needs well.
      Sincerely,
      Old Hickory Buildings & Sheds

      I ordered a shed and a garage in June of 2022 from * * * *********. Within a short time the garage floor started breaking up. About half of the floor is not safe to walk on. I filed a compliant with ***. The repair was approved after I gave a $209 deductible fee. Its been almost 2months and I still don't have a repair date. I'm an 80 year old lady and I bought the garage to park my car in. If I fall through that I would in all probability break my leg.

      Dear ******* *****,
      We're sorry to learn of the issues you're having with your storage building. Unfortunately, we can't find a warranty claim or any sales records under your name or email address. So that we can help...could you please provide us with more information? Was the sales order placed under a different name? Or do you have the order number or building inventory number from your sales agreement? We will be able to search our records using that information.
      Warranty claims are not managed or submitted by the local dealer. if you haven't yet submitted your warranty claim using the claim form on our website, please do so and you'll be contacted directly by our Warranty Repairs team. You can submit your claim here: *****************************************************. Please be sure to fill out the form completely and provide photos of the issue.
      Sincerely,

      DO NOT buy anything from these people. I ordered and paid for an $18K shed. After nearly 3 months of waiting, they told me they thought the shed HAD ALREADY BEEN DELIVERED!!??. And that I needed to contact the driver and they gave me his number. I called the driver who promptly told me the shed wasn't even finished yet... BUT, not only that he couldn't deliver it to my site. When I attempted to cancel they said they were going to keep 20% of my deposit. or nearly $4000
      I've contacted the police to file a criminal complaint. I believe they are involved in a criminal conspiracy.... in Arizona, where bought the shed, a "Fraudulent Scheme" and a class 2 felony in my State.
      This is based on the disclosures of the company driver that stated to me that they only care about the money, and make promises that they can't keep. So the apparent plan is to get the money even when they know they can't possibly deliver it to your lot. But I still have to pay them $4000.

      Dear *** *******,
      After reading your complaint and reviewing the details further, we are in agreement that a full refund is due. There was a misunderstanding of the facts on our side which we fully acknowledged after further review. After talking with you on the phone, our understanding is that a full refund fully satisfies the issue that you brought to the BBB. We are sorry for the experience you had.
      Sincerely,

      I am so disappointed in my shed/play house, not only did the driver charge me a exter $150.00 to turn it around, which he sit down on my street picked back up from the other side, taking not even five minutes, I asked but never received a receipt,
      Also several of the two by fours looked so decayed I would not have used them to build a dog house,
      I'm sorry but for the price (which is way high) I believe top grade wood should have been used.

      Dear *** ********,
      After checking with our Warranty Repairs department, it appears that a repair-person has been attempting to schedule repairs to your shed but there's been some scheduling issues based on your availability. Our understanding is that you've told them you will be available after today...so hopefully this will get scheduled and resolved soon.
      We also checked with the driver regarding the additional $150 charge. Our understanding is that the shed was delivered, set and leveled in the first location based on your direction...but then you changed your mind regarding the location where you wanted it and you asked the driver to move it, which required him to pull the shed out to the road, switch the direction, set it in the new location and level it again...a process that definitely takes longer than 5 minutes. The free delivery accounts for a single building placement and leveling. Because our drivers are independent contractors and count on keeping a full schedule of deliveries to make their living, they deserve to be compensated by the customer for any additional work performed beyond the standard delivery and set-up that Old Hickory pays them for.
      We hope the repairs are done swiftly and to your satisfaction and that you enjoy the use of your shed.
      Sincerely,
      Old Hickory Buildings & Sheds

      Purchased 17K shed from the location outside Elma Washington. The door frame was ruined upon delivery so that the door does not shut unless you throw yourself against it or yank it as hard as you can from the outside. When I submitted their warranty form I got no response. I then provided a **** review and got an immediate response and someone out to fix it. Unfortunately based on the continued poor performance of the door nothing was done. When Lewis county went out to inspect the shed the individual thought they had closed the front door unaware of the issue and when I went down the next weekend just to check it out the door was open because it was never shut because the door doesn't shut properly. Do not make final payment or take ownership of your shed until you are 100% happy with it. Better yet don't purchase from hickory sheds. Furthermore, they did not level the shed using the skids rather just leveled it under the frame of the shed itself. Very disappointed.

      Would have given 5 stars but a little issue with craftsmanship & materials. I used to work at a lumberyard so I may be a little OCD when it comes to this.
      Found a couple 2x4's that shouldn't have been used. One in the loft area & one for a floor joist. They were twisted & cracked. I would highly recommend 3 - 4x6 stringers on a shed 10' or wider (I was given the option, hind sight is 20/20, I added a 3rd support down the middle) especially with 2x4 for joists & for the loft 10' is a awfully long span for a 2x4, maybe those should be doubled up. I think the flooring should be screwed down not nailed. Catching some nail heads here & there. My only complaints / suggestings.
      The Salesman in Stewartville, MN was very nice & was spot on with what to expect.
      Communication was great with the builder.
      Got the shed earlier than expected.
      Delivery guy is second to none, very nice.
      Shed looks great.

      I ordered a shed to be built and EVERYTHING WAS WRONG including being 4 feet to small. They DID NOT EVEN TRY to remedy it and I had to pay another $602.62 to have them haul it off. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE--BUT the best was seeing it being hauled away!!!

      **************,
      The building that was delivered to you was EXACTLY what you signed the sales agreement to purchase. We have the agreement with your signature and can share it with you by email if you'd like (although it was already provided by email after the order was entered).

      All of our dealers use our proprietary online ordering system that uses a 3D rendering tool. Design selections (including size) are made based on what product options are available in your area. Once the design is complete and reviewed by the customer, the sales (or rental) agreement is executed with a signature and payment is taken.

      The building you received matches the signed agreement. We're sorry that you may have decided on a different size later on, but once a building is complete and delivered...there are cancellation and restocking fees that need to be collected. Those are also spelled out in the sales agreement.

      Sincerely,
      Old Hickory Buildings & Sheds

      I did a lot of research and decided to use Old Hickory Buildings. I was able to plan my own layout and sales Mike was very knowledgeable and pleasant. He guided me through the final stages of ordering (Feb 2022) and was seamless. My work started afterward getting my own pad ready, of course once the snow left. I used about 18" river rock and then gravel on top. I was provided a delivery date by end of June 2022. Typical for todays world, Old Hickory had supply issue with the door brush, I was immediately reached by Mike who gave me an option of delivery a week before expected time or wait for the part. I chose to wait. Garage arrived yesterday and delivered by Dave. Wow amazing driver and very aware of surroundings when manoeuvring the truck/trailer and load. Great experience from start to finish, garage is how I ordered, very solid and would buy from Old Hickory again!!
