Will a Ludwig Building meet my local building code?

All Ludwig Buildings are strictly designed to comply with the building codes governing your site's location. We recommend contacting your local building official to determine your building's code requirements.


Where does Ludwig ship to?

Ludwig primarily serves the Southeast United States, however, we have delivered our buildings to 41 states and 28 countries. We have shipped over 50,000 buildings worldwide.


How long does it take for my building to be delivered after an order is placed?

Our buildings are designed on an individual basis. Therefore, estimated delivery times differ based on the complexity and size of your building.


How is my building delivered and do you unload it for me?

In order to maintain competitive pricing and consistently deliver on time, Ludwig operates its own shipping fleet of flatbed trailers. Shipping costs depend on the number of loads and mileage to the job site. Ludwig does not unload the trailer, therefore be sure to have sufficient manpower and equipment when our truck arrives.


Does Ludwig erect metal buildings?

We do not. However, we have a great network of building erectors and would be happy to give you a recommendation.
