You do not pay anything today on Carport Direct. When you order your building with us, we just authorize your card. Our ordering department calls you before charging your card within 24-48 hours of your order to confirm your building. Once you’re satisfied is when we go ahead and charge your card for 10%-16% of the building total price. We do not collect any sales tax upfront either. The balance is only collected when the work is completed and your building is about to be installed. If your buildings retail price is more than 25,000, we ask for 50% of the remaining amount one week before the installation. Our installation crew/shop managers call you to confirm your availability and we send you a partial invoice for buildings>25,000. If your building costs less than 25,000 USD, you pay the remaining amount upon delivery and installation of your metal building.
