Optimizing Shed Deliveries: Real-Time Control with Shed Suite
RC
Ryan Chatterton8 Jan 2025 • 3 min read
The shed delivery landscape has evolved. While many businesses struggle with disconnected systems - spreadsheets updated manually, basic inventory counts, and constant phone coordination - Shed Suite offers a comprehensive solution that transforms how you manage deliveries and inventory.
A Tale of Two Mornings
Without Shed Suite:
It's 9 AM. Three customers are already calling for delivery updates. Your yard manager is walking through morning dew, laptop (or even a clipboard) in hand, trying to reconcile inventory. A driver calls in about a delivery address change, but sales can't find the customer's file across their emails and shared drives. Meanwhile, two custom new builds are ready for delivery, but no one's quite sure who's available to pick them up or when delivery can be expected.
With Shed Suite:
- Open dashboard → instantly see new builds that are finished at the shop and ready for delivery
- View exact delivery locations on a list or map
- Customer calls → team views real-time look at what orders are finished or almost finished and ready to schedule.
- Address change needed → one-click update, automatically updates the driver delivery app with the new address
Real-Time Control That Drives Results
Shed Suite's integrated platform connects every aspect of your delivery operations:
Smart Inventory Management
When a customer asks about their shed status, your team instantly accesses:
- Live location and status tracking
- Complete build status and history
- Photo documentation from the shop and drivers
- Full communication history
Your shop yard and dealer lots transform from static storage spaces into an organized, trackable system where every unit's location and status updates in real-time.
Driver Empowerment
Shed Suite equips your delivery team with:
- AI-optimized routes that adapt to traffic and weather via Google Maps
- Mileage recording and actual real-time delivery Lat and Long adjustments when building is not placed exactly on the delivery address
- Real-time in-the-field payment processing for collecting final payments at delivery.
- Automated customer updates
- Proof of delivery and digital signatures via the delivery certificate

Real Success: Stor-Mor's Transformation
When Stor-Mor Portable Buildings faced the challenge of managing 300+ dealers with manual systems and spreadsheets, they turned to Shed Suite.

"I don't know what we would do without Shed Suite. It's streamlined our business like none other," says Warren. Their dealers love the user-friendly system, helping Stor-Mor scale faster than they imagined possible.
