Get Financing and Place Your Order

By now, you should have a pretty good idea about how much your carport project will cost.

If you have the necessary cash, all you need to do is order your carport to get started. You only need to pay a deposit when you order, which is usually between 10% and 17% of the total. The balance isn’t due until after the carport is installed (unless you’re getting a huge carport that costs more than $15,000, in which case 50% of the balance is due when your installation is scheduled). You can pay both amounts with any major credit card.

If you need a way to finance your carport, here are some options:

A zero-interest credit card is a simple, low-cost way to finance a carport. Some cards don’t charge interest for up to 21 months. But you’ll need to check the terms carefully, and make sure that your credit limit will be high enough to cover the necessary expenses.

If this sounds like a good option, just do a web search for “21-month no interest cards” to see what you might qualify for.

If you need more than two years to pay for your carport, consider a personal loan. Many banks, credit unions, and peer-to-peer lending sites offer personal loans for one-time purchases.

Submit Your Order

Once you have a financing plan, you’re ready to order. If you saved your design, find the email with the link to your design, and open your design in the online designer. If you can’t find the design you saved, or you want to start over again, just head over to the 3D Carport Builder on my website.

Once you have your perfect carport design, submit your order and pay the deposit to lock in your price. Remember that when you place an order with Alan’s Factory Outlet, you can cancel for any reason before the installation and get your full deposit back.

After you submit your order, my team will send you information about requesting a permit and getting your site ready for installation. Then we will hold your order until you get a permit (if required in your area) and prepare your site. Once you have everything ready, we’ll notify the manufacturer, and your order will be put in a queue for scheduling.

If you need to make customizations to your design that aren’t possible with the 3D Carport Builder, just give me a call at 1-800-488-6903. Ready? Place your order now.
