Transporting and Storing Vinyl Siding
If you are transporting vinyl siding to a job site, make certain
to keep cartons flat and supported along their entire length.
At the job site, take the following precautions when storing
panels:
• Store on a flat surface and support the entire
length of the carton.
• Keep cartons dry.
• Store away from areas where falling objects or other
construction activity may cause damage.
• Do not store in any location where temperatures may
exceed 130° F (e.g., on black top pavement during
unusually hot weather or under dark tarps or plastic
wraps without air circulation).
