Heavy bundles and crates should be spread out on the roof to avoid overloading the roof structure. Place
the material directly over major supports such as beams or trusses.

when unbundled.
!
Use caution when cutting metal bundle straps as the tension on the strap may cause it to spring up
potentially causing injury.

If the material is going to be stored outdoors for any period of time, we recommend covering it with plastic or

off.
