Delivery of B & B material :
All prices published are F.O.B. the nursery. Delivery or pickup of the plant material is the responsibility of the purchaser. However, we can arrange economical truck delivery with an outside trucking company. Number of trees per delivery varies due to size and weight of root-ball. (See chart below.) We will load and tarp all trees leaving our farm professionally and securely at no extra charge. Unloading of material is purchasers responsibility. Please have adequate equiptment available at jobsite at pre-arranged time of delivery. Transportation cost is based on mileage one way only and is payable upon delivery, directly to the driver, unless prior arrangments have been made.
Delivery of Tree Truck Transplant material :
Normally delivery charge is included in price of tree. All utilities must be located and we must have the number and dates from locator service before we send our truck to the job site. All jobsites are different and conditions can change due to weather or other conditions beyond our control. Every possible effort will be made to comply with your requirments. However, we reserve the right to schedule our truck as we see fit.
