Frequently Asked Questions

Delivery


Do you deliver to my area?

Yes, more than likely as we deliver to over 95% of main land UK addresses. 

There are some areas in the Scottish Highlands and off shore islands that we can not deliver to.

Available delivery options will be displayed in the checkout once you have entered your delivery postcode.

How are products delivered?

Most of our products, such as turf, topsoil, composts etc are delivered on a pallet via a pallet delivery network.

Smaller goods such as tools, grass seed, accessories and single bags of compost are delivered by Royal Mail or Courier

Pallet deliveries can only be guaranteed to your kerbside / property entrance.  However, where possible the driver will attempt to deliver onto your drive.

The pallet is delivered from an 18 tonne lorry with a tail lift and pallet trolley (we do not deliver with a crane or hiab).

It is only possible to manoeuvre a pallet truck on level, smooth and solid surfaces such as tarmac, concrete or block paving. We can not deliver on to slopes, loose gravel, grass or other soft or uneven surfaces.

We need clear access for an 18 tonne lorry, it is your responsibility as the customer to advise us of any access restrictions that you think may cause a delivery issue, here are some issues that can cause delivery problems:

  • weight restrictions on roads leading to your property,
  • narrow lanes,
  • low overhanging trees,
  • narrow roads with on street parking 
  • no drop kerb
