The Delivery charge varies, depending on your distance from Alpine Gardens and current fuel prices. Our sales staff can look it up and give you the current delivery rate for your location. Deliveries requiring multiple trips will be charged for each trip.
Deliveries will be made within two working days. (This could be the day the payment is received as well as the 2 days following but does not incude Saturday, Sunday, or the following holidays: Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving). If you have to be called before we make your delivery, the delivery will probably take longer than two working days because you might not be home when we are ready to make the delivery.
If you want to delay delivery because you won't be ready for it within 2 days, tell us 2 consecutive days that we can take the delivery.
We will need specific information about where to place the delivered merchandise - it needs to be a place that we can back a truck up to. It is helpful if you can mark the spot with a stake, painted rock, spray paint, etc., and we'll make a note of it for our driver.
Delivery doesn't include distributing plants around the yard. This service is available at hourly labor rates. If additional labor is involved, we may not be able to schedule the delivery within the 2 working days. For information on planting, see Installation Services, below.
Different types of bulk items must be delivered on separate trips unless you don't mind them getting mixed.
B&B Trees: In addition to the regular delivery fee, we add $10 for each B&B tree to be delivered, because it takes at least 2 people to deliver them. (B&B means the tree has burlap wrapped around the root ball instead of being grown in a pot - these are typically our largest trees)
Plant Installation Services:
Our Alpine Gardens crews can install your Tree, Shrub , and Perennial purchases for you. The price for this service is 50% of the regular price of the plant/plants.
