Potting Shed Due Mid Next Week

 

It's a shame the weather has turned nasty, for mid next week because my Forest Garden 6ft x8ft Potting Shed is going to be delivered to my allotment! 

I received a nice text message from them informing me of the date and that "I have no need to chase as they will be in touch with a 4-hour time window closer to the date. If I have any questions I can read their dedicated delivery page Here"  extract below:-

I have to say I'm really impressed that..... 

  • On the morning of delivery, you will receive an updated 2 hour ETA via E mail, this will also have a live tracking link for you to track the drivers progress.

We run our own home delivery service, with our own fleet of vehicles and our own drivers. This means that if you have purchased one of our products from a retailer, in most cases, it will be delivered directly by us.

We typically make about 225,000 deliveries to customers’ homes across the UK every year.

We use 3.5 tonne open flatbed or 7.5 tonne lorries (about the size of a refuse collection truck) so if you think there will be any issues about accessing your property, please notify our customer services team. We welcome any extra delivery instructions to enable a successful delivery.

In the event of any unforeseen circumstances, Forest Garden Group cannot be held liable for any out-of-pocket purchases made prior to accepting delivery.

We are proud to introduce our White Glove Delivery Service as displayed above:

  • Approximately 48 hours before delivery you will receive a 4-hour time slot via Text message. You can respond to this text and we welcome any helpful delivery instructions to ensure a successful delivery.
  • On the morning of delivery, you will receive an updated 2 hour ETA via E mail, this will also have a live tracking link for you to track the drivers progress.
  • Upon arrival the friendly driver will deliver your order to a safe place of your choice as long as it is a reasonable request and it is safe to do so within your exterior property or Garden. Please ensure they have unrestricted access, which does not involve passing through your home or garage .We would not risk damaging your property to an unsafe location.
  • All product packaging will be removed and taken away with the driver.
