Delivery service

Palmstead Nurseries offers an efficient delivery service predominantly made using our own fleet of vehicles. By minimizing the use of contract hauliers we are able to deliver your orders when and where you need them. Our lorries have both curtain sides and tail-lifts to facilitate ease of unloading. By utilizing a number of different methods of packaging we ensure that our plants reach their destination in first class condition. Plants will generally be packed on Danish trolleys, cardboard pallet boxes or pallets for shipping. To help you understand more about our delivery service please click here.


PLEASE NOTE - FROM 1 FEBRUARY 2025 OUR DELIVERY CHARGES ARE INCREASING

In recent years we have avoided passing on many price increases and have held our delivery charges by absorbing ever-increasing operational costs. However, the time has now come when this is no longer sustainable,  and so we must inform you that we will be increasing our delivery charges from 1 February 2025.

Our goal is to ensure that our customers receive excellent service; that orders are delivered on time, safely, and in excellent condition and so we are confident that these new rates will help us maintain these standards. In addition to grouping deliveries based on location, to conserve fuel and reduce emissions, we are always looking for other ways to reduce the environmental impact of our deliveries. As an example, we recently switched all our transport vehicles to biofuel, reducing our carbon footprint by 90%.

We understand that an increase in delivery charges can be both challenging and frustrating, and we do greatly value your continued support and loyalty. However, by making these adjustments we will ensure that our services remain efficient, reliable and sustainable in the long term.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us... we're here to help.
