Delivery

Availability update!

PLEASE NOTE: Whilst we endeavor to keep our availability up to date as much as possible, stock is moving very quickly and there may be some occasions where the stock isn’t available. Please do not hesitate to contact us to check availability before purchasing.

For orders of 4 or less ‘Small’ or ‘Medium’ sized trees, the driver will be able to offload these to kerbside for you, where they can then be moved following the drivers departure. For orders of 5 or more trees, or when ordering ‘Large’ or ‘Instant’ sized specimen, arrangements will need to be made on site to offload without assistance from the driver. Please do not hesitate to contact the team if you have any questions, who will be happy to discuss. 

General Information

When our trees are dormant, between October and April, they are easily stored on site but must be kept upright as if they are laid flat, rabbits can nibble the crowns overnight. During the growing season, between May and September, our trees are in full leaf so should ideally be planted and watered the same day or very shortly after delivery.

For best results please refer to our planting demonstration on how to plant Barcham Trees.

The logistics of tree deliveries

Barcham have been delivering container grown trees to all parts of the UK since the early 90’s and during that time have developed an expertise in ensuring that trees are received by customers when required and in perfect condition. While not owning a vehicle fleet Barcham has built up a strong relationship with a small group of haulage companies who have developed a deep knowledge of how to handle container grown trees.

The vehicles that are used range in size from 7.5t rigid or flat-bed trailers to rigid or curtain-sided articulated lorries less frequently. Therefore it is important to make the Sales team at Barcham Trees aware of any specific requirements and discuss options prior to placing your order and receiving delivery.

These vehicles do not carry on-board lifting equipment or machinery such as cranes or forklifts and so if you have ordered ‘Large’ or ‘Instant’ trees (anything in a 100L container or above), you will need suitable measures in place to unload. If you are having 5 or more trees delivered you will need to be able to unload the trees.
Our hauliers are contracted to make a kerbside delivery only, or to nearest access which is within the terms of their insurance.

An enhanced delivery service is available with trees off loaded by crane which can be particularly useful where space is restricted at the delivery site, please discuss specific requirements with our Sales team who will be happy to provide you with a quote.
