If we are delivering on our truck, we can work with you on a specific delivery time.
If your order is being delivered via a 3rd party carrier, we cannot give you an exact time but we request carriers to arrive first thing in the morning, the plants are pre-pulled so all we need to do is load the truck. The carrier will contact you once the truck leaves our nursery with an estimated ETA. We will also provide you with a delivery’s tracking PO# prior to shipping. On the day of delivery, you can visit TQL’s website and track the progress of the delivery. Simply go to their website (www.tql.com) and select TRACK SHIPMENT on the top bar, then you will be prompted to enter the PO# provided.
