How will you deliver my olive tree? We offer a daily Olive Tree delivery, via a national pallet delivery service.
Delivery is to the door/drive and is an all-day delivery with no time slot specified. The driver should call 1 hour before arrival. The tree will arrive on a pallet in a large lorry (dustbin lorry size) with a tail lift, please let us know if there are any access problems for a large vehicle.
The vehicle does not have any lifting equipment, nor can the driver take the tree to your required planting destination.
Please ask us about Saturday AM deliveries if required there would be an additional Saturday charge and a weekday AM delivery. There is also an evening delivery available between the times of 5pm – 9pm, however we do need to check with the individual depot for this service. Please ask about additional cost if any of these services are required when placing your order.
For many properties access is limited and the only way into a garden can be either taking the tree (well wrapped) through the house, may be a side gate or sometimes up and over which may require a crane! If the latter is required, it is best you find a local contractor. we will of course always be there to offer advice to you or the contractor if required.
We understand this is a large item to purchase and will always do our best to help inform you of a possible solution to getting your order to its destination as we have come across so many scenarios over the years.
Lastly, I am certain before you place your order you will have thought about access, doors, gates, steps etc., weight/width of the tree and pot, and how you are going to move it. If you are unsure about anything, please call us to discuss it rather than receiving the tree and realising it is too big or too heavy for you to handle and take to its new home.

I live in London at the top of a block of flats – I want an old olive tree for the balcony, is this possible? Yes, it’s certainly possible, although it will depend on the load bearing of your balcony. Many of our deliveries in London require special logistics and this is no different. For a balcony tree, if the tree is too large for stairs and lift, it is possible for you to hire a crane locally and we can offer advice at this time.
I want an old olive tree in a container on my patio – is this possible? Absolutely yes! Please make sure that there’s adequate drainage and that you’ve sited the container where you want it. Make sure the container is big enough to house the root ball of the olive tree.
