Delivery
Fargro make deliveries using our own fleet of trucks and vans, couriers, and third-party operators, depending on your delivery location and the nature of your order. Our aim is to use the most efficient delivery method available.
If your delivery is assigned to a courier or third-party operator, delivery is typically within four or five working days, depending on the goods within your consignment. Our own trucks and vans have assigned delivery routes for each day.
When you place your order on-line, or by contacting our Customer Services team, you will be advised about your delivery date options.
If you have not received your goods as advised, please call our Customer Services Team on 01903 726100 or email orders@fargro.co.uk, quoting your Order Number.
Access to your Site
Standard delivery of palletised goods requires access for an 18tonne rigid vehicle with a tail lift. The lorries are approximately the same size as a standard dustcart.
Pallets can only be wheeled from the vehicle if there is a hard surface on which the pallet truck can run; this does not include grass, soft or stony ground.
If you have Restricted Access or are unable to accept delivery by these methods, please contact our Customer Services Team on 01903 726100 to discuss your specific requirements.
