Selection
Cherry
Lake Tree Farm selects the trees that meet the minimum specifications
listed in our catalog. Special specification requirements, or other
selection criteria, can be accommodated, subject to availability.
Upon request, we can grade trees based upon the Florida Grades and
Standards.
Tree
Reservation
Trees
can be reserved in advance for customers in good standing for future
projects. Commitment to a specific delivery date allows for proper
crop allocation. For deliveries scheduled beyond 30 days of order,
a non-refundable 25% deposit will be required to secure availability
and early tree selection (in-house tagging). For orders without
a precisely known delivery date, advance reservation will give first
right of refusal on future crops, but will no longer be secured
past crop ready date. Contract growing options are available upon
request. Crop availability and delivery dates are subject to modification
due to production variances and mother nature's unpredictability.
Tagging
We
encourage customers to rely on our product selection team for their
tagging needs. Customer tagging can be arranged by appointment only,
for established customers.
Claims
Procedure
We
do not anticipate any claims. Orders are carefully prepared and
packed to meet your expectations. However, if there is a claim concerning
errors in variety, species, quantities or damages, please notify
your sales representative or our shipping department within 24 hours.
Our responsibility ceases when trees are accepted in good condition
upon delivery. No trees should be returned without a pre-authorization
number from Cherry Lake Tree Farm.
Re-Stocking
A
20% restocking fee will be charged for orders cancelled with less
than 24 hours notice prior to loading or for any returned trees.
