Guarantee
We fully understand that we are sending living plants so there is always the possibility that something may go wrong along the way! Most other nurseries say that once they have delivered the plants to you they are your responsibility, but we offer a full 30 Day Guarantee.
If, at any time during the first 30 days, you are unhappy for any reason then please send the plants back to us, preferably in a stout box, or padded envelope. We will replace them or refund your money. Due to high costs involved we do not offer a replacement plant service for orders outside of the UK - you must return the plants as usual and we will send a credit note or refund your credit card.
If you do not return the plants to us then this invalidates the guarantee.
We can only keep our standards high by investigating the cause of problems.
We feel 30 days is a very fair guarantee period, so please do not return plants after that length of time or expect us to refund/replace them.
Regretfully Allwoods does not pay the cost of the return postage. Your statutory rights are not affected.
or alternatively, you can call our office on 01273 844229 between the hours of 9am, to 4.30pm (answering machine at all other times).
