In order to
provide our customers with large specimens we have
worked up some general quotes to help you in deciding whether you
would
prefer to pick them up here or have us deliver them to your
location.
Below are
three charts with charges for delivery up to 1000 miles.
Quotes are based on current fuel prices.
Updates to these quotes are done monthly in order to stay
current with the rising cost of fuel.
These are charges for bamboo purchases of $1200 (minimum bamboo
purchase for delivery) and up to $7000. These are calculated
from previous cost with the use of one4 X 4 truck with or
without a trailer. With our largest
trailer we
can carry 50 standard size field specimens. Our standard size FS
are 12 to 16 foot height range and 75 to 100 lb. total weight
per division. We can carry up to 5000 pound total load weight
excluding trailer weight. Delivery cost are in addition to
the bamboo purchase. Quotes are figured from our nursery which
is 50 miles west of Birmingham, Alabama.
Once you determine the one way distance, round up to the nearest
chart mileage. When figuring mileage, keep in mind additional
miles for pull off. Often 25 to 50 miles are accumulated when
exits are taken for rest breaks, dinning and hotel
accommodations.

For larger
orders over $7000 or 5000 pound load weight, we use
large covered trucks to transport the bamboo. Weight becomes
an issue with larger loads and alternate transport methods
must be used. Often loads exceed
10,000 pounds and more than one large covered truck must be
utilized.

Delivery cost for these
large loads are calculated once we have all the order information.
We will be happy to give you a quote on any size order delivered
anywhere within the continental U.S. excluding California.



Pick up your plants
here and save the delivery cost. We will work with you and any
type transportation you have to ensure a safe trip home with
your
new bamboo.

A Cadillac as used below
with a trailer will work also.
Over the years we have
loaded with all types.

Above this hybrid,
electric, car has made several
visits to our groves.
