Review of Hedges Direct


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Great product let down by woeful delivery

For the 2nd time in a month, plant delivery has not happened as promised.
Even getting 2hr delivery window does not mean plants will arrive same contracted day.
Despite further assurance of a 2pm latest delivery, I’m still waiting!
No issue with Hedges direct or plant quality or pricing, but as a gardening business we need to have certainty in delivery schedules.
They really need to look at their delivery agents as I am seriously looking to move to another supplier…. Which I don’t really want to do.

Hi,
Lovely to speak to you before and thank you for your feedback. I really do apologise for the delay with the couriers delivery your order, and I completely understand how disappointing and frustrating this was for you.
So thank you for being so understanding and lovely on our call, and thank you for placing another order after our call. We really do appreciate that.
I am sure you will be kept busy planting all the Cherry Laurels today. They will knit together to create a beautiful dense evergreen hedge. During the spring they produce tiny white flowers that are popular with butterflies and bees and during winter they produce small red berries that hungry birds love.
Once again, I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused.
Thank you once again for the feedback and thank you for being such a fabulous customer and if we can help you with anything further please let us know.
You have a lovely weekend 😊.
Kind Regards,
Judi, Customer Care

It is lovely to hear how pleased you are with your Spotted Laurel. They will bring colour to your garden all year round with their dark green leaves with splashes of yellow on them.
Once again, I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused and thank you for being such a fabulous customer and if we can help you with anything further please let us know.
Have a have a lovely weekend 😊.

Good prices and quality materials but poor communication.
Last 2 orders have just turned up without any prior advice.
I asked for a call to let me know so that I could get to customers house to see materials in.
Didn’t happen and lorry arrived 7.30am

Hi Malling Garden Services,

Thank you for your review & repeat custom, we appreciate it. Unfortunately we're unable to call every delivery as standard, instead we email advising of the delivery date.

Upon looking at your order, it appears that your email was entered with a mistake which explains the lack of emails received - this looks to have been updated, however it was updated after delivery had beed scheduled.

Emails for any future order will will now be sent to the correct address.

Kind regards,
East Coast Fencing
