Important Message when Laying Turf:
Now that the weather is warming up, it is important that you lay your new turf on the same day that it gets delivered. Leaving your turf overnight stacked up can cause ‘pallet burn’. If turf is left overnight and is damaged we will not replace it.
Important: Some Buffalo turf varieties are limited across SE Qld at the moment but new paddocks of turf are gradually coming online each week. The farms are harvesting new paddocks the turf can sometimes be fragile to handle so care must be taken. Always fold your turf when moving it.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW!
– ALWAYS lay your new turf the SAME DAY that it gets DELIVERED! With Sth East Qld’s often hot and humid conditions, turf can heat up and burn when left stacked on the pallet for extended periods of time ie: overnight. Warner Garden Centre will not replace damaged turf that has been left on the pallet overnight.
– NEVER water your turf while it is STACKED ON PALLET!
– If you suspect that somethings is wrong with your turf when laying it, then please call us IMMEDIATELY (at worst take some pictures of the affected turf). It’s hard to deal with issues 2 weeks after the job is done.
TIP: Don’t use soaker hoses to water your new turf as they can be very ineffective. A simple metal dome sprinkler is a better alternative!
Cancelling Turf Orders
During winter some of our turf farms will harvest your turf on the day (starting at 7am) prior to your delivery so as to ensure their trucks are making an early start for deliveries. With this in mind, please allow 36hrs notice if you wish to cancel or postpone an order. Where turf is already cut and cannot be reallocated to other orders, your order cannot be cancelled or postponed.
