WHOLESALE PURCHASES
Please contact Ingrid at one of the phone numbers or by e-mail for
information on wholesale prices.
Note: Wholesale prices are only given to companies or firms that work "in the
trade". If someone wants to get wholesale prices, he or she needs to show
licensing and business promotional documentation to support their status.
Someone who qualifies for wholesale pricing should be knowledgeable about the
plants, know what
and how many plants they want (within reason) and not ask "retail customer"
types of questions.
People working "in the trade" might include:
- Licensed Nurseries
- Individuals with a Nurseryman's License (added to Washington Business
License)
- Licensed Landscapers or Wetland Biologists or Landscape Designers who do
installations for their clients
- Building Contractors installing landscapes at their commercial sites
- Municipalities (Cities and Counties) doing landscapes for their
municipalities
- Businesses which are landscaping their business location
It is up to Ingrid, the owner of Woodbrook Nursery, to decide who is eligible
for wholesale pricing. This should be done prior to a visit to the nursery
during which you want to purchase plants at wholesale pricing. Our regular
staff are trained to help retail customers and not the wholesale accounts - that
responsibility is Ingrid's.
Preferred wholesale sequence is:
- The wholesale customer emails or faxes over plant list.
- Ingrid bids the job and faxes or emails it back (can usually happen within
24 hours if Ingrid is in town).
- The plants can be pulled ahead of time and a pickup time is established.
Other wholesale notes:
- Minimum wholesale purchase is $50. Anything less is considered
retail.
- Wholesale purchases need to be paid by cash or check unless other prior
arrangements have been made with Ingrid.
- When visiting the nursery, it is best to prearrange an appointment with
Ingrid. If this cannot be coordinated to a mutually acceptable time,
Ingrid might be able to instruct her staff about how to help if she has
sufficient information. There is more flexibility with return customers.
- If you come to the nursery without a prior appointment, you should
identify yourself to the staff as a wholesale customer. We want to give
appropriate service to wholesale customers, but that will not be the same as
retail service. Our sales staff's primary responsibility is to help
retail customers. If you do not identify yourself as wholesale at the
onset of your visit, you should expect to pay retail prices.
- Wholesale plants need to be pulled from growing beds, not retail sales
beds, unless the growing bed stock is too limited.
- Our staff will point you in the right direction to find the plants you
need. You should be prepared to pick through the stock to get the plants
you want. Our staff might help if they are not already busy with retail
customers or engaged in other activities.
- Do not take any plants from areas not specified by the staff - we have
lots of plants pulled for other orders and they might not to labeled as such,
but ARE spoken for and not available.
- There is a 15% restocking charge for plants pulled for a customer and not
taken. If projects are out real far, holding fees may be appropriate and
need to be agreed upon.
