A field grown tree can only be uprooted and transplanted in certain times of the year when the tree is dormant. A container grown tree can be planted year round because you do not have to cut the root system. We Transport ThemWe use an 18 wheeler to transport your tree safely to the location of your choice. To ensure the safety of your tree we unload your tree using machinery such as excavators and forklifts. Delivery is free of charge inside of Lafayette Parish, LA. We can also deliver to Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Florida for an extra fee depending on your location. We Plant ThemWe have different augers of all sizes that are operated by excavators to properly install any size tree we sell. To install smaller trees we use a Bobcat. Prices for installation vary depending on the size tree you purchase. Tree CareThere are many important factors involved in tree survival.
