Is delivery driving for flower shops a thing? I am not a florist, but I own a cargo van. I would love to specialize in delivering flowers for florists. Do you think that could be profitable? Do florists typically do their own transporting, or do you think that some could use the help?
Amy, I think it would be really useful to do a video on how you transport one or more of the ever-so-trendy compote designs that everyone is showing now. They drape and extend far beyond the container, often asymmetrically, and they are definitely beautiful. But how in the world are people transporting those for an event --especially multiple arrangements like that, or how do you even deliver a single one without the reaching, arching branches and flowers getting bent or broken?.
Thanks for the comment. The peg board actually works great for compotes and several other boxes and trays also work well. I take a sausage like shape of paper and wrap it around the edge and any delicate or reaching branches just lay on top. I only add really draping fragile things on sight if they are extra prone to break.
@@TheFloralCoach Thanks so much Amy, that makes sense. I've sort of come to that conclusion, too -- the hard way! A few times I arrive at my destination with the arching branches broken. Also a good reason to ALWAYS take lots of extra foliage. Thanks so much, love your videos!
Still think I prefer the foam sheets with cutouts to deliver with. Simpler and not a ton of pieces floating around. Little more pricey but totally worth it. Will have to try this out and see. What size are the pvc pipes in diameter?
Also- this system is very easy to clean if you ever need too. Just pull it out of the van and hose it off. One of the best purchases I ever made for my business.
If you are in Canada, you need to have product delivered to a US postal box. If not, delivery costs are equal to product cost. For me, in Southern BC, it would have cost well over $400 for a half kit.
If you have a question on it call 407-321-4310 Carroll will be happy to answer any quests. Tell him Joe told ya to call. That is the number to Seminole Delivery system let it ring it will go to their cellphone after 4/5 rings.
TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Very pushy after I requested more information. They called multiple times and when I finally got a chance to call them back they screamed at me saying how rude I am to have wasted their time.
Tips and tricks on individual flowers, like how to open a peony, or an iris, etc.

Agreed! I had the same experience...twice. I finally declined.
