Delivery Information

Front Desk Contact/Delivery Contact(Required)

Please provide the cell phone number (not school phone number or extension) for the front desk contact or main point person you’d like to handle deliveries. To deliver your garden soil, we need to provide a mobile phone number where the delivery driver will be able to reach someone during delivery hours and give a 30-minute heads up for delivery. Delivery hours are 6 AM to 8 PM, potentially outside of school hours, so a school phone number will not be sufficient. *Please note that the front desk contact or delivery recipient does not need to be present on-site when delivery occurs, just able to answer the call to confirm readiness and exact delivery location on campus. We will not use or contact this cell phone number for any reason outside of this one-time soil delivery.
