Delivering flowers without damaging delicate arrangements is a challenge every florist faces. Sudden stops or rough roads can ruin hours of work in seconds. At In Bloom Flowers, we’ve found a solution that ensures flowers arrive in perfect condition, and we’d like to share this handy tip with you!
Our Flower Transportation Solution
We use large plastic storage bins to hold smaller crates, creating a stable and protective environment for our floral arrangements. Here’s why this method works so well:
- No Tipping or Shifting: The small crates inside the bins are custom-fitted to hold vases or foam bases snugly, ensuring flowers stay upright and intact during transit.=
- Ease of Carrying: The large bins are not only sturdy but also easy to carry, allowing you to transport multiple arrangements in one trip, reducing the risk of dropping or damaging anything.
- Spill Containment: Accidents happen, but with these bins, any water or debris from the arrangements will stay inside the bin, protecting your car from unwanted mess.
- Versatile Use: For larger bouquets with baskets, containers, or wider bases, the arrangements can be placed directly in the bins without the need for crates, offering flexibility based on your order size.
Why It Works
This setup is simple, efficient, and cost-effective. It not only helps keep flowers upright and secure but also protects your vehicle from water damage or dirt. Plus, it saves time when loading and unloading multiple arrangements at once.
