1.2 All measurements are approximate.
1.3 Most products require full or part assembly. It is the Customer’s responsibility to ascertain this information prior to purchase should it be deemed a condition of purchase on the Customer’s part.
1.4 The reproduction of colours is as accurate as the photographic and production process will allow.
1.5 All risk in the products we supply to the Customer, in particular the risk of any loss or damage, shall pass to the Customer on delivery of the products to the address specified on the order. Ownership of the products shall not pass to the Customer until we have received payment in full in respect of such products.
1.6 We shall not be liable and thus offer no compensation for any indirect losses the Customer may suffer, including any loss of profit, wasted time including time off work, income or anticipated savings as a result of our failure to comply with these terms or our negligence. However, our liability in respect of any death or personal injury caused by our negligence shall not in any way be restricted.
1.7 These terms, constitute the entire terms on which we will provide products to the Customer, and cancel and supersede all prior arrangements and representations, whether verbal or written.
1.8 We may amend these terms from time to time at our discretion without notice to the Customer. Any amendments will be posted on this website and will supersede any terms and conditions previously published by us.
1.9 No delay or failure by ourselves in exercising or enforcing any of our rights or remedies under these terms shall operate as a waiver of those rights.
1.10 If any one or more of the provisions of these terms should be held by any court to be unenforceable, such provision shall be validly restated to represent as much as possible the intent of the clause and, if such clause cannot be restated for any reason, it shall be severable from these terms and deleted.
1.11 The Customer may not assign or sub-contract any of their rights or obligations under these terms to any person without our prior written consent. No third party shall be entitled to enforce any of these terms whether by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or otherwise.

2. Force Majeure

Christmas Tree Ordering and Returns Policy

All Trees must be checked within 7 days of receipt of goods. Hayes Garden World must be advised of any problems, including damages, faults, incorrect product, missing parts, and unsuitability, within that period. 

  • Returning your tree could not be easier

If the tree arrives damaged, faulty, does not meet your expectations or your requirements have changed, just reply to the email confirmation of your order and tell us what you would like to do. Your options are:

  • Exchange

If the tree is damaged, faulty,  or does not fit your requirements and you require a replacement or alternative, we can arrange the exchange for you. The cost of the return of a damaged tree for refund is Free. The cost of an exchange because you have changed your requirements is just £15.00.

  • Return for Refund

If the tree does not meet your expectations, you can arrange the return yourself for a full refund of the purchase price. Alternatively, Hayes will organise the collection for a £25.00 fee, which will be deducted from the price paid for the Tree. Hayes requires notification of any returns within 14 days instore and 30 days online of receipt.

  • Do you need to be home?

We can usually arrange either of these within a day or two, you will not always need to be home to accept the exchange and if there is somewhere it can be left in your absence, we can arrange to do the exchange from there or make the collection from there. It can also be collected from or left at a neighbour’s house or from as long as we have prior notification of the alternative address.

  • Can I have my parcel delivered to an alternative address?

Your item can be delivered to any delivery address; it is easy to select the alternative address as you are checking out on our website. Just untick the box that says deliver to Billing address and it will then allow you to enter an alternative delivery address.

  • Do I need to activate my Tree Guarantee?

Your Guarantee will be automatically activated once it is delivered and is registered on our order system. You will need to retain your order number for future claims on your guarantee.

  • How long will it take to deliver my Christmas tree?

Your Christmas tree will usually be delivered within 48 Hours during the run up to Christmas, but can be delivered within 24 hours or on a specified date if required. Closer to Christmas all trees will aim to deliver within 24 hours as standard. Our standard delivery charge of £4.99 applies no matter what your requirements.

If you require a tree the following day on which you place your order, you will need to make telephone contact to advise us of this requirement as during busy times, we can run 24 hours behind.

  • Purchasing a Christmas tree for delivery to Europe or Internationally
