Use a receiving plan for fresh eucalyptus and garlands that covers timing, inspection, storage, labeling, and event-day handoff.
Assign a real receiving person
The delivery address should have a person who can accept the shipment, bring cartons inside promptly, and begin inspection. A loading dock or venue address is not enough if no one is responsible for the boxes. Share tracking with the receiver and confirm any building access, gate, suite, or dock instructions in advance.
Inspect before reorganizing
Count cartons and ordered units, identify each product, and photograph concerns before disposing of packaging. Natural leaf size, color, shape, scent, and fullness vary by crop and stem, but damage or fulfillment discrepancies should be documented promptly. Keep labels with the correct product until counts are complete.
Prepare a cool, clean holding area
Protect greenery from direct sun, heat, freezing conditions, and unnecessary handling. Follow the care directions supplied for the specific product. Do not assume that every garland or foliage type should be treated identically. Keep the workspace clean and leave airflow around cartons or prepared pieces as appropriate.
Label by installation destination
After inspection, group materials by table, room, ceremony area, staircase, or floral team. Include intended footage or bunch count on each label. This step helps reveal shortages before transport and prevents one installation crew from taking product reserved for another area.
