We’re excited to announce that we’ve reopened our Heights, Conway, and Pine Bluff showrooms and we can’t wait to see everyone! Safe Service is our priority. The CDC has recommended the following 4 procedures – screening, social distancing, hygiene, and masks. We’re taking a lot of precautions – read more below!

• Customers

1. 1. Please don’t enter if you’re sick.
   2. We have greeters at each store to welcome and monitor our in-store customer capacity and ensure masks and gloves (if appropriate) are worn. Masks and gloves are available to all customers upon request.

   3. Once it’s delivered, we’ll text the recipient a photo and let them know where it was left.

In the effort to keep the recipient and our staff as safe as possible, our delivery driver will text the recipient the following before heading to his or her next delivery.

“Hello, this is _____ with Tipton & Hurst. I’m on my way with a special surprise! We’re offering no-contact delivery at this time to be as safe as possible. Please let me know where a safe place I can leave your surprise is, or if you’re not at home, when would be a good time to redeliver. Thanks so much!”

Once the delivery is made, they’ll send this message to both you and your recipient:

“Tipton & Hurst Florist – Your delivery was left _______ (on your porch, by the front door, where we discussed, etc.).” Please also include a photo of the product where it was left.

Dear Tipton & Hurst friends and family,

In 134 years, we’ve weathered pandemics, wars, and depressions. Like many of you, we’re anxious to see how COVID-19 will shape the next few weeks and months, but we want to assure you that we’re here to bring as much joy and comfort as we can, as safely as possible.

Above all, we remain committed to the safety of our clients and the entire Tipton & Hurst family. We also know that flowers play an important role during difficult times. Flowers are a source of comfort and happiness, and a way to express what you can’t quite put into words. For that reason, we want to remain open and accessible to our clients—while ensuring safety for all.

We are closely monitoring all recommendations made by the CDC, as these are updated daily. Below are the adjustments we have made to ensure the well-being of our clients and team:

– From Monday through Friday, our Heights, Conway, and Pine Bluff locations will be open for telephone and online orders with no-contact pickup and free no-contact delivery from 8 am – 5 pm, and our Heights location will be open Saturday from 9 am – 5 pm. Please reference our website for updates.

– Our retail showrooms will close at 5 pm today (Tuesday, March 17) for the foreseeable future. It’s very important that we do our part in protecting our community, customers, and staff. Our online shop is open 24/7, and we’d love to deliver something beautiful for you.

– We’re also debuting Facetime and Skype shopping soon, so you can view our showrooms from the safety of your home.

– Due to restrictions set by these facilities, we will not be delivering to most hospitals or nursing homes until further notice.

– We’re offering free local no-contact delivery. Our delivery team will call your recipient ahead of time and determine a location to leave the gift. We want to keep both our customers and delivery drivers as safe as possible. Please call us at 501-666-3333 if you have a specific delivery request.

– We’re also offering no-contact pickup zones at our Heights, Conway, and Pine Bluff locations. Call us when you’re arriving and we’ll bring your order out and secure it in your trunk or backseat.

Our goal at Tipton & Hurst is to share joy and comfort through flowers, and that now feels more necessary than ever. We will continue to deliver these sentiments as safely as possible. As always, we thank you for your continued support of our company, and we wish health and safety to you and all of your loved ones.

Howard Hurst
President
Tipton & Hurst
“Guaranteed Satisfaction Since 1886”

We understand the anxiety and uncertainty around the spread of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, and continue to take precautionary steps to protect our employees and customers’ health and safety.

As always, we have a wide selection of fresh floral arrangements, gourmet treats, exquisite home scents, and so much more available online and over the phone. Our drivers will now call recipients before floral deliveries to offer the option for deliveries to be placed outside doors or at reception desks to further minimize human-to-human contact.

In light of the uncertainty around COVID-19, Tipton & Hurst is happy to offer free order postponements or cancellations. However, we do ask for advance notice, particularly for specialty items. And, as always, we hope you will consider us for your next floral or gift order and event.

For years, we’ve used industrial cleaners to disinfect our work surfaces, containers and storage areas to minimize bacterial and viral growth and to prolong the life of our flowers. In the coming weeks, we will continue to follow these same stringent procedures, with additional cleanings of all hard surfaces in our stores to further protect our customers and staff.

In accordance with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we’ve encouraged all employees to follow proper hygiene practices, including frequent and thorough handwashing, and to practice social distancing, particularly if they feel they may be sick.

We look forward to serving you with our motto of “Guaranteed Satisfaction Since 1886”, either in our stores, over the phone at 501-666-3333, or at tiptonhurst.com, soon. Thank you.

Howard Hurst

President

Tipton & Hurst

Cleanliness

For years, we’ve used DCD (a common floral disinfectant) to keep our flowers and workspaces free of bacteria and viruses. It’s long-lasting and doesn’t break down or evaporate as bleach would. Instead, it coats the area for days at a time. We’ve expanded our DCD usage to include all door handles and panels, countertops, all bathroom surfaces. 

Gloves

We’ve provided disposable nitrile gloves to all employees, but especially our delivery drivers. We feel that wearing gloves makes you more aware of your actions, including touching your face. 

Sanitizer

We’ve made hand sanitizer available to our customers at all doors, as well as paper towels to use as a barrier when opening doors.

No Contact Pickup

We’re now offering no contact pickup service. Place your order online or over the phone at 501-666-3333. When you’re ready to pick up your order, give us a call and let us know that you’d like to take advantage of no contact pickup. We’ll get your order ready and bring it to your car and place it in the backseat or trunk, depending on your preference. 

Free No Contact Delivery

Our delivery drivers will be calling each recipient and giving them the option to accept the delivery in person or to have it left outside their house or at a reception desk to retrieve later.
