FAQ

Do you deliver during heat waves?

Yes — deliveries run straight through July heat waves, with routes rolling from 7 AM to beat the worst of the day. Heat doesn't stop a dump truck. It does change how you should work: book a morning window, spread mulch promptly rather than letting the pile sit in full sun, and water beds after spreading. Loam and stone don't mind the sun at all — only your spreading crew does.

Hot-weather order tips

  • Take the earliest window you can — same-day is possible on orders before 10:30 AM
  • Split big spreading jobs across two mornings instead of one brutal afternoon
  • Water beds after mulching to settle everything and cool the soil
