Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Will the delivery driver spread the material?
A1: The driver can perform a tailgate spread upon request and will do their best to distribute the material evenly. However, you will be responsible for any final adjustments to ensure the project meets your expectations.
Q2: Can I pick up material myself?
A2: Yes, we load materials into dump trucks and trailers using a large loader. Please note that we do not load pickup trucks, but you are welcome to hand-load them yourself. Large boulders are loaded with an excavator. Be sure to bring the proper equipment to secure your load, such as tarps and tie-down straps. A minimum fee of $35 per load applies.
Q3: Where do I go to pick up material?
A3: We have multiple mines located throughout Grays Harbor, Mason and Pacific Counties. Some are open daily while others are open on demand. Visit our "Pit Locations" page for the most up-to-date operation hours by site.
Q4: Do I need an appointment to pick up material?
A4: No, an appointment is not necessary unless you're picking up large boulders (Two-Man Rock and larger). For these, please give us minimum 2-3 days' notice to ensure the boulders are readily available.
Q5: What is the latest I can arrive before closing to ensure a loader is available?
A5: In general, each location is open from 7 AM - 3 PM, weekdays only. Our main office is located at the Newskah Quarry in Aberdeen and is open 8 AM - 4 PM, weekdays only. When you are picking up material, please be at the site no later than 2:30 PM. This will ensure that you have enough time to get loaded and scale out before closing.
