Materials for Glendale homes, hillsides and commercial pads

Commercial and multi-unit work

Base under parking lots and pads, washed sand for utility bedding, crushed rock for drainage behind retaining walls. Orders bigger than one truck go out across more than one load, scheduled as the phase needs them, seven days a week.

Hillside neighborhoods

Adams Hill, Rossmoyne, Verdugo Woodlands, Chevy Chase Canyon and Glenoaks Canyon all climb, and some of those streets are tight for a 10 wheel truck. The access check in the questions below is worth doing before you order for a hillside address.

A city with its own building department

Glendale runs its own permits and inspections through the city. If the plans call for a particular base or fill under a slab or behind a wall, call 800‑777‑6299 and read us the spec before the first load.

How delivery to Glendale works

12 miles from our yard

Our trucks run out of the yard in San Fernando down the 5 and in on the 134, or down the 2 for the north end of town. Enter your ZIP and you see what we deliver to your address, with delivery already in the price.

One to ten yards a load

Minimum order is one cubic yard. Each 10 wheel dump truck carries up to 10 cubic yards of most materials, less by weight for heavier products such as Class 2 base. Bigger orders go out across more than one load.

Access on flats and hillsides

The truck needs about 12 feet of clear width, firm level ground and open sky over the drop spot, because the bed lifts to roughly 22 feet to tip. Watch for low wires and branches, and mark the spot with a stake or a cone.

Glendale, street by street

Our delivery ZIPs for Glendale are 91201 through 91208, which cover the city from Grand Central and Riverside Rancho along the river, through downtown and the Brand Boulevard corridor, up to Adams Hill, Rossmoyne, Verdugo Woodlands and Glenoaks Canyon. Montrose, 91020, and La Crescenta, 91214, up the Verdugo grade are inside the area too. Box ZIPs such as 91209 are post office boxes only, so use your street ZIP when you order.

On the flats the drop is usually simple, with curb space on the day the only thing to arrange. The hills are the thing to think about. Streets in Adams Hill, Chevy Chase Canyon and Glenoaks Canyon narrow as they climb and are short on turnaround room, so for those addresses call 800‑777‑6299 with the address before you order.

Glendale delivery questions

If yours is not covered here, call and ask.

Call us at 800-777-6299

Yes. Glendale is inside our delivery area, ZIPs 91201 through 91208, along with Montrose and La Crescenta, on our own 10 wheel dump trucks out of San Fernando. Enter your ZIP at the top of the page to see what we deliver to your address, or call 800‑777‑6299.

Orders placed before midnight go out the next day, seven days a week. Delays do happen, and location plays a part, so if one hits your order we let you know. For a particular day, say so when you order or call 800‑777‑6299.

Yes. Each 10 wheel truck carries up to 10 cubic yards of most materials, less by weight for heavier products such as Class 2 base, and bigger orders simply go out across more than one truck. Each truck carries one material per delivery, so order base and sand as separate items and they arrive as separate loads. For a particular day or sequence, say so when you order or call 800‑777‑6299.

The truck needs the clear width and overhead room described above, and firm level ground where it tips. Some streets in Adams Hill, Chevy Chase Canyon and Glenoaks Canyon are tight for that, so call 800‑777‑6299 with the address before you order and we will talk it through.

91201, 91202, 91203, 91204, 91205, 91206, 91207 and 91208 for Glendale street addresses, plus 91020 for Montrose and 91214 for La Crescenta. Box ZIPs such as 91209 are post office boxes only, so order with the ZIP the property sits in.

One cubic yard, the same as everywhere we deliver, so a single yard of decomposed granite for a path goes out to Glendale as readily as ten yards of base for a slab. Each 10 wheel truck holds up to 10 cubic yards of most materials, less by weight for heavier products such as Class 2 base, and bigger orders go across more than one truck.

Yes. The price you see on each material is the delivered price to your Glendale address, and nothing is added for freight at checkout.

Every price on the site is already the delivered price, with nothing added for freight at checkout. Enter your ZIP at the top of the page, pick the material, and price the job as the cubic yards you need times the price per yard. A full truckload is up to 10 cubic yards of most materials, the minimum order is one cubic yard, and the cubic yards calculator works out the yards from length, width and depth.
