Bedrock Sand and Gravel

Bedrock Sand and Gravel runs a sand and gravel yard in Glendale, Arizona, selling to both trade and retail customers.

The business holds a 4.4-star Google rating from 152 reviews. That tracks close to the Arizona average of 4.5 across the 424 suppliers we list statewide.

What Bedrock Sand and Gravel supplies

Aggregate yards carry crushed stone, pea gravel, road base, mason sand, concrete sand and structural fill. Material is graded by particle size, and the correct grade depends entirely on whether you are building a compacted base, a drainage layer or a walking surface.

Road base (often called crusher run or 21AA) compacts hard and is the right choice under pavers or driveways. Clean washed stone such as #57 drains freely and is used for French drains and trench backfill. Pea gravel looks good underfoot but migrates and needs edging to stay put.

Because Bedrock Sand and Gravel carries several material lines, it is often possible to combine an order across products — soil, mulch and stone on one truck — rather than paying separate delivery charges to two or three different yards.

How much material you need

Sand and gravel is sold by the ton. Aggregate is sold by weight, not volume — one cubic yard of crushed stone runs roughly 1.4 tons.

As a rough guide: 1 ton covers about 100 sq ft at 2 in; 5 tons covers about 500 sq ft at 2 in; 20 tons covers about 2,000 sq ft at 2 in.

Order slightly over rather than under. Coming up short means a second delivery charge, which almost always costs more than the extra material would have.

Ordering and delivery

Delivery pricing usually keys off distance from the yard, so confirm both the charge to your address and any minimum load before comparing quotes.

Check where the truck can actually dump. Tandem trucks need overhead clearance and firm ground, and most drivers will not reverse across a soft lawn or a new driveway. If access is tight, ask whether they run a smaller truck or can leave the load at the kerb.

Pricing for bulk material is rarely published in full, since it moves with stock and season. The business website may list current products, but a phone call will get you a firm delivered number faster.

Ratings and reputation

Of the 152 reviews on file, 113 are five-star (74%) and 17 are four-star. 16 reviews sit at one or two stars, and those are worth reading directly — complaints at material yards usually concern delivery timing or short loads rather than the product itself.

Among the suppliers we list across Arizona, this rating places Bedrock Sand and Gravel in the top 67%.

Across the 22 suppliers we list in Glendale, the average rating is 4.6.

Review volume matters as much as the score. A 4.4 drawn from 152 reviews reflects a substantial track record.

Hours and visiting the yard

Bedrock Sand and Gravel is open 6 days a week, closed on Sunday. The yard opens as early as 6 AM and runs until 4 PM, early enough to load before a normal work day begins.

Saturday opening makes this a practical option for weekend projects — a real advantage, since plenty of bulk yards shut for the weekend and leave homeowners unable to collect material outside working hours.

Loading is weather-dependent whatever the posted hours say. Heavy rain turns yards to mud and makes wet material heavier and harder to spread, so call the same morning if conditions look poor.

Best time to buy in Arizona

Arizona's longer growing season spreads demand across more of the year, which generally means better availability than northern markets. Even so, spring remains the peak for sand and gravel, and summer heat makes midday loading and installation punishing — early-morning pickups are worth the alarm clock. Autumn and winter are frequently the best value windows, with shorter queues and more flexible delivery scheduling.

Other suppliers nearby

There are 6 other suppliers we list within a short drive, the closest being Cutting Edge Curbing Sand & Rock in Glendale, roughly 1 miles away. 151 suppliers sit within a 25-mile radius of this yard.

Pricing the same material at two or three yards is usually worth the phone calls. Bulk rates move with stock on hand, and delivery radius often decides which supplier is genuinely cheapest to your address.
