What Kritz Excavating & Trucking, Inc supplies

Excavating outfits frequently sell and haul fill dirt, topsoil and aggregate alongside their site work. For larger volumes they are often cheaper than a retail yard because they are already running trucks.

Clean fill, structural fill and screened topsoil are distinct products at very different prices. Be explicit about which you need, and whether the material must be certified clean for your jurisdiction.

Full-line landscape supply yards stock soil, mulch, decorative stone, boulders, pavers, edging and often sod under one roof. That matters when a project needs several materials, because combining them into a single delivery avoids paying separate trip charges to multiple suppliers.

Because Kritz Excavating & Trucking, Inc 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

Fill and excavation services is sold by the load. Contractors usually quote material and haulage together by the load, so per-load pricing is the number to compare.

As a rough guide: 1 tandem load covers about 10–12 yards; 1 tri-axle load covers about 14–16 yards; 1 pickup covers about 1 yard.

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 93 reviews on file, 86 are five-star (92%) and 3 are four-star. 3 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 California, this rating places Kritz Excavating & Trucking, Inc in the top 43%.

Across the 17 suppliers we list in Paso Robles, the average rating is 4.4.

Review volume matters as much as the score. A 4.8 drawn from 93 reviews reflects a substantial track record.

Hours and visiting the yard

Kritz Excavating & Trucking, Inc is open 6 days a week, closed on Sunday. The yard opens as early as 7 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 California

California'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 fill and excavation services, 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.
