What R.a.D. Trucking, Ltd. supplies

Bulk suppliers sell loose material by volume, which becomes markedly cheaper than bagged product once a project passes a few cubic yards.

Confirm exactly which product you are quoting — screened topsoil, fill dirt, compost blends and aggregate are priced very differently.

Because R.a.D. Trucking, Ltd. 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

Bulk landscape materials is sold by the cubic yard. Confirm coverage rates for your project depth before ordering.

As a rough guide: 1 yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 in; 5 yards covers about 540 sq ft at 3 in; 10 yards covers about 1,080 sq ft at 3 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.

Ratings and reputation

Of the 10 reviews on file, 3 are five-star (30%) and 4 are four-star. 2 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 Texas, this rating places R.a.D. Trucking, Ltd. in the top 92%.

Across the 26 suppliers we list in New Braunfels, the average rating is 4.3.

Review volume matters as much as the score. A 3.6 drawn from 10 reviews rests on a small sample, so weigh it accordingly.

Hours and visiting the yard

R.a.D. Trucking, Ltd. is open 7 days a week. The yard opens as early as 8 AM and runs until 5 PM.

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 Texas

Texas'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 bulk landscape materials, 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.
