$48 for 1 Cubic Yard of Top Soil (50/50 compost) They charged us for the Planter Compost Plus & worm casings, Im sure it's good quality, but it's NOT $30 like the other picture on here shows. We paid anyways , then he used 2 small forklift size scoops, he said the other Too Soil is a blend of dirt & clay, we definitely didn't want that! Anyways he only filled up 1/3 of the back of our short bed truck, when I said we paid for 1 cubic yard, he said if he puts anymore, CHP would pull us over on the way home and they would not be responsible for that. It is what is it. At least it was quick & easy to get in & out. read more

I paid $132 for 1/4 cord of firewood. Ricky, the son of the business owners, loaded it into my trailer using the scoop of their loader as measurement. It didn't look quite right, but he assured me it was accurate. I realized he had shorted me by at least 40% after unloading and stacking the firewood. I have a measured rack that takes 1/4 cord of correctly cut wood. The stuff he sold me was short, not standard cut, and did not fill the rack. I called their office and left a message, no call back. A couple of hours later and more calls I finally spoke with Ricky. I tried to explain what was going on and he blew me off saying that's how they do it. I am sure if they stacked the wood in the loader it would be 1/4 cord, but just throwing it in doesn't get a full load. So he didn't want to make it right in any manner possible. I hoped he would at least try, he decided to just blow me off. That's OK, the nice folks at Visa will be taking care of it for me. I won't go back again. So in summary: they take your money, sell you less than stated, and know what they're doing. read more

Very honest on their firewoods. They'll let you know if the woods are good or if it's still wet from the rain. Also great value for the amount of woods you get for the price. Literally my go to spot for woods. read more

I purchased red oak firewood for a BBQ birthday party. I asked if the wood was seasoned as I was smoking a ton of meat. I was clearly told that it was seasoned and ready to burn. What a disaster! Hardly any of the wood caught! There was so much moisture inside the wood. It just smoldered. I had to run to the store and use just pure charcoal. What a waste of my time and money. Never again! read more

Great hardwood at a good price for bulk purchases. The people here are nice and take care to answer your questions. Thanks again, I'll be back soon. read more

Best place around the area to get your firewood needs. If they are not in the office go down a little ways and you'll usually spot them moving fertilizer around SO FLAG THEM DOWN. They are very nice and helpful with loading the wood too. read more

I finally discovered this place after wasting tons of money buying garden soil at Home Depot. I didn't have a truck to load the compost in, so Rick, the guy who runs the yard, was kind enough to fill up some trash cans with compost for me. $10 for two trash cans full of compost! Not bad! The compost was well aged and cured, had a fresh smell, and my heirloom tomato plants LOVED it!! I also bought a quarter cord of firewood from here, and it was really good quality. I want to say it was a mixture of pine and eucalyptus. There was more eucalyptus than pine, and the pine logs were perfect for getting the eucalyptus logs going for a nice hot fire. This place is local gold to me. I'll be going back this year for their planter mix to fill my raised beds. read more

The best customer service! It's a family owned business! The mom and the son are great they went above and beyond to accommodate us! Great prices for mulch and soil! The best in the county! read more

Not the cheapest, but since it was closest to home, bought fertilizer, top soil, and DG (Decomposed Granite) by the yard. Park your car in front of the bugalow, and the staff will help you decide how much you need. They have a delivery option, but charge at least at extra $50. If you can borrow your friend's truck, the staff will load it on the truck for you. read more

This facility offers not only landscaping supplies but also storage for RVs. I was building a garden box and needed a significant amount of compost. After going to Home Depot first, I was pleasantly surprised by the options available here and the customer service. Prices are extremely reasonable and the owner was happy to help me load my truck, tie down my tarp and give me some advice regarding hauling the material. I am a happy customer and will be coming back for more. read more

After looking for a closer place for a supply of bulk compost to Long Beach than driving to Whitter Fertilizer in Pico Rivera, I decided to tak a chance at Artesia Fertlizer.The rates their higher end compost plus with worm castings ($27/yard) seemed reasonable. I went out to the lot and was loaded quickly. At a cursory glance, the compost seemed fine. When I got home and started unloading, that is when I realized how bad the "compost" actually was. Each shovelful I unloaded had rocks close to an inch in size. To make matters worse, I found multiple pieces of trash - mainly plastic sprinkler parts, and a few wrappers/trash. The compost had large pieces of not fully composted manure that needed to be broken down more. I should have returned it, but I was already behind in working and decided it would be easier to just clean it out and let it break down more. Avoid this place! Go to H&H Nursery for bagged product or Whittier Fertilizer if you need a lot of bulk. read more

Nice bundle of seasoned firewood... $10. We got the mixed lot, unknown hardwood. One bundle here is two small bundles from the store. Maybe 18"x10"x18" total volume? About 10-13 pieces, Oak here is a bit more expensive. I think by two dollars or just a few more. Wood burn clean and easy. As in not pops and wild sparks over a campfire. read more

Built some raised beds for veggies in our backyard, and needed to buy bulk quality soil to fill approximately an 8ftx4ftx2ft area. Basically WAY too much to have to buy bags of potting soil for. I'd researched FOREVER for a place to buy this much soil, and always came up short (mind you I looked as far as Whittier) and all the garden shops in my area (Armstrong's, H&H) couldn't give me a name of a place to fill my raised beds. By happenstance I think I was looking into getting some firewood for a camping trip, or backyard bbq, and stumbled upon this place. Turns out, not only was it pretty close to us in Long Beach, but my parents actually store their RV there! They store RV's, trailers, boats etc AND mainly sell bulk soil, firewood, mulch and decomposed granite. We rented a truck from Lowe's and filled it up with all the dirt we needed in 2 trips for just $80!!! Buying bags of soil for both beds would have cost well over $300! Basically you just pull up your truck, and they sell by the yard or half yard. They dump it into your truck bed, and off you go. They no longer deliver, and they have the name and number of a guy who will deliver for you, but when we asked him, he quoted us at least $150. We went to Lowe's and got a truck for $19 for 1hr30min (assuming you buy something, which we did with a $40 wheelbarrow that we needed anyway). Best place to take care of all your gardening/landscaping material needs, or just firewood for the season. read more

Bonfire with firewood from Artesia Fertilizer capped off a great graduation party. Thanks Artesia Fertilizer. Will be back before the 4th of July. read more

Excellent place! For years I was buying garden soil at Home Depot, spending lots of money. I discovered this place from a Craigslist Ad, wanted to give it a shot, and so, I bought 2 yards of the Planter Mix Plus with Worm Castings for $80 ($40 per Yard). It's a nice soil that drains well and stays moist during those hot days. I saved a lot of money, and Im ready to grow my vegetables in my raised beds! Very friendly service... just pull right in, tell them what you want and they'll load you up! I'll return here for all of my soil needs in the future! -Gabriel read more

I was very impressed with the friendliness and staff. They took time to show me around their very clean facility and very helpful. I can't wait to go back again. read more

I got a couple yards of DG last week. And their price and services is really good. The delivery was on time and the Rick the delivery guy was so nice he even dumped it where it was easy for me to haul it to my back yard. I would definitely recommend this place and won't mind doing business with them again. read more

I needed to mulch my backyard to keep the weeds out and moist in. I called to get an estimate and the lady helped me figure out how much I needed. When it arrived I was disappointed that they couldn't deliver to my backyard as I arranged for when I made the order. They ended up dumping everything in my driveway because the driver said he was in a hurry and needed to make the delivery. The receipt I got from him clearly said delivery "backyard". He gave me the option to take back the order since the mulch was in a dump truck. I had to wheel barrel the entire thing to my backyard one trip at a time. I talked to them to see if we could reverse the delivery fee since it wasn't delivered as arrange. They were able to reverse half because they "spent gas to get here"...which I live about a mile from where they are at. The material itself is good but the communication within needs a bit of improvement. The supervisor said he would work on with his staff (hopefully so others don't go through what I went through) I would suggest You ask follow up questions since they take the order and deliver as is. read more
