I ordered 7 yds of dark Forrest expecting to complete my garden project and plant the seedlings i started from Seed in their new home. The delivery driver was awesome, polite and very helpful. Dumped the soil directly on the tarp i had placed down. That's the good, unfortunately the soil was so hot i won't be able to plant for who knows how long, but it wont be this season. Over 50 seedlings with no soil to put them in. Their solution, buy inexpensive potting soil to top off the ammonia rich soil until it completes its composting cycle. More expense. VERY DISAPPOINTED. VERY! read more

The customer service team is very professional, courageous, helpful and friendly. I highly recommend them for any landscaping needs and to anyone looking for landscaping materials you go to Minick's! read more

I would like to thank the sales lady Tiffany for explaining to me the difference between the two topsoil. For I had no idea that one had rocks in it and one was clean, Thanks a lot. Myron read more

I ordered red select. They provided me unscreened. They charged for 12 cubic yards, they shorted me on every load ... EVERY load (my calculations, my experienced dirtworked assessment). The trucks used to deliver were adequate for delivering the 12 cubic yards/load. They will not call me back after I talked with a supervisor to discuss these issues or to try to make their wrong "right". BIG RIPOFF. And we did many many loads from another company, got what I ordered, got the yardage charged for, etc. I would never recommend Minick Materials even though I was told this was where to go if I wanted specific dirt. read more

Let me tell you something, this place was awesome and the workers were even better. We went to look at some rock. The guy running the forklifts and front end loader suggested a new product to mix with river rock and it was a home run. He really knew his rock. The girls in the front treated us just as good. They didn't make me feel unwelcome because I wasn't a big time contractor. I've been to the Santa Fe store a few times but I will drive the extra 25 min to give them my business. People make a difference. Great job staff you have a lifetime customer. Thanks. read more

We had a rather large dent, hole, trench, whatever you want to call it in our backyard. When we were looking to purchase our house, we noticed it. But, we just thought that the ground was the way it was due to a tree casting shade... uhm no. This hole would collect up to 8 inches of water during the unusually wet spring we had this 2019. Fearing the unintentional water feature would devalue property, be host to a massive mosquito orgy and lead to the death of an already sick looking tree, we had to do something. Upon the recommendation of someone, I contacted Minick. After about 3 or 4 conversations, measurements, complex math equations, and more measurements, I was confident that we had the right place for dirt. We ordered 3.5 tons (that's 7,000 lbs of soil) to fill the giant hole. The dirt was $38 per ton, delivery was another $98. So all in all, not too bad. They delivered on a Saturday, and had a contingency plan if it rained... i.e. set up delivery another day. We prepped the drive way with a tarp... as we would be responsible for trekking it to the backyard, and a driver deposited the dirt. He was very nice and mindful of making sure to not crack the driveway with the truck. So far, we are happy with the dirt. It has done its job. My next project involves some river rock and raised bed gardens. Minick will be my first call. read more

Needed some topsoil to raise the level of a 20x20 area in my backyard and to cover some new grass seed. Minick loaded my Tacoma very carefully with a yard of soil. I was worried about using my nice truck but they did not damage my rolltop cover or side rails. I was able to unload my truck at home and spread the new soil very easily. I am very happy with my purchase and will be back for my future soil purchases. read more

As many of you know, I'm a gardener. (Some might even say that I'm an obsessive gardener.) I have found that when I start a gardening project...I usually need way more dirt/compost* than I originally planned for and that is when I go to Minick. If you're a small-scale gardener, the big box stores will probably suit your needs. However, if you're like me and need hundreds...or even thousands of pounds...of dirt or compost, l highly recommend Minick. Their prices are very fair and they offer a quality product. On my most recent visit, I decided to get 2 bulldozer loads of compost for my garden. (I have been in the process of rebuilding my backyard garden and needed to fill 3 large raised-bed garden boxes.) Not only was the compost of exceptional quality, it was extremely affordable. (2 bulldozer loads cost me $31) If you're gardening on a large scale, you will immediately appreciate the savings. The people at Minick were extremely friendly and the process was quick. From the moment I arrived at Minick until the moment I was swiping my card took approximately 15 minutes. Overall, I have been extremely satisfied on all of my visits to Minick. I will definitely be back. *Minick doesn't only offer dirt and compost. They also offer decorative pots, birdbaths, and stone.* read more

I ordered 10 yards of Dark Forest compost. The price was good for cost per yard. The quote included shipping. It seemed high on the total but what ever. I was told to expect a call and delivery in about 4 days or so. It arrived on time and was dropped on my driveway. All was good until I looked at the actual shipping charge. I was billed for yellow zone 15-20 miles $150.00. I live 6 miles away. I emailed for an explanation. I was told that "it was a big load (12 yards is big?) so it had to come from another location that was further away." I wish I had been given a heads up on a $50 upcharge for delivery compared to their own map. The product is good and what I wanted. I just have a bad taste in my mouth about the shipping. I'll probably go back to my old supplier. I thought their charge of $50 for a 2 mile delivery was high. Live and learn. read more

I just bought a few pots here today. You have to go inside to pay. None of the workers are wearing a mask. It took the young lady about 10 minutes to ring me up. She had to come within 1 foot of me to take pictures of the numbers on the pots. She did not wear a mask, so I stepped outside and just came in every few minutes to see if I could pay. This evidently bothered her, as she was rude to me. Will shop elsewhere in the future. read more

I was looking for some chip gravel at Lowe's, Home Depot, similar stores - they only had pea gravel in store, and I like to see what I'm buying, so I decided to look elsewhere. I found Minick and it's the best place ever! Got three buckets of beautiful gravel for ~$7! And they had a great selection. It was also super fast. Going to come here for all future projects. read more

Sharp and smart operation. They were able to load one ton of dirt in my pickup truck with ease. No hassle with any of the staff, very friendly and easy to work with. I've waited longer at restaurants for lunch compared to how fast they were able to get me in and out of there. Great selection of materials. I'll definitely pay them another visit. read more
