Who supplies Home Depot with patio pavers & retaining wall block?

Question

I work for a company that does this kind of business. I know it's not my company, but was just wondering who does their products come from?

Answer 1

the concrete cast products business is regional in nature, not national.

that's because the product weighs too much to haul more than a few hundred miles, even in semi-tractor loads.

you can likely find these suppliers through the major cement makers ... concrete cast products firms buy cement in railroad car lots. they may decline to respond unless you ask on your company's letterhead.

there are other resources as well ... business to business directories, for example.


if you're willing to be a bit sneaky, watch the supply of product at your local HD. When it gets low, ask the garden department manager when he expects to have more available [esp. if he knows you as a customer already]. Then watch the store the day/night before the expected delivery and see whose truck delivers it.
