This place is amazing and I don’t know why it has 3.7 stars. From the office lady (Jessica) and to our truck driver David who delivered our minus rock, they’re all so sweet. And what a plus that they’re all about supporting our veterans. We will be using them again and again in the future. Thank you city bark and thank you David for being such a pro at dropping loads off!! Makes our big projects a little less daunting!

I had 4 yards of mason sand delivered on time with fair pricing and great service by the delivery person. Other suppliers in the area were out of mason sand for a few weeks so I went with City Bark when I wouldnt otherwise and they came through. Thank you.

Location is not bad depending on the neighborhood you live in. I do feel bad for WINCO on those really hot days the manufacturing of some of the products attracts flies.The bark dust and rock products are good quality. The compost Im not a fan of has a lot of larger stuff in it that I wasnt very cool with.

Great place. Takes care of those that served the nation and community. Owner was a US Navy Seabee. I was also. Members of a small community of hard working sailors. We build We fight . If only those that wrote negative reviews because of their blind hate and bigotry knew about the Seabees and who we are they would remove their hateful comments.

They honor vets by taking yard waste and wood scrap for free. Saved me quite a bit in dump fees. I buy all my landscaping products from them.

DO NOT BUY FIREWOOD HERE!!!I called in advance to ask if their wood was seasoned and dry and the lady in the office told me yes. After buying a yard, I found that it was too wet to burn. I went back and explained and the gal in the office assured me that the wood was kept dry undercover, so i thought maybe it was a fluke or just a few pieces so I bought another scoop, SHAME ON ME. It also was too wet to burn, so I started splitting it, and half of it smelled and felt like fresh cut wood! My axe kept getting stuck in the wood and squeezing water out of it. Either the office lady lied to my face, or her boss is lying to her. Either way, someone is lying cause this wood is good for putting fires out. Save yourself the trouble and shop around.

Like the website and pricing. I spoke with the girl who answered the phone for delivery and she has horrible phone etiquette and has zero customer service skills. She talked like a half asleep, angry 13-year-old girl who hates her job/chores.

The man who helps out with scrap metal is extremely rude and will openly complain about you to your face. We have stopped by before as he was about to go on break, which he complained about, and so when he was nowhere to be found today we went to the office to check. We thought he might be on a break again which was totally ok, found he he had gone to the bathroom. When we pulled back around we told him we didn’t have much stuff and he openly complained saying “it’s always the people who only have about $5 in scrap that are in such a big hurry” and was generally rude and short. We were not in a hurry but since no one was in the back we wanted to make sure that someone was there at all. Not only this but the whole perimeter of the place was covered in at least a dozen or more blue lives matter flags until recently.

I got ripped off. Bought a yard of gravel and they said it’s no problem to take half the gravel the day of purchase and the other half when needed. Showed up today and they refused to give me my other half or refund my money for it. Said it was not picked up within the “allotted time of 30 days.” I looked at my receipt and apparently it had been 35 days. I don’t think it’s legal for them to keep money for something not received. I’m going to find out.

Great customer service here. I went in to the office to look at the different materials they have for sale (gravel, sand, etc) and determined that crushed concrete was the way to go for my patio. The load arrived as scheduled but was composed of significantly larger pieces than were shown as samples in the office. I mentioned this to the delivery driver, Brent, who made a call, and City Bark & Recycling brought me an additional two yards of material that would work for my project, free of charge. I will definitely be coming back here in the future when I order more gravel, more wood chips, and more sand for my other projects. Thanks again guys.

Review №29

MISLEAD AND PRICE GOUGED. I do not recommend taking anything except green (grass and leaves) to this place. I called multiple times before we came here to confirm prices to bring pine branches from freshly fallen trees and was told by multiple people that it would be $11 a yard (50% of the usually $22 due to a special) or $7 if it was just chips. When my husband arrived with around 6 yards of branches he was told something completely different and charged $157.I am leaving a 1 star review because when I called to speak to the manager about the discrepancy they simply told me that we were charged the correct price and we had been mislead into thinking it was going to cost the yard debris price. They made zero effort to account for the lack of training (managers job) and the fact that multiple people quoted us this price. They didnt apologize for their disorganized customer service, this place is profiting off of it so beware. Quoted price cant be trusted.

Bought 20 yards of dark fine bark. Very courteous staff. The driver called ahead so I would have my spot ready. He placed it exactly where I needed it, no overflowing off tarps or on the gravel. Dark fines were a very nice clean product. I will use them again!

I did have an unpleasant experience once when we did not make a transaction. We got there and their doors were open. We went in a man told us they were close. Now i don’t mind turning around, your close, I understand. What I cant stand is the authority that you let off and tell us to turn around and go to Portland. Portland? Why would I waste gas and go to Portland. Instead of been humble and helpful his aura felt very macho like and unpleasant.Now when going in to purchase there is only young lady in the front that’s nice, they do have some variety and good price. Despite that horrible encounter the daily staff is way nicer. Be the judge for yourself.

Ive been stopping in here and there recently getting sand, gravel, 3-way and mulch for a bunch of projects we have going on the yard. My experiences have been great! The woman at the desk is always nice, the price for yards and 1/2 yards is great and the product has been good as well. Ill always come here when I need yard materials.

Lied to me about delivery coming out right now. Charged me $130 dollars for a tiny pile of dirt. Very dissatisfied. I would pack bags in my car before I ever used this service again. If I could add a photo to show how pathetic and outrageous the charge for the tiny pile of dirt I received I would. Go elsewhere!. $50 dollar charge and was going to try and charge me another $50 on top of that. Outrageous!!

They accepted an old treadmill no problem and gave me cash for it. Better than paying the dump cash to take it. Looks like they have some good dirt and rocks on hand as well.

Review №43

Nasty and overpriced firewood, was charged $102 ($95 + tax) for a 1/3 chord of firewood. When I called I spoke to a woman who said by who I was told it was seasoned and dry. It was anything but dry. It was wet and muddy like it had been scooped from a field. I couldnt see that since it was wrapped with plastic. The only reason I would rate a one was the guy who loaded it into my truck was courteous.I really needed a little more firewood to get through this season so I had to settle for this. Never again. I can usually can get a 1/2 chord delivered for $100 if I shop around.

Review №45

The cashier in the front kinda cute but her cuteness is quickly overruled by her extreme rudeness and big time lack of customer service skills. She must be the owners kid or something!! The loader guy is awesome the prices are pretty good and the guys that receive the scrap metal are very friendly and do their job well . 5 stars to all of them except for the cashier. Give her the boot.

I ordered a yard of cedar chips today, they delivered within a half hour. When I started to move it to play area I found quite a bit of garden soil in it, made about a third of it unusable for kids play yard. I gave them a call and they gave me another load within 15 minutes. Thanks for the terrific service city bark!

Review №52

Due to a communication error by the City Bark, the dropbox delivered would not accommodate the purpose for which it was ordered. Contacted the company the same day and was promised a full refund. After reviewing my visa statement, I noticed that I was not given a full refund as promised. The amount returned was short $200. Contacted agent at the business who told me I was out of luck. She claims that I was clearly informed that I would not be refunded the full amount. This is simply not true. I am very disappointed, I feel like Ive been lied to, taken advantage of and stolen from.

Surprisingly diverse services including scrap metal purchase. The downside is that they may take some liberty with the type of metal. For example a scrap electric lawn mower they paid the rate for tin rather than copper or steel.

I got there just before 6 PM. Two guys were getting ready to close the gate. They wouldnt let me in. I begged them to let me dump because I had driven all the way from Ridgefield and I need my trailer in the morning. They said I couldnt dump because she had already counted the till. Why are they counting the till before 6 PM? Are they open until 6 PM, or not? It looked to me like the employees were a little too anxious to get off work. It was a huge inconvenience and expense for me.

We own a small tree business. Went in this morning with our dump truck (3 1/4 yards) full of 90% chips with a few branches on top. They measured and I told both cashier and the guy measuring what was in there. She told me $77.00 dollars!! We left and went to H & H, where we were charged $17.00 for the same load!! If you are a small tree or landscape (or large for that matter) business you cant pay City Bark prices and hope to stay in business. Spoke with management there and was basically told Thats just the way it is. Ridiculous!!

Just got 5 years of 3 way compost delivered. It smells like a garbage dump. It looks great but the smell! I dont want to put my hands in it. The yard boss was not helpful at all. If this is just yard debris, bark and sand why does it smell like trash?
