Martin Bros Supply

Great local company. I have bought quite a bit of soil here– great quality and they deliver. They also have a feed store where they sell all sorts of animal feed including organic chicken feed. The prices are good. The service is alway helpful and pleasant.

I just read the Unilocal reviews for this place and saw two: one saying it’s a great place to weigh your vehicle, and the other tearing a hole in the business, for not having some sort of credit memo on file.
OK — I’ve got to weigh in.
This place is great! I’ve purchased dirt, fire wood, bark chips and pallets of rocks from Martin Brothers. Last month I spent $ 1700 here, and I’ve probably had twenty or more transactions here over the past eight years, so I think I’m qualified to comment.
I shop here not just to support a locally-​owned business, but because, if you’re looking for dirt, gravel and rocks, Martin Brothers’ pricing — and selection — is great. And the folks behind the counter — and in the yard — have always provided me with great customer service.
PS — You know, I bet they DID misplace that credit memo the other reviewer mentioned (though sounds like he misplaced his own copy too!) That’s because this is a farm supply store, not some fancy shop in a mall. Martin Brothers is what it is, and I highly recommend it.

I came here to have SUV weighted since in order to get a commercial plate I need to have the car weighted. So DMV gave me this business and I came here waited about 5 min and that was it. To those of you who need to have their car weighted for DMV issues there is no need to go into SF or Oakland port to do that! Martin Bros Supply can do that just fine. Save you a long drive.

I like their products but their customer service leaves something to be desired. I had a store credit and they «can’t find my receipt» because it is buried somewhere in their records. They said if I didn’t have the paper receipt showing the credit then they couldn’t honor the credit. However… they never gave me a receipt with the credit amount. I asked them if they would at least let me have a ¼ yard of gravel and they said no. I said even if I write a poor (true) review on Unilocal that will far surpass the dollar amounts they will lose from negative press and they still refused. Kind of a bummer. So here it is. I’m a local who supports local business. I won’t support theirs from now on.
