We Love to Talk Dirt!
Obert & Kaye Einevoll came to California in 1963 from Bagley, Minnesota. Obert went to work for Parker Robb Chevrolet doing body & fender work. Their dream was to have their own business someday. Coming from farming families, hard work is what they knew. In 1968 the opportunity came and they purchased Contra Costa Sludge as well as a contract with Central Contra Costa Sanitary district to manage the sewer sludge. At that time sludge was used as a soil amendment. As time went on sludge was discontinued being used as a soil amendment. The Contra Costa area grew and so did their business. They began handling more products and began mixing their own soil and soil blends. As soil became their predominant product, they changed the business name to Contra Costa Topsoil.
They worked hard and created a success for themselves and their family. Kaye is now retired and happy to be doing her own thing. Obert never did retire completely, nor would he ever have but due to his health he was forced to and passed away in 2017.
Our business is still family owned and operated by their children.

Still wowing me! It's time for bark again. I ordered over the phone with Tonja and she was awesome to work with. Scheduling was easy and she kept in touch with me via text regarding delivery logistics. Once we had everything set, I was able to pay by phone and the driver showed up soon after. It's clear to me that the people at this company pride themselves on providing excellent customer service and support from beginning to end. Plus, they're just nice.
Delivery- he was so incredibly friendly and accommodating. I wanted the bark dumped in two different areas, that aren't easy to access because our road is pretty narrow, and it was no problem for him at all. He has some mad truck maneuvering skills! Don't be afraid to ask them for what you need.

Been getting rock, soil and chips here for years. Much easier than County quarry and less expensive than Mt Diablo Landscape.
On top of that, This is a local family run business, happy to support and be a part of. Martinez community!

I have tried some other local places for soil and mulch and have been disappointed. However, here at Contra Costa Topsoil they offer premium customer service and quality products. Here they appreciate my business and money. They show that in the speed of response and quality of the product that they deliver. If you are looking for planter box mix, this is a good one. It retains moisture well. It is has the right blend of forest, soil, and porosity mixes. In a recent landscaping project, our contractors sent a delivery from a different company after we told them to use Contra Costa. Good thing that i was home, because we sent them away and called CCT. Luckily they were able to help us out of a bind and deliver it same day.
What did I learn today? Give them a call when you want to make your purchase. It seems like one on is in the actual office there to take the order.

Absolutely 5 star! The staff was so helpful and accommodating. They treat their customers like family. The mulch is beautiful, it is great quality and makes the entire front of our house look amazing!
Delivery was quick easy and very impressive placing exactly where we wanted it.
Thank you so much for the great service, we will definitely be back!

I have relied on this soil company for years in my landscaping. They are friendly, knowledgeable, quick, and have the best prices in the county for excellent soil compositions.
I noticed a couple of poor reviews and would urge others to consider the source. I am saddened when people review based on their particular personal emotional needs rather than the product they are reviewing. I recommend people go see their soils and learn what their plants require and assess the various soil compositions available instead of blankety saying they sell subpar products.

Excellent place for bark and cobblestone delivery. Tonja was very nice to work with.
- M B.
Their website was actually helpful just to see examples of the mulch. Phone salesperson was patient and very helpful. The prices including delivery seemed reasonable.
The delivery was on time and the driver was careful about navigating the utility lines/ driveway. 20 yards and 20 minutes later I was left with two huge piles of beautiful bark mulch.

I previously ordered 6 yards of topsoil from a concord business that does not earn naming here, as that business delivered sand not topsoil. This was for my lawn.
Thank you Contra Costa topsoil for;
- agreeing to sell me 8 yards of topsoil
- then delivering the topsoil as agreed
- the great delivery truck driver who was extra nice and very helpful.
Thanks for helping rescue my previous error in judgement, doing business in Concord!
If I need topsoil ever again I will only call Contra Costa Topsoil as they delivered!!
Highly recommend this company!
- Rick S.
Great experience with Contra Costa Topsoil. I called a couple times to get more information about their soil options and delivery and each time, the person who answered the phone was very pleasant and patient with my questions. We ended up getting 5 cubic yards of their planter mix delivered. They were prompt and managed to dump it all onto the tarp on our driveway. Will definitely use them again.

Need dirt? These are the guys to go to. The have needed several deliveries of dirt and they are always on time and friendly. I would highly recommend them.

Pleasant Hill Dog Owner's Group (a non-profit organization) needed some "dirt" to fill gopher holes at the Paso Nogal Dog Park. I found Contra Costa Topsoil and asked about any CHEAP dirt. They were super helpful and donated a yard of screened dirt for our park. These are people that really care. We appreciate their donation.
- Brian A.
Genuinely good people at Contra Costa Topsoil. VERY great prices too. We purchased 2 yards of dirt for our planter boxes and were not disappointed. The cost is roughly $40 a yard- cheaper than anything at a big box store. These guys also deliver!
- Kyle H.
I had a great experience with these guys. When everything goes right is one thing. I had a miscommunication (both our faults) and received the wrong bark. CCT came out late on the same day to scoop up the 5 yards they left on the driveway and deliver the correct stuff. Fantastic effort on their part to make everything just right for me.
- Richard C.
Just added about 5 yards of "Ruth Bancroft" from Contra Costa Topsoil to our backyard. It is clean and consistent, perfect for low water gardening. Updated and upgraded for an excellent supplier.
- Ed H.
Very good customer service. We had a small problem which was immediately handled by Tanya much better than we could have expected. Also, the people working there were very courteous. VERY HAPPY
- Phil W.
Great service and a great price. Everyone I talked to was really helpful and friendly to work with. I bought topsoil and then went back for black mulch. I made several trips to save on delivery charges and they were great each time I was there. I would use this company over and over again.
- Jessica M.
There is not much to say that has not already been said. This business is by far, the best in the area if not the entire East Bay. They give customer service like the old days, they treat you great, their prices are competetive.
Great job, Great company, Great people.
- John M.
This is the best deal in town and the best quality as well. A friend(who is a landscape contractor) recomended the place and he was right. Very helpful, family run business. Need a truck or trailer(unless you get it delivered) but it is well worth it.
- Matthew K.
Great customer service! My delivery came right on time. Contra Costa Topsoil has very friendly employees who gladly took the time to help me find the most suitable material for my job. They helped me estimate the amount of yardage I needed for my project without over spending my budget. Thanks to CC Topsoil, my yard looks good enough to be on a garden tour!
- Judy K.
Pleasant, helpful person on the telephone, driver was polite and helpful and delivered the soil just where we wanted it. Good prices too. We are going to visit to look at their different mulches soon.
- Sarah J.
I have been doing business with Contra Costa Topsoil for over 20 years. It has grown a bit. The children have been running the business for several years now that the father retired. It is still family run and they are very friendly. Just drive in, find the guy on the tractor and tell him what you need.
- Terry L.
Yeah dude, this place was awesome! Stay right, follow piles of dirt. You will see them on the left. It is a little confusing. You haul away or delivery options. Good soil, and they have lots of variety.
- Mondo Mike G.
Great price. Very nice and helpful.
- Scott D.
Great price no waiting
