Mixed Load Deliveries
Smarter Deliveries, Smoother Jobs
In landscaping, timing and coordination are everything. One late pallet can throw off your crew and cost you money. That’s why Christensen’s Plant and Hardscape Centers stocks plants, hardscape, drainage, and lighting—and can deliver them together!
Mixed loads save headaches:
- One ETA, one invoice, one vendor
- Less downtime waiting on material
- Allows more time for plant placement, leading to “upsell” opportunities.
Our shipping team makes sure plants stay protected, hardscape stays tight, and moisture-sensitive products are packed where they’ll stay dry.
Pictured here is the flatbed trailer. Once the material is safely loaded, the Shipping Department carefully tarps before leaving the yard.
Christensen's Shipping Department has several types of trailers, perfect for mixed loads.

Tips to help deliveries, and your jobsites, run smoothly
- Store plants in a water-accessible area, with shade if possible.
- Store adhesives and polymeric sand in a dry area, such as inside a truck or trailer.
- Stage materials in the order your crew will install them, moving items as few times as possible.
Your partner in sourcing premium materials
When a contractor designs projects mindful of the materials stocked at Christensen’s, it prevents delays and simplifies reorders. This, in turn, improves consistency and keeps projects moving. It also adds the potential of a single delivery.
At the end of the day, single-source purchasing isn’t just convenient, it’s strategic. Let Christensen’s Plant and Hardscape Centers manage the logistics, so your crew can focus on creating landscapes that impress.
