More than 20 years ago Todd Plaisted founded his company’s reputation on the sand and gravel products provided by his Elk River mining reserve; supplying area golf courses and athletic fields with the finest quality construction sands and maintenance products in the region. His 60 employees are known for their legendary customer service, offering a professional, friendly and honest experience. This attitude has lead to more than 200 unique and innovative products. His staff is continually seeking creative solutions to customer requests; and with their own fleet of tandems, tri-axels, Super 7’s, trucks and pups and semi end dumps they have set the standard in the 5-state area market for responsive delivery.

Diversification is the key word to enhancing services for customers and keeping up with the ever-changing needs of the customer. With the creation of the computerized Accublender™ in 1995, customer’s requests for quality, consistent engineered soils were answered. The recent addition of Rain Garden Drainage Filtration Soils, Rooftop Lightweight Garden Mixes, CUStructural ® soil and Minnesota DOT soil mixes has further defined the Plaisted reputation as the leading soil blender in the region.
