LANDSCAPE SOLUTIONS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

With over 15 years of experience under their belt, C&M Topsoil has emerged as one of the largest suppliers of high-quality landscape materials in Sylmar, CA expanding into the greater Los Angeles area. The company has built a solid reputation by offering an impressive array of products such as various colored mulch, bark, compost, aggregates, and gravel. Equipment supplied by Powerscreen of California, Nevada, & Hawaii has played a critical role in expanding C&M’s top-tier product offerings.

The Power of Advanced Machinery

C&M Topsoil is a dedicated composting and chipping facility, where an influx of recycled materials from various municipalities surrounding Los Angeles comes to be processed. In a city where environmental sustainability is increasingly important, C&M Topsoil ensures that the waste collected from these municipalities is broken down and returned to the surrounding communities in Southern California after being transformed into high-quality landscape materials. Their recycling process not only reduces landfill waste but also provides organic, pesticide-free, and chemical-free products that landscapers, gardeners, nurseries, and homeowners alike can rely on.

To keep up with the vast amounts of material they process daily, C&M Topsoil has invested heavily in state-of-the-art machinery from Powerscreen of CA, NV, & HI. In their upper yard, the company relies on a CBI 5800BT horizontal grinder and a Terex Ecotec TTS 620T trommel screen. These machines are essential for chipping and grinding incoming organic materials into mulch and compost. The CBI 5800BT is known for its powerful grinding capabilities, efficiently handling large volumes of green waste, while the TTS 620T trommel screen is perfect for screening and separating the finer organic materials into finished products ready for use.

The 5800BT horizontal grinder features a rotor width of 48”, a diameter of 40”, and a shaft of 6”, which is key to ensuring the efficient processing of their wood waste. The TTS620T boasts a 6’7” x 18’1” drum, ideal for screening through the compost and mulch.

In their lower yard, C&M Topsoil operates an Evoquip Cobra 230 and a Powerscreen Chieftain 1700X. These machines focus on breaking down aggregates and gravel, providing landscapers and construction companies with essential base materials for various projects. The Evoquip Cobra 230 is known for its portability and compact design, making it a perfect fit for smaller spaces without compromising on performance. The Powerscreen Chieftain 1700X, on the other hand, offers high-capacity screening and is designed for efficient separation of materials, giving C&M Topsoil the ability to produce a wide range of aggregate sizes.

Versatility in Operations

C&M Topsoil’s fleet of machines, purchased from Powerscreen of California, Nevada, & Hawaii, was chosen not just for their power but for their flexibility. The ability to switch between applications, from grinding green waste to breaking down gravel, this makes their operation highly versatile.

“IT’S INCREDIBLE TO BE PART OF SOMETHING THAT NOT ONLY BENEFITS OUR CUSTOMERS BUT ALSO HELPS MAKE OUR COMMUNITY AND ENVIRONMENT BETTER.”

Joe Cervantes elaborates on this, stating, “We can use the machines we’ve purchased from Powerscreen of California, Nevada, & Hawaii for multiple applications. Whether it’s grinding, chipping, or breaking down gravel, there are just so many possibilities. It has been nothing but a blessing to our business.”

One of the main reasons C&M Topsoil invested in these machines was their easy setup and use. The machines can be moved across the yard with minimal effort, allowing the team to adapt quickly to changing demands. This flexibility has proven crucial for keeping up with the needs of the greater Los Angeles area, where demand for high-quality landscaping materials remains consistently strong.

Superior Service from Powerscreen of CA, NV, & HI

The partnership between C&M Topsoil and the Powerscreen team extends beyond just the machinery. Joe Cervantes has been particularly impressed with the level of service and support C&M has received over the years. Whether it’s sourcing parts or troubleshooting equipment, Powerscreen’s team has been there to provide solutions swiftly. “Powerscreen of CA, NV, & HI is always on top of their game,” Cervantes explains. “Whenever we need a part or have a question regarding the machines, they immediately pick up the phone and give us the information we need.”

This level of responsiveness has helped C&M Topsoil maintain its operations without significant downtime, ensuring that they can meet the demands of their customers consistently. Tom O’Malley, their salesman from Powerscreen of CA, NV, & HI, has been a key figure in helping C&M Topsoil acquire the right machines for their specific needs and keeping them running smoothly for over a decade.

Customer-Centric Approach

C&M Topsoil’s dedication to its customers sets them apart from their competitors. The company sells its products to a wide range of clients, from professional landscapers and nurseries to homeowners looking to spruce up their gardens. The products are available in bulk, baskets, super sacks, or smaller 75lbs / 2 cubic ft bags, ensuring they can meet the varying needs of their clients.

As the company continues to grow, they are constantly updating their list of products to stay ahead of customer demand. If a specific material isn’t listed, the team at C&M Topsoil works closely with the Powerscreen of CA, NV, & HI team to customize a solution that will allow their machines to produce new materials. This personalized service has earned them a loyal customer base throughout Southern California.

C&M Topsoil’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond just processing recycled materials. They are continuously looking for ways to improve their processes, reduce waste, and offer environmentally friendly products to the market. With over 15 years of experience and a top-tier fleet of machinery from Powerscreen of California, Nevada, & Hawaii, C&M Topsoil is poised to continue leading the way in landscape material production in SoCal.
