Planning notes

A good property is close enough to demand, easy enough for trucks to reach, and controlled enough to keep material organized. That usually means a stable entrance, room to turn, clear staging zones, drainage that can be managed, and a landowner who knows exactly which parts of the property can be used.

Covered buildings can help protect material from new rain, but open land can still be useful when it has a stable pad, proper setbacks, and a plan to avoid mixing clean fill with trash, demolition debris, brush, or unknown material.

This is why every property review should capture photos, maps, access notes, owner permission, and any local review concerns before the site is treated as dispatch-ready.

What to include before dispatch

  • Property address, owner contact, and whether lease terms can be discussed.
  • Available acreage, covered square footage, door height, floor or pad condition, and photos.
  • Truck access, gate width, turn-around space, drainage paths, and nearby road limits.
  • Any zoning, stormwater, environmental, neighbor, or prior-use concerns that need review.
