Saint Paul, MN

We provide bin blocks in Saint Paul, MN. We offer these blocks in two different sizes for this city: a 6’ x 2’ x 2’ block that weighs 3,600lbs and a 3’ x 2’ x 2’ block that weighs 1,800lbs. When it comes to the transportation of these blocks, each trailer can carry either thirteen of the 6’ blocks or twenty-six of the 3’ blocks. Why are these blocks so special? Well, these blocks each have four of what are known as v-wedges. These v-wedges allow each block to be smoothly slid together with another block. You can find a protruding v-wedge on both the top and side of the block, while the bottom and other side have an inverted v-wedge. These two differently shaped wedges fit together smoothly and enable you to slide each of the blocks together. The blocks also have a rebar handle loop on each of their tops. This loop enables you to move the blocks around without having to use complicated rigging equipment. If you have any questions or would like more information about these blocks, please feel free to give us a call! We would love to speak with you! 612-234-6200

We provide barrier blocks in Saint Paul, MN. These blocks can be used in all sorts of different projects, both large and small scale.

After you purchase your blocks, how exactly do you receive them? We offer two different options of block receival: delivery or pick up. Please note that both of these methods have a few different requirements that must be met in order for the processes to go safely and smoothly. We will go over each of these requirements with you below, starting with those of the delivery process. Here are the delivery requirements: First off, you will need to make sure you have the proper type and size of block offloading equipment that is readily available to offload the blocks once they arrive. In order to do this safely and smoothly, this equipment needs to be able to do two different things. One, it must be able to carry the weight of your blocks (1,800-3,600lbs). Second, because, in height, the blocks are 2’ and the trailer is 5’, it must be able to reach a height of 7 ‘+. The next requirement is having enough space so that the delivery semi can safely enter and exit the drop off site. An open space of 47’-53’ must be open and available for this purpose. If you do not have access to this much space, we can discuss dropping the blocks off at another nearby location and then moving the blocks to the actual, desired location by using smaller equipment. Now we will move on to the pick up requirements. First off, you will need to give us a call so that we can arrange a date and time for you to come to our plant and pick up your blocks. During this call, someone from our wonderful team will be more than happy to help you set up this time. When you do come to pick them up, we will load the blocks onto the trailer for you, so no need to worry about that part of things. However, we do ask that you bring along a set of chains and/or straps that can be used to secure the blocks down to the trailer. If you have any questions or concerns regarding either of these processes or their requirements, please feel free to give us a call and we would be more than happy to chat with you. We provide barrier blocks in Saint Paul, MN. However, there is a chance that you know these blocks by another nickname or two. There are actually a lot of concrete block nicknames out there, so we put together a list of some of the more common nicknames: bin blocks, barrier blocks, mafia blocks, jumbo blocks, waste blocks, ecology blocks, lego blocks, soldier blocks, interlocking v-blocks, storage wall blocks, stackable concrete blocks, leftover concrete blocks, gravity wall blocks, and large concrete retaining wall blocks. If you know of or are used to using any other concrete block nicknames, please feel free to let us know and we can add those names to our list as well! Thank you!
