Ordering & Delivery

How do I place an order?

Choose your material and submit an order request through our website. Tell us what you need, how much you need, and where you’d like it delivered.

A member of the Sommers team will call to confirm your order and delivery details before anything is finalized.

There’s no online checkout or payment step. The new ordering process is intentionally built around personal confirmation from the Sommers team.

Products & Pickup

Can I pick up materials instead of having them delivered?

Yes. Many Sommers products are available for pickup at the Cottage Grove yard.

Because availability and seasonal hours can change, it’s a good idea to call ahead before making the trip. Sommers currently asks pickup customers to call ahead.
