Fully Staffed Contractor Offices
Our contractor sales desk at Curtis Lumber is one of the
busiest areas in our company. The reason: contractors and
builders have long been among our most devoted customers.
Throughout the years Curtis developed a thorough
understating of the needs of contractors and other
professionals. Our contractor sales staff, for example, is
prepared to expedite your orders and to arrange deliveries
where and when you need them. You’re invited to call or
visit any Curtis Lumber store with your special needs or

Delivery… Fast and Accurate!
We have many years of experience with our
contractors/builders in selecting and handling materials
you need to get your job done right. We take the time to
pick your order and utilize our delivery vehicles so you
don’t have to take time away from your busy day. No one
likes to wait long for something he or she has ordered.
That’s why Curtis has raised delivery service to a fine
art. We are proud of our delivery fleet of over 100 trucks
including: 74 flatbeds/vans, 10 tractor trailers and specialized
truss trailers, 11 boom trucks, 3 ladder trucks and 16 truck mountable
forklifts.
Curtis Lumber is the only building material retailer in
the nation to be recognized for our achievements with
safety programs. Our drivers undergo rigorous training on
the safe and proper operations of their vehicles. They are
trained to identify delivery site conditions that may pose
a potential safety risk to themselves, their delivery
vehicle, your customer and customer’s property. Our
drivers will opt not to use the driveway or lawn if they
know damage will result. Please visit our delivery
services page for complete information about our delivery
service.
