"errible service from Hoerr Landscaping. I ordered 15 tonnes of white rock from Hoerr Landscaping in Peoria. I had done the same in 2017, when the dump truck driver evenly dumped the gravel along the entire driveway. I expected the same, or at least similar. If not even spread, then at least along the entire driveway. Unfortunately, Hoerr company sent a driver with limited skills who dumped the entire load in middle of the driveway. On calling Hoerr, they told me that their service is to deliver, not spread it. So it is not their problem. The driver did not even ask us where to dump. By the time I asked my wife to reach out and stop his dumping, he had finished it and left. Now my driveway is blocked with mountains of gravel. I am searching for landscaper with skid steer rake. One estimate I got from a landscaper is $750.00"
