Corliss Resources Inc- Home

In 1912, the Corliss Family began hauling its rock product- one ton at a time- with a wooden wagon and a team of horses, serving the farmlands around the City of Sumner, Washington. In 1919, with the arrival of its first motorized dump truck- which doubled the payload of the horse drawn wagon, the Corliss Family’s market expanded throughout the Puyallup Valley while promoting the company’s quality rock products that now, as never before were screened into a variety of different sizes, and washed for better drainage characteristics. Expanding in 1945 to the Ready Mix Concrete business, included the addition of two 6-wheel driver trucks, each hauling 2 ½ yards of concrete.

Since that time, this small “mom and pop” operation has grown into a major supplier of aggregate and concrete products throughout Pierce and King Counties of Washington State. The motorized dump truck of 1919 has long since given way to our fleet of trucks, hauling 10 times the material with 5 times the speed of delivery.

This website was developed by the family-owned Corliss Resources Inc., in honor of the magnificent employees and customers, which through their dedicated loyalty and support, this company has grown into a successful and community centered enterprise.
