From I-5, take the Kent-Des Moines exit, heading east. This will turn into Willis. Turn left on Central. After you pass through James, watch on the right for the baseball field - just around the bend is our office on the right. We have a large wooden dog on our sign, who is usually dressed in a seasonal costume. Recently, we added a carved, wooden cat who is now perched beside him! If you come to Carpinito Brothers, you've just missed us.
You can also take Highway 167 and take the Central Avenue exit and head south on Central. Go past Carpinito Brothers and watch for us on the left.
