I used Mulch Mound to have 3 cubic yards of garden soil delivered. The process was easy and I love that I didn't have to call anyone. I placed my order online, picked my delivery date, laid out my tarp and the dirt was delivered. My delivery had to be pushed back, but I was kept informed via text, which was great. So why not 5 stars? The description of garden soil on the website is "A balanced mix of topsoil and organic amendments ready for raised beds, flower gardens, and new planting areas. Good drainage, solid nutrients, easy to work with." What I got was more like fill dirt. It had a lot of gravel, a lot of clay, and random trash mixed in. I didn't test the soil to see if it actually had "amendments" because I already have compost and alpaca manure ready to add, but if I'd known the quality of the dirt was going to be the same as the bagged dirt I bought last year, I probably would have gotten 2 yards of top soil and a yard of leaf compost for better quality, especially since the leaf compost is cheaper. Photo of my mountain of dirt and just some of the trash I found in it.

I had a great experience ordering from Mulch Mound- they offered a quick turnaround and they delivered a generous/heaping 4 cubic yards. Driver was kind and professional, couldn’t have asked for an easier or better experience.

My experience with Mulch Mound was great and super easy. I ordered two yards of screened topsoil and was able to get it delivered within 2 days. They came in my requested time frame (afternoon) and dropped it off where I asked on my driveway. The topsoil was exactly what was advertised, clean with no rocks or other debris. The price was reasonable. I plan to use them again in a couple weeks to order compost for my garden beds.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Piling any material against tree trunks creates conditions for bark decay and pest problems in Deerfield landscapes regardless of good intentions. Whether organic amendments or decorative products, anything holding moisture against bark encourages rot and provides cover for trunk-damaging pests and rodents. Always maintain clearance around the trunk flare.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Consistent weed management in Deerfield beds starts with preventing weed seeds from reaching the soil surface. A 3-inch layer of fine-shredded hardwood mulch blocks the light that annual weed seeds require to germinate. In Deerfield's silt loam, prolific self-seeders like crabgrass and purslane thrive in open soil, refresh mulch depth in early May, just after the last frost, to stay ahead of the first heavy germination flush of the growing season.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Deerfield's May 15 last frost date is a firm planning anchor for warm-season planting. Resist the urge to install tender annuals during warm April spells, late frosts are common and can wipe out new plantings overnight. Instead, use April to prep beds: edge cleanly, incorporate compost, and lay mulch so everything is ready for efficient planting the week of May 15, when the risk window truly closes in Deerfield.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answer

How much mulch should I budget for a full Deerfield landscape renovation?

For a complete mulch refresh on a typical Deerfield property with around 1,200 square feet of beds, plan on 10 to 12 cubic yards at a 3-inch depth. If beds haven't been refreshed in more than two seasons, lightly cultivate the old layer before adding new material. Buying in bulk rather than bags saves significantly on cost per cubic yard for projects of this size.

Answer

What is the best approach to edging and mulching tree rings in my Deerfield yard?

For Deerfield tree rings, cut a clean circle 3 to 4 feet in diameter using a half-moon edger, removing grass from the ring entirely. Apply 2 to 3 inches of shredded hardwood starting 6 inches away from the trunk flare, never against the bark, extending to the outer edge. This reduces mower contact, retains moisture, and protects roots from Deerfield's temperature extremes through the full Zone 5b calendar.

Answer

Can I use bulk topsoil to raise the grade around my Deerfield foundation plantings?

Use caution when raising grade near foundations in Deerfield. Any added topsoil must slope away from the house, at least 6 inches of drop over the first 10 feet, to direct water away from the foundation. Never bury the root flares of existing foundation shrubs in the process. In many Deerfield situations, improving drainage through grading alone is preferable to adding significant soil volume near the structure.
