This review compares my experience with Mulch Mound compared to another local company that has delivered soil to me. The soil purchased from Mulch Mound was for two more of my large raised beds for flowers and vegetables-- I have 8 total beds. 1st- the ordering process was very easier with Mulch Mound and I was impressed with the follow-ups regarding my order and delivery. The soil calculator was easy to use but would not let me order 1.5 yards so I have too much left over soil. The wait time for delivery was very short and the actual delivery was excellent. The soil was deposited in the exact location requested. The biggest difference between the two companies was the quality of the soil. The Mulch Mound was not adequately ground up or pulverized. There a significant number of larger and smaller dirt clumbs that seemed to be clay and very difficult to break up. In fact, I have a 12 inch bolder of dirt that is solid. I never have had big dirt clods or a boulder with the other company. So, I am not sure if the Mulch Mound dirt is just landfill dirt or actual garden soil with compost like the other company, The other reviews were very positive about their soil quality so I may have just received a lower quality batch. I just hope this will be good for growing.

Excellent service! The mulch we ordered was high quality and exactly what I was looking for. The driver was very respectful and responsive. He confirmed the placement of the mulch and dumped it where I asked. I will definitely order from Mulch Mound again!

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Leaving adequate growing room when installing Elkhart landscapes prevents the crowding that inevitably develops as plants mature to their genetic potential. New plantings always look sparse initially but fill in faster than most gardeners expect. Patience during establishment beats completely replanting overstuffed beds in just a few years.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Elkhart's sandy loam soils are naturally low in organic matter, which limits both water retention and nutrient availability for landscape plants. Incorporating 2 to 3 inches of bulk compost worked into the top 6 to 8 inches of soil before planting dramatically improves moisture-holding capacity. Topdressing established beds each spring with a half-inch of compost keeps soil biology active and reduces the fertilizer inputs needed to sustain healthy Elkhart landscapes.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Fall is one of the best planting windows Elkhart offers. Cooler temperatures between mid-August and the October 10 first frost allow roots to establish without summer heat stress, and natural rainfall cuts irrigation demands substantially. Mulch new plantings immediately with 3 inches of shredded bark to protect roots from early frost and maintain soil warmth well into November, giving Elkhart landscapes a strong foundation before spring arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

How deep should mulch be in Elkhart to protect plants through a Zone 5b winter?

Apply 3 to 4 inches of shredded hardwood or bark mulch over perennial beds before Elkhart's October 10 first frost. This depth insulates roots from hard freezes and buffers the freeze-thaw cycles that heave shallow-rooted plants out of the ground. Pull mulch back a few inches from plant crowns to prevent moisture accumulation and crown rot during the warm spells that interrupt Elkhart winters.

Answer

Can I use bulk sand to fix waterlogged areas of my Elkhart yard?

Sand alone rarely solves drainage problems and can actually worsen compaction when mixed with loam. A more effective approach is installing a French drain or dry creek bed filled with washed gravel, paired with bulk compost to improve soil structure in planting areas. If amending beds specifically, use coarse horticultural grit rather than fine sand, and always combine it with generous organic matter for lasting results.

Answer

What type of gravel works best for a driveway in Elkhart?

Crushed limestone or recycled concrete aggregate in the 3/4-inch size is a practical and popular choice for Elkhart driveways. It compacts firmly, drains effectively, and handles Indiana freeze-thaw winters without shifting as severely as pea gravel. Plan for a 4 to 6 inch compacted base plus a 2-inch top dressing. Bulk delivery is most economical for driveways, which typically require 10 to 20 yards depending on length and width.
