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

Physical barriers often control Kettering garden pests more effectively and persistently than spray applications that require constant reapplication. Row covers exclude insects from vegetables entirely, tree wraps prevent borer entry into trunks, and copper tape deters slugs and snails. These mechanical solutions work continuously without chemicals.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Refreshing mulch in Kettering beds correctly means resisting the urge to simply pile new material on top of old. Each spring, rake back existing mulch, check for matted or hydrophobic layers beneath, and break them up before adding fresh material to reach a finished depth of 3 inches. In Kettering's silt loam, properly applied mulch can reduce water loss by up to 70% during summer dry spells,a measurable difference in plant stress and how much supplemental irrigation your landscape actually requires.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

If Kettering lawn areas have declined from shade, compaction, or drought stress, fall renovation delivers the best results in Zone 7a. Core aerate in late August or early September, topdress with a thin layer of compost, and overseed with a shade-tolerant tall fescue blend. New grass germinates in warm soil and establishes before the October 20 first frost. Spring renovation is also viable, though competing with summer heat makes fall the clearly preferred timing for lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

I'm planting new shrubs in my Kettering yard this spring. Should I amend the backfill soil?

Current best practice for Kettering plantings is to amend the entire planting bed rather than individual holes. Backfilling a single hole with enriched soil creates a 'pot effect' that discourages roots from spreading into surrounding silt loam. Prepare the full bed by incorporating 3 inches of compost into the top 10 to 12 inches, creating a uniformly improved growing environment that encourages broad root development.

Answer

Water pools near my Kettering home's foundation after heavy rain. What landscape fix will help most?

Grading is the first priority,soil should slope away from your foundation at least 1 inch per foot for the first 6 feet. Once corrected, installing a river rock channel or French drain along the foundation redirects water effectively. In Kettering's silt loam, these features work best installed before spring rains begin. Ensure downspout extensions also direct water well away from the structure.

Answer

Do native plants in my Kettering yard still need mulch, or do they take care of themselves?

Even native plants benefit from mulch during establishment in Kettering. Though adapted to Zone 7a conditions and local rainfall patterns, their first one to two years require support while root systems develop. Apply 2 to 3 inches of shredded leaf or wood mulch around new native plantings. Once established,typically after two full growing seasons,many natives can rely on naturally accumulating leaf litter as an organic mulch substitute in more naturalized areas.
