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.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

With 55 inches of annual rain and rolling terrain, Southside properties benefit from a dry creek bed instead of a buried drain pipe. Excavate a shallow swale along the natural runoff path, line it with landscape fabric, then fill with washed river rock in mixed sizes, larger stones at the edges. It handles storm volume, never clogs like perforated pipe, and looks like a design feature rather than a repair.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Southside soil tests almost always come back acidic, somewhere between 5.0 and 5.5, because red clay plus 55 inches of rain leaches calcium out year after year. Pull a sample in October and spread pelletized lime at the recommended rate before winter rain works it down. Lime moves slowly, roughly an inch per season, so a fall application is finally doing its job by the time you plant in April.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Timing matters more than product for Southside lawn feeding. Zone 8a warm season turf like bermuda and zoysia stays dormant until soil hits 65 degrees, usually mid April here, so nitrogen applied in March just feeds winter weeds. Wait until the lawn is fully green and mowed twice, then feed. Stop all nitrogen by mid September so the grass hardens off before the November 5 frost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answer

How much bulk mulch do I need for my Southside beds?

One cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at three inches deep, which is the right depth for our rainfall. Measure each bed length times width, add the totals, and divide by 100. Most Southside front yards run three to five yards. We deliver in single yard increments so you are not stuck guessing high.

Answer

Can you deliver to a Southside lot with a steep or narrow driveway?

Usually yes. Our trucks dump from the back, so we need about 12 feet of width and reasonable overhead clearance. On steeper Southside driveways we often stage the pile at the top near the street and let you wheelbarrow down, which is easier than backing a loaded truck onto a grade. Just flag your preferred drop spot.

Answer

When is the best time of year to plant shrubs in Southside?

October through early December is ideal. Soil is still warm enough for root growth but the top has cooled, so plants establish without heat stress before the November 5 frost. February and March also work. Avoid June through August plantings unless you can hand water twice weekly, since our red clay bakes hard and sheds surface water.

Southside sits just below Gadsden along the Coosa, blending rural acreage with newer residential development. Larger lots here mean larger orders, from pasture area topsoil to multi yard mulch drops for long driveway plantings. The rolling terrain south of the river creates drainage challenges that material selection can solve. Our delivery route follows Highway 77 through the heart of town.
