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.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Summit, where hillside properties create genuinely different microclimates within a single yard, matching plant choices to each slope's natural exposure makes a significant difference in long-term performance. South and west-facing slopes warm quickly and dry out faster, making them well-suited for drought-tolerant ornamental grasses, lavender, and coneflowers, while north-facing areas favor moisture-loving shrubs and ferns. Planning new plantings around these natural conditions reduces irrigation needs and helps everything establish more reliably after the last frost clears in mid-April.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Mulch depth matters especially in Summit, where hillside beds dry out faster than flat ground due to slope and wind exposure. Apply 3 inches of shredded hardwood mulch to sloped garden areas each spring after the April 15 last frost, ensuring consistent coverage from the top to the bottom of each bed. Maintaining that depth through summer protects shallow root zones during the dry stretches that often hit central New Jersey in July and August.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Decorative stone is a smart long-term investment for Summit properties where erosion-prone slopes need a low-maintenance ground cover solution. River rock or crushed stone installed 2 to 3 inches deep over a permeable weed barrier prevents soil movement during heavy rain while adding visual structure to terraced areas. Unlike organic mulch, stone does not need annual replacement, making it especially practical for hard-to-access hillside sections of a Summit property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

What is the best mulch for hillside garden beds in Summit?

Shredded hardwood mulch is the best choice for Summit's sloped beds because its fibrous texture resists sliding and displacement during heavy rain. Apply it 3 inches deep and consider using a light layer of erosion control netting on steeper grades. Avoid large wood chips on slopes, as they shift easily. Bulk delivery saves significant time when covering multiple terraced beds in one session.

Answer

How do I prevent runoff from damaging my Summit property during heavy rainstorms?

Summit's hilly terrain combined with nearly 49 inches of annual rainfall makes runoff management important. Planting dense ground covers on slopes, installing permeable stone pathways, and maintaining thick mulch layers in all garden beds slows water movement and reduces soil displacement. A dry creek bed filled with bulk stone can also direct water away from foundations and prevent pooling in lower yard areas.

Answer

Can I use compost as a top dressing on my Summit lawn in fall?

Yes. Spreading a quarter to half inch of bulk compost over your Summit lawn in early fall, after aerating the clay loam soil, feeds grass roots heading into winter and improves soil structure for spring. Do this in mid-September so grass has time to absorb nutrients before the October 28 first frost arrives. This practice also helps reduce compaction over multiple seasons.
