Mulch Mound delivered a yard of pea gravel to us. Delivery was on time, driver was friendly and hit a bullseye on the “tarp target”. We used the pea gravel (which was diameter as specified) to fill several muskrat holes around our pond. I would definitely recommend Mulch Mound to a friend!

UPDATE!
I can’t say enough good things about Mulch Mound! If you read my review below you will see I had a problem with my order. Mulch Mound was quick to respond and solved the issue with my delivery. Will definitely be a customer next year.
First time purchase from Mulch Mound!! First what I liked! Easy to order online and straight forward pricing and delivery. The driver was on time and courteous and delivered my Mulch exactly where I requested! The product is of good quality and comparable to others I have purchased from before. Now what I DID’NT LIKE! I have been mulching the same house and yard for almost 20 years. I always order the same amount and don’t have any issues with covering the same area but this year I fell about a yard short. I was home when the mulch was delivered and when the driver dumped it I noticed that it seemed a bit less than I was used to. I didn’t apply it any thicker than usual and probably a bit thinner than usual because I was worried about running out.
For Beavercreek's type of soil, we recommend 2-3 inches for best weed suppression and moisture retention
Try Our CalculatorSketch each bed on paper and break odd shapes into rectangles and circles rather than guessing at the whole yard. Multiply length by width in feet, add the beds together, then enter that total square footage and your target depth. Beavercreek homeowners consistently underestimate curved island beds, so round up a few square feet on anything with a wavy edge.
Most yards in the Beavercreek area sit on type of soil. Beavercreek silt loam holds water beautifully in spring, sometimes too well, and then crusts into a hard surface crust when late summer turns dry. That swing between soggy and sealed is what stresses shallow rooted shrubs in local foundation beds.
Hardwood Mulch
Shredded hardwood mulch is the practical fix. As it breaks down it adds organic matter that keeps silt loam crumbly instead of crusted, feeds the earthworms that punch drainage channels through the profile, and moderates the wet to dry swing so roots stay in a steady moisture range all season.
Pair your mulch with a yard of compost worked into the top few inches of silt loam before spreading, and add steel or spade cut edging to keep mulch from washing into the lawn during May storms.
Do not pile mulch against tree trunks. Beavercreek yards are full of maples and river birch planted when these subdivisions went in, and volcano mulching around them traps moisture in our humid summers and rots the bark. Pull mulch back so you can see the root flare where the trunk widens at the ground. A flat donut three inches deep out to the drip line is what the tree actually wants.
Before you spread, deal with weeds. Beavercreek silt loam grows a vigorous crop of creeping charlie and bindweed, and mulch alone will not stop either one. Pull or spot treat two weeks ahead of your delivery, then lay mulch on clean soil. Skip plastic sheeting entirely, since it blocks the air exchange our tight subsoil already struggles with and creates a slick layer that mulch slides right off.
Water your beds thoroughly the day before mulching, especially in a dry August. Dry silt loam repels water once it crusts, and a fresh three inch mulch layer will shed a light rain right off the top before it ever reaches the roots. Wetting first means you are locking moisture in rather than sealing drought out. After spreading, run a slow soak for thirty minutes to settle the mulch and knit it together against wind.
Beavercreek sits on silt loam that holds moisture well but crusts over and sheds water during the heavy spring storms that push our annual rainfall to about 41 inches. A layer of mulch absorbs that impact, keeps the surface open, and stops the fine silt particles from sealing shut around plant crowns. In Zone 6b, where the ground can freeze after the October 15 first frost and thaw again during a January warm spell, mulch also buffers the freeze and thaw cycles that heave shallow roots out of beds along Dayton Xenia Road and the newer subdivisions off Grange Hall. Summers here run humid with periods of little rain in late July and August, and two to three inches of mulch can cut irrigation needs dramatically. Mulch is the single cheapest thing a Beavercreek homeowner can add to a bed and still see results in one season.
