Answer

How do I prepare the area before adding soil?

Weed first, then loosen the existing soil several inches down. This helps new soil integrate—important with Detroit's urban clay compaction.

Answer

How do I fix sandy soil?

Add organic matter—compost, aged manure, garden mix. Sandy soil drains fast and doesn't hold nutrients. Yearly additions build retention.

Answer

Can I leave special instructions?

Absolutely. Add gate codes, detailed placement requests, or access notes at checkout. We check all notes.

Answer

How do I fill a raised bed?

In tall frames, put coarse material low, raised bed mix high. Leave a couple inches at top for mulch. 12-inch depth suits vegetables.

Answer

What's the difference between compost and topsoil?

Topsoil is your structural base material. Compost is decomposed organics for fertility. Detroit gardens benefit from both.

Answer

Where will you drop the soil?

Your choice of location. Checkout lets you specify where and add notes. We place it where you indicate.

Answer

Do I need landscape fabric under soil?

Under raised beds, cardboard beats fabric. It kills grass and decomposes. Fabric impedes roots and drainage in planting areas.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Add organic matter to new topsoil beds annually for continuous improvement. Even good quality topsoil benefits from compost, leaf mold, or aged manure worked into the surface each fall or spring.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

A cubic yard of topsoil weighs roughly 2,000 to 2,400 pounds depending on moisture content at delivery time. Wet soil can weigh 30 percent more than dry soil of the same volume.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Tamp soil lightly after spreading in areas that will receive foot traffic or heavy use. Use a hand tamper or lawn roller filled halfway with water, but avoid over-compacting which prevents healthy root growth.

Detroit landscapes benefit from soil that holds moisture better and finishes to a smooth grade. Seasonal swings can compact areas and expose roots, especially along edges and slopes. Great for gardens, borders, and any spot where you want a smoother grade and better planting layer. Mix lightly into the top few inches where you can, then level and water to set it. With delivery, you can focus on grading and planting instead of hauling bags.
