One cubic yard of this compost covers about 324 square feet at a one inch depth, which is right for top dressing an established lawn. For garden beds, plan on two to three inches worked into the soil, so figure closer to 110 to 160 square feet per cubic yard at that depth. Measure your bed or lawn area first, then decide which depth matches the job before ordering.

I recently ordered from mulch mound and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The entire process, from placing the order to delivery was seamless and efficient. The mulch arrived exactly on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. The color was rich and consistent, and I received more than enough to complete my project with proper coverage and packing.
Customer service was equally outstanding. Communication was clear, and the team was responsive and professional throughout. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both a high-quality product and excellent service, but mulch mound did just that.
Highly recommended, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.

I couldn't be happier with the speed and quality of the mulch delivery service of Mulch Mound. Every detail from ordering, to communication with on time delivery, to perfect product placement was amazing. I needed more and I got it within 2 hours! I'm never doing this with bags again.
Compost does its best work paired with a mulch layer on top to hold moisture in that sandy Jacksonville ground. Topsoil is worth adding if you are building a new bed from scratch and need volume as well as nutrition. Many customers order both compost and mulch together so beds get amended and finished in the same delivery.
Service area
In sandy Jacksonville soil, compost breaks down and drains through faster than it would in clay, so tilling two to three inches into beds rather than just scratching it into the surface makes a real difference. Surface application on sand lets nutrients wash past the root zone with the next rain. Working it in gives roots time to actually use what you added before it moves on.
A common mistake is piling compost on thick thinking more equals better results. Past three inches in beds, compost can actually tie up nitrogen temporarily as soil microbes work through the extra organic matter, which shows up as slow, pale growth. Stick to the one to three inch range and reapply next season instead of dumping it all at once.
Compost and mulch pair well because compost feeds the soil while mulch on top slows evaporation, which matters in sandy ground that dries out fast between rains. Ordering both in the same delivery saves a second trip and lets you finish a bed in one weekend instead of two separate projects spread across different weeks.
Sandy soil around Jacksonville lets water and fertilizer pass right through the root zone before plants get much use out of either. Compost worked two to three inches into beds adds organic matter that helps that sand hold moisture and nutrients longer. With zone 8a summers pushing plants hard and a growing season that runs from late March to mid November, beds and lawns here benefit from compost applied at the start of spring growth or again in fall before dormancy. It is not a fix in one pass, but repeated applications build real structure into ground that starts out thin and loose.
Finished compost is organic matter that has fully broken down into a dark, crumbly material with an earthy smell. It feeds soil life, improves structure, and helps beds hold water without staying soggy.
Work 1 to 2 inches into new beds, or topdress lawns with a quarter to half inch and rake it in. More is not better. Too thick a layer can smother roots instead of feeding them.
Spring and fall are both good windows. Spring applications feed the growing season ahead, and fall applications break down over winter so beds are ready at first thaw.
