Wonderful experience! They put the mulch exactly where we wanted. This mulch spread very easily and didn’t have the usual “mulch smell.” We will definitely use again!

Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!
Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!
While you are prepping the yard for winter, consider pairing your firewood order with mulch or landscape stone to protect garden beds through Louisville's freeze thaw cycles and clay soil conditions.

Stack firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so clay soil moisture and Louisville's humid air do not wick dampness back into your splits. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover only the top of the stack with a tarp, keeping the sides open so trapped moisture can escape instead of promoting mold and slower burning wood.
Oak and hickory take longer to catch but burn hottest and longest, making them ideal for overnight fires during Louisville's colder January stretches. Start fires with smaller, quicker burning splits, then add denser oak or hickory once the fire is established for steady, lasting heat.
Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the Oct 25 average first frost, so it has time to settle into your stack and you are not scrambling once temperatures drop. Early ordering also means better availability before the seasonal rush that hits Louisville suppliers each October.
Louisville winters run from that late October frost around Oct 25 through early April, meaning a heating season that can stretch five to six months in a typical zone 6b year. Our clay soil region grows dense hardwoods like oak, hickory, and hard maple, all excellent for long, steady burns once properly seasoned. Because Ohio Valley humidity stays high much of the year, green wood cut locally needs six months to a year of covered drying before it burns clean and hot. Wood that is not fully seasoned smokes heavily, creates dangerous creosote buildup, and wastes a huge share of its heat value boiling off trapped moisture instead of warming your home. We season our splits through that full cycle so Louisville households get consistent, efficient heat from the first cold snap through the last spring chill.
Expect dense regional hardwoods like oak, hickory, maple, and ash. These species burn longer and hotter than softwoods, which is what you want when a cold snap settles in and the stove runs all day.
Firewood needs 6 to 12 months of drying before it burns well. Properly seasoned wood lights faster, throws more heat, and keeps creosote out of your chimney, which matters most in the coldest weeks of the year.
Firewood that travels long distances spreads invasive pests like the emerald ash borer. Our wood is cut and seasoned close to where it is delivered, which protects local trees and means fresher wood for you.
