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!

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.
While you're prepping for winter, check out our mulch and soil options for fall bed cleanup, since Rocky Point's sandy loam benefits from a fresh layer before the ground freezes.

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or rails and cover just the top, leaving the sides open for airflow. Rocky Point's coastal humidity means fully wrapped tarps trap moisture underneath and can slow seasoning or even cause mold. A simple lean to roof or metal cover works better than a tarp cinched tight around the whole pile.
Oak and hickory both burn long and hot but take longer to catch, so start your fire with faster burning maple or a few softwood kindling pieces before adding the denser splits. This layering approach gets your stove up to temperature faster on cold Long Island nights without wasting your densest wood on getting the fire going.
Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the November 17 average first frost, since local supply tightens once temperatures drop and everyone remembers winter at once. Ordering early also gives any slightly under seasoned splits extra weeks of dry, warm air to finish drying before you need them.
Rocky Point sits in growing zone 7b on Long Island, where the heating season stretches from the first frost around November 17 to the last frost near April 15, a stretch of roughly five months when a wood stove or fireplace insert gets real use. The area's sandy loam soils and coastal humidity mean green wood cut nearby takes longer to dry out than people expect, so burning unseasoned splits often leads to smoky, low heat fires and heavy creosote buildup in chimneys. Local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and red maple are common in the woodlots and yards around Rocky Point and Suffolk County, and each needs six months to a year of proper seasoning before it burns clean. Because of Long Island's marine humidity, firewood stored uncovered here reabsorbs moisture faster than it would inland, which is why seasoning and dry storage both matter. Buying wood that's already properly seasoned before your first cold snap keeps your stove efficient through the long Rocky Point winter.
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.
