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.
While you are prepping for winter, consider pairing your firewood order with mulch for fall bed insulation or stone for a stable, dry storage base, both available on our South Farmingdale regional page.
Service area
Stack firewood off the ground on pallets or rails to keep sandy loam moisture from wicking up into your rows, and leave gaps between rows for airflow. A simple lean to cover or tarp over just the top of the stack, not the sides, lets humidity escape while blocking rain and snow. Facing your stack toward prevailing wind helps it dry faster if any pieces are less seasoned than expected.
Oak takes longer to catch but holds heat through the night, so use it for your last load before bed. Ash lights quickly and works well for building your base fire, while maple is a solid middle choice for daytime burning. A cheap moisture meter reading under 20 percent confirms wood is truly ready, since color and sound alone can be misleading.
Order firewood in late summer or early fall before the November 15 frost line hits, since early ordering guarantees better selection and avoids the rush that hits every South Farmingdale supplier once temperatures drop. Wood ordered early also gets a few extra weeks to finish drying in your own stack before you need it, which matters if any pieces arrive slightly under seasoned.
South Farmingdale winters run from the mid November frost line into mid April, which means a long stretch of nights where a wood stove or fireplace earns its keep on Long Island. Locally cut oak, ash, and maple need six months to a year of proper drying before they burn clean, and our sandy loam ground plus coastal humidity can slow that process if wood is stacked poorly. Seasoned firewood burns hotter, produces less creosote, and puts out less smoke into neighborhood air, which matters in a densely built area like ours. Buying wood already dried and split saves homeowners from guessing whether a log popping and hissing in the firebox is actually ready to burn. Because our growing zone is 7b with a fairly short but real cold season, most households find one to three cords covers them depending on how much they rely on wood heat versus a furnace.
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.
