UPDATE!
I can’t say enough good things about Mulch Mound! If you read my review below you will see I had a problem with my order. Mulch Mound was quick to respond and solved the issue with my delivery. Will definitely be a customer next year.
First time purchase from Mulch Mound!! First what I liked! Easy to order online and straight forward pricing and delivery. The driver was on time and courteous and delivered my Mulch exactly where I requested! The product is of good quality and comparable to others I have purchased from before. Now what I DID’NT LIKE! I have been mulching the same house and yard for almost 20 years. I always order the same amount and don’t have any issues with covering the same area but this year I fell about a yard short. I was home when the mulch was delivered and when the driver dumped it I noticed that it seemed a bit less than I was used to. I didn’t apply it any thicker than usual and probably a bit thinner than usual because I was worried about running out.
Our delivery was delayed but the new brown color mulch is a nice upgrade to our landscaping.
For St. Louis's Silty Clay type of soil, we recommend 2-3 inches for best weed suppression and moisture retention
Try Our CalculatorStart with your total square footage and figure 2 to 3 inches of depth. Our satellite tracing tool calculates yardage from your actual bed outlines. Silty clay in St. Louis benefits from even coverage to prevent surface crusting.
Most yards in the St. Louis area sit on Silty Clay type of soil. You may see slow drainage and firm soil that packs down, plus pH that can trend alkaline in some areas.
Hardwood Mulch
Hardwood mulch protects the surface from crusting, evens out moisture, and adds organic matter as it breaks down over time.
Mulch Mound brings bulk mulch delivery in St. Louis directly to your driveway, measured and priced by the cubic yard so there is no guesswork. We carry a range of colors and textures suited to the warm, humid Missouri growing season and the varied landscape styles found across the region.
Double shredded dyed black mulch creates a bold contrast that makes plantings stand out in any landscape bed. The rich black color holds well through Missouri's hot summers and heavy rains, suiting homeowners who want a polished, dramatic look without constant reapplication.
Double shredded dyed brown mulch offers a warm, natural tone that complements the brick exteriors and traditional landscaping common across Missouri homes. The color stays looking freshly applied through the season, making it a reliable choice for homeowners who want tidy, well-kept beds with minimal upkeep.
Double shredded natural brown mulch skips the dye entirely and gets its warm earthy color straight from the wood itself. It blends naturally into the landscape and works especially well in gardens where a clean, understated look suits the overall style of the home and yard.
Double shredded cedar mulch brings natural insect-repelling properties to beds and borders, a practical benefit in Missouri's warm, humid climate where pests can be active through much of the growing season. The color holds well over time, and the fine texture spreads easily around plants and along borders.
Mulch is a great start for St. Louis beds. Layer in fresh soil for better root growth and stone for clean borders and drainage areas. One delivery covers it.
Apply mulch after the soil warms in spring, not before. Mulching too early traps cold soil temperatures and delays root growth, which puts plants behind schedule for the growing season.
Blow or rake leaves off mulch beds in fall before they mat down. A thick leaf layer on top of mulch traps moisture and blocks airflow, creating conditions for mold and fungal problems through winter.
Mulch breaks down faster in wet climates than dry ones due to increased microbial activity. With 42 inches of annual rainfall, St. Louis beds typically need more frequent refreshing than gardens in arid regions.
A good mulch layer does more than look sharp. Seasonal weather in St. Louis can wear down beds if they are not refreshed regularly. In St. Louis, Missouri, consistent coverage suppresses weeds, steadies soil moisture, and insulates roots from temperature swings. Most beds need 2-3 inches. Natural hardwood works well for most applications; dyed options add strong visual contrast. Delivery saves time so you can focus on the actual work.
