Roll out the protective, beautiful mulch carpet with our Native Mulch! With a varied particle size spanning from fines shreds up to 6", this mulch forms a tightly woven mat that is designed to protect healing soils from erosion in New Mexico's harsh environment. It is the perfect choice to protect areas affected by challenging natural conditions: no amount of wind, rain--not even monsoons can float this mulch away. It will even hold up to steep hills that need protection during and after re-vegetation.
Mulch is a necessity in any garden! Not only does it beautify your landscape, it provides crucial protection for your soil and plants. Mulch adds a beautiful layer to your soil that suppresses weeds, improves water retention and builds soil health. It also acts as a buffer against extreme temperature fluctuations, helping to insulate soil in the winter and protect from extreme heat in the summer.
Soilutions products are sold in bulk quantities measured by the cubic yard (3’x3’x3’).Ourhandy coverage calculator will help you easily figure out how much compost, soil, or mulch you need for a successful project.
There are two easy ways to visualize a cubic yard:
One cubic yard will generally fill the back of a standard sized pick up truck bed.
One cubic yard is equivalent to about 27 standard sized soil bags (1 cubic ft) that you would find at a nursery or home improvement store.
How to Use Coverage Calculator:
Start by measuring the area you want to cover. To calculate square footage, multiply width and length of your project area (Length (feet) x width (feet) = square footage). Enter that information into the Coverage Calculator.
If you know your required depth, enter it into the Coverage Calculator
Most customers choose to round up if they are in between numbers. There is nearly always a use for a little extra soil, compost or mulch in any landscape or garden.
Depth recommendations for common applications. For more details check out our guides:
- Apply a 2-4" layer over any area in your garden or around plants to suppress weeds and ensure the soil retains moisture. Especially effective around the base of plants susceptible to nutrient loss due to run-off
- Apply a 2-4" layer on slopes, exposed flat lands and areas susceptible to flooding to reduce runoff and maintain nutrients in your soils
- Lay a 2-4"" layer to any outdoor walkway or recreational to create a pathway with natural weed suppression."

I didn't realize that some pieces of mulch would be rather large, making it a bit impractical as a surface to walk on. Not your fault--I should have paid more attention to the details on the website. I'm happy to have it in my perennial beds, though.
rich smelling mulch, has some sticks but that's good cause I can use then around the perimeter. Wasn't sure if the square footage calculator would work but it nailed it! Delivered a day early even. Great customer service! Best bang for your bulk for getting mulch or soil. Beats buying all those bags!
Mulch is good; call before arriving (given full day delivery window)
The product was as advertised, and the driver put it where we requested. He did catch us away from home as the delivery window was 8AM - 6PM, and he didn’t call first. I’d recommend a call 30 minutes prior to arrival.
Adding the native mulch in place of landscaping stone has made such a difference! My yard looks so much more alive. I’m looking forward to the benefits to the soil the mulch breaks down over time. I’ve received several compliments from neighbors
Amazing truck driver / driving skills - lovely mulch. Want to get more mulch soon.
I felt bad that this huge ginormous truck was used for my small order of 3 cubic yards, but it was almost worth the gas to watch the truck driver back into my really narrow driveway so skillfully. Very nice product and my trees look happier already.
