The playground mulch was a little finer than I expected, but it is a really nice, soft mulch.
The online ordering, quick delivery and quality mulch is why we order from Soilutions every time!
Great for garden paths. Lasts about 2 years.
Ordered these wood chips for a playset we installed in our backyard. They are terrific quality, and they give me the peace of mind that my kids will be safe and have fun playing outside. Thank you so much for providing a great product.
Love it love it Great company great staff awesome materials Should up on time love the use the calculator to order product cheaper than using bag and have to haul home
Easy on the feet
It has a rich color, helps retain moisture, and keeps weeds at bay. The texture is easy to spread, but it does break down a bit faster than I expected. The dogs love it and keep their paws dry. Overall, a solid choice for any garden! Second purchase ✨️. Return customer.
My order was delivered as promised. I was very pleased with the mulch.
The playground mulch is very soft and yields to pressure, which is of course what you want it to do.
Exactly what I was looking for. The ladies in the office ere knowledgeable and offer great customer service. Delivery time was narrowed by morning and to the better for me. Thanks Soilutions!
