Soilutions Compost is a nutrient blast for your yard and garden! Prized by local farmers and gardeners for 25 years, Soilutions compost is what built our reputation for quality and value. Soilutions Compost is comprised of curated local inputs including greenwaste and foodwaste and screened to 1/2 inch. Soilutions compost is New Mexico's #1 choice for building healthy, sustainable & regenerative soil!
Adding compost to your yard is the first step toward building a healthy garden. Compost is a soil conditioner used to amend native soil by adding organic matter and crucial microbiology. Compost improves plant growth, conserves water and builds healthier soil in your yard and garden.
New Mexico has several types of native soil, from very sandy to heavy clay. Compost is the perfect amendment for any soil type: it helps sandy soils build structure to retain water and reduces compaction in hard clay soils allowing better aeration and root growth.

"Compost is the perfect amendment for any soil type you find in New Mexico: it helps sandy soils retain water and reduces compaction in hard clay soils. Use anywhere and everywhere that you have dirt and want plants to grow.
How to Use:
- Add 2-4"" layer on the surface of existing soil to replenish depleted nutrients. Lightly mix with native (existing) soil to ensure your entire planting area is receiving the nutrients and aeration your plants need to thrive. Can be used in raised beds, pots or in-ground plants.
- Add a 2-3"" layer on top of native soil and till (mix) it in before putting down sod or grass seed for a lawn.
- Add approximately the same amount of Soilutions Compost as native soil (50/50 blend) in a planting hole when planting trees, shrubs, perennials or annuals.
- Do not plant directly into Soilutions Compost, as it is too rich in organic material for your plants to survive. Soilutions Compost should be used as an amendment and mixed with soils. Enriched Topsoil or Premium Garden Soil are full soils that incorporate Soilutions Compost for you and can be planted into directly. "

Couldn't load pickup availability
SOILUTIONS COMPOST - PICK-UP
Great product. Will be needing more very soon. Thanks
Delivery was attentive, called to say he was on his way. Delivered, dropped the compost where indicated and even played with the dogs.
The compost is dark and rich .
Really liked my compost it was just what I needed to get the garden started for this year!
had a load delivered for curing before growing season. The delivery came when expected and was deposited carefully and completely on the tarp I'd laid down for it. The person delivering the load was thoughtful and pleasant. The delivered compost has a very nice granular loft, well sifted, with the expected light and earthy scent.
ordered 20 yards of compost on Friday and got it on Saturday. During the off-season the price is reasonable and delivery is quick. Delivery driver took care to put the big pile exactly where I wanted it.
Compost looks, smells and feels good. I intend to use it as mulch and unlike some compost, it is light enough for use as mulch, to be worked in at end of season.
Great carbon organic matter addition. Not sure if there is any fertility.
Was delivered as requested.
I accidentally ordered pickup and the staff was quickly able to help me change my order to delivery. The delivery service was prompt and friendly. We'll use them in the future for any of our gardening/soil needs.
