Hi!

I am going to be adding new garden beds and wanted to find out where I can get topsoil and mulch delivered from. I live in the Polaris area.

Thanks.

Well, there are lots of places--Jones topsoil, Mr. Mulch, Ohio Mulch, Kurtz Bros. Possibly The Andersons also. I know for sure the first 3 deliver. I did not like the quality of the "topsoil" that Jones brought me several years ago--it had too much large stones & construction debris mixed in and was basically clay with sand and and a little manure, and I have had to amend it a lot to make it a good soil for the garden beds.

You can find free composted manure on Craigslist.
You can also buy comtil (composted sludge mixed with mulch) from the waste authority (SWACO) and Ohio Mulch.

Thanks for this information! I had read elsewhere also about Jones topsoil not being very good.

I would go with Kurtz Brothers there is one in Westerville on Rt 3 We got top soil and mulch from them last year, it was good quality, they have a nice selection of mulch too.
