Carolina Mulch Express

i used carolina mulch express recently and was very disappointed with the mulch. i was promised that the ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ pine/​hardwood mulch was high quality and had no scrap wood in it. the mulch was very low quality and appeared to consist mainly of scrap wood. i have laid down mulch many times over the years, and it has never looked like what was put down by carolina mulch express. their mulch looked like that cheap playground mulch. it was laid down much thinner than the three inches that i had requested. many of our stones and mondo grasses were covered with the mulch despite the assurance that the mulch would be applied with care. when i followed up with heather, she was polite and insisted that the mulch would look great after it had time to dry. when this did not occur, she said there was nothing ele she could do. she also said there was nothing she could do about the thin layer of mulch or the carelessness with which it was put down. a lot of money wasted!

I recently needed to add mulch to my landscaping to replace the pine straw I had been using. I did a lot of searching online and it came down to product and service.
Carolina Mulch Express had a brown mulch that was a combination of triple and double shredded, which helps hold in moisture and fight back weeds, but also provides some large enough pieces to provide a finished look.
The service was excellent starting with Heather in the office all the way to the guys that actually came out to install the mulch. Their blower style installation method was really cool to watch, but also allowed for a nice even delivery system that kept everything looking consistent. This delivery method may have used a little more mulch than would have been required with a normal wheelbarrow installation method, but since this was my first mulch install, I can’t be sure about that.
The only reason I didn’t give them a 5 was due to their prices being a little high, but after seeing the finished product, it really was worth it. I suggest you check around, but if you don’t find the prices to be too much, then I would highly recommend them.
