Soil³
Soil³ Bulk Compost Delivery
A cubic yard of finished compost in a giant bag on your driveway beats forty plastic sacks in every way that matters — cost per yard, quality consistency, and your back. The catch is geographic: delivery covers the Southeast, so check your zip code before falling in love.

Rubber Mulch (Skip It)
The bestseller we exist to talk you out of. Rubber mulch promises to end the annual re-mulch, and delivers a bed of shredded tires that feeds your soil nothing, runs hot in the sun, migrates everywhere, and is a genuine nightmare to ever remove. Wood chips are not the boring choice — they're the correct one.

Landscape Fabric Weed Barriers (Category Check)
Works beautifully for about a season, which is the trap. Dust settles on top, weeds germinate in the dust, roots stitch through the mesh, and now you're weeding a fabric layer you'll someday curse while excavating. Legitimate under gravel paths; a slow-motion regret in planted beds.
