You can order delivery three ways:

1. Online: Use our product and collection pages (for example, the Premium Mulch Collection) to choose your material, select delivery, and checkout.
2. By phone or form: Use the contact information on our Contact Mulch and Stuff page to reach us directly.
3. In person: Visit our yard at 760 S. Nova Road, Ormond Beach, FL 32174 to select materials and schedule delivery on the spot.

Online orders allow you to request a preferred delivery date range. We confirm the actual delivery date and approximate time window based on routing and truck availability, as described in our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies.

Delivery fees are based on distance from our yard, estimated drive time, and the equipment required (dump trailer vs. larger truck or multiple trips). Our website and Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies page outline typical fee structures for local deliveries in Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach, Port Orange, Palm Coast, and Bunnell.

For complex jobs (multiple loads, long distances, gated communities, or restricted access), we may quote delivery manually so the price is fair to you and to our drivers. If you have questions, visit our Contact page to reach us before ordering.

Our drivers always try to place material where you prefer, but safety comes first. Trucks and trailers must stay on pavement or other hard, stable surfaces that can support the weight.

• We avoid low overhead wires, trees, and tight turns that may damage equipment.
• We cannot drive on soft lawns or areas likely to sink or rut.
• The driver has final say on where it is safe to dump, per our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies.

If your preferred spot is not safe, the driver will dump in the closest safe and accessible location to protect your property and our equipment. If you have a challenging site, please contact us ahead of time.

Not always. You do not need to be home if:

• The material is paid for in advance.
• You clearly mark or describe the dump location in your order notes or via our Contact page.
• There are no gate codes or HOA rules that require your presence.

If we are unsure about access or placement, we may call you before dumping so there are no surprises. Specific details about access, drive surfaces, and obstacles are covered in our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies.

Heavy rain, lightning, or extremely soft ground can make it unsafe to deliver and dump bulk material. If weather is an issue, we will contact you to adjust the timing or reschedule to the next available slot.

If you see bad weather approaching and want to check on your delivery, please visit our Contact Mulch and Stuff page and reach out so we can coordinate with you.

Yes. We load pickups, landscape trailers, and utility trailers every day. Our loader operator will ask what you are purchasing (for example, mulch, river rock, sand, or topsoil) and how much your vehicle can safely handle.

It is your responsibility to know your truck or trailer’s weight and volume limits, especially for heavier materials like rock, sand, and paver base. If you are unsure, please contact us before you arrive.

If our 1.0 cubic yard loader bucket is wider than your bed, or a toolbox reduces the opening, we will:

• Discuss how much material you want to carry.
• Use partial scoops or a smaller loader if available.
• Load slowly and carefully to avoid damage.

In some situations we may recommend delivery instead of pickup if we cannot safely load the amount you need. You can always review our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies or contact us to discuss options.

Sometimes. We cannot mix bulk mulch, rock, sand, and soil in one loader bucket or dump trailer without cross-contamination, but you may:

• Use tarps or plywood dividers in your own truck or trailer.
• Do separate trips if you need clean separation of materials such as mulch and rock.
• Combine bagged products, edging, fabric & accessories with bulk material.

If you plan to pick up several different materials, feel free to contact us ahead of time so we can suggest the most efficient approach.

In most cases, yes. Florida law requires loads to be secure and not blowing or spilling onto the roadway. We strongly recommend bringing:

• A tarp that fully covers the load of mulch, rock, sand, or soil.
• Straps or rope to secure the tarp and any loose items.

If you have questions about how much material your vehicle can safely handle or how best to secure the load, please reach out before you arrive.

As a general rule of thumb:

• 1 cubic yard of mulch covers about 100 square feet at 3 inches deep.
• At 2 inches deep, coverage is roughly 150 square feet.

For flower beds and around trees, 2–3 inches is typical. For new installations or weed suppression, 3 inches is often recommended. To dial in your project, use our Cubic Yard Calculator when ordering from our Premium Mulch Collection.

Coverage depends on rock size, but a good starting estimate is:

• 1 cubic yard covers roughly 80–100 square feet at about 2–3 inches deep.

Larger 1"–1½" river rock will cover on the lower end of that range because of the air gaps between stones. For river rock and other stone options, browse our Decorative Rock & Aggregates Collection and use the Cubic Yard Calculator to size your order.

Our coarse and mason sands are commonly used for landscaping, leveling, paver projects, and certain turf and horticulture applications. Many customers use products from our Sand Collection for lawn and garden projects.

As with any sand or aggregate, you should match the product to the specification for your project. If you have a detailed spec sheet for your grass, plants, or soil mix, please contact us so we can help determine whether our sand is appropriate for that use.

We occasionally receive calls from nursery schools and other institutions asking for “playground mulch.” Requirements can vary depending on safety ratings and fall-height standards.

Our Premium Mulch Collection includes several products that may be suitable for certain playground or play area applications, depending on the specification. If you have a written specification from the school, city, or manufacturer, please share it with us so we can determine whether our products meet that requirement or suggest an alternative.

Yes. Our primary CAT loader bucket is a true 1.0 cubic yard bucket. When we say “one yard,” we mean an honest, full yard of material.

Some competitors use smaller buckets (for example 0.75 yard) and still call each scoop “a yard.” Our full-yard bucket is a core part of our brand promise and why many customers tell us they get more material per dollar from Mulch and Stuff. You can read more about our full-yard honesty on our About (Veteran-Owned) page.

If a full 1-yard bucket is too wide or too tall for your bed or trailer, we can:

• Use partial scoops.
• Feather the bucket slowly while watching for clearance.
• Work together with you to load in multiple lighter scoops.

Safety and protecting your vehicle come first. If we do not believe we can load safely, we may suggest delivery instead. For more on delivery options and limitations, see our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies or contact us to discuss your specific vehicle and project.

We accept major credit and debit cards and certain electronic payments. Some in-yard transactions may also be paid in cash. Online orders are paid through our secure website checkout using the product and collection pages such as:

• Premium Mulch Collection
• Decorative Rock & Aggregates Collection
• Sand Collection
• Soil & Fill Dirt Collection
• Paver Base Materials

For larger commercial or repeat customers, visit our Contact page if you have questions about payment options or invoicing.

Yes. Florida sales tax is collected on taxable materials and delivery fees where applicable, in accordance with state and local regulations. This applies to bulk orders placed through our collections (such as mulch, rock & aggregates, and sand) and to delivery fees described in our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies.

If you are tax-exempt, provide a valid Florida resale or exemption certificate before we process payment so we can apply it correctly. If you need to submit or update your certificate, please contact us.

We understand that plans change. Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to change materials or reschedule a delivery. The earlier you reach out, the easier it is for us to adjust routing.

Changes requested well in advance are usually easy to accommodate. If the truck is already loaded or on the way, changes may be limited and could involve a rescheduling or return-trip fee as outlined in our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies. To request a change, please use the contact information on our Contact page.

Installation of Alpha Edge is straightforward:

1. Use a flat shovel or edger to dig a narrow trench the width of the edging base.
2. Place the edging into the trench at your desired depth and alignment.
3. Backfill and tamp soil, rock, or mulch on both sides to lock it in place.

The weight and pressure of material on each side of the edging holds it firmly without separate stakes. You can browse Alpha Edge and compatible connectors in our Landscape Edging, Fabric & Accessories Collection.

A practical starting point is:

• One staple every 12–18 inches along seams and edges.
• Extra staples around corners, curves, slopes, and high-traffic areas.

For example, a 50-foot run of fabric may use 35–50 staples depending on wind exposure, soil conditions, and how flat the ground is. When you order weed barrier from our Edging & Fabric Collection, our calculator tools and yard staff can help you round up to the nearest convenient staple quantity.

Yes. This is often the most efficient way to get everything to your site at once. We typically:

• Load bulk material (such as mulch or rock) in the dump trailer.
• Carry edging, fabric, and staples from our Edging & Fabric Collection in the truck bed or tool area where they stay clean and dry.

When you plan a bulk mulch or rock delivery, consider adding Alpha Edge edging, weed barrier fabric, and staples to the same order. If you have a large project or special handling needs, please contact us so we can plan the best way to load and deliver everything together.

Standard delivery fees generally apply even if you are only ordering edging or fabric, because the truck and driver time are the same whether we deliver a small order or a full load. Delivery fees are outlined in our Delivery Terms, Fees & Policies.

For very large edging orders (for example pallet-level quantities that require extra manual offloading or multiple trips), we may quote an additional handling or delivery charge to cover the extra labor and time. If you are planning a big project using products from our Edging, Fabric & Accessories Collection, please reach out before placing your order.

On platforms like Marketplace, people scroll quickly and many send a price question without reading the full description. To keep things simple and consistent, we:

• List the price clearly in the ad and on our website collections such as Premium Mulch and Decorative Rock & Aggregates.
• Reply with the same price that is posted, plus any applicable delivery or tax details.

If you have questions about what is included in the price or the size of the “yard,” we are happy to explain how our full 1.0 cubic yard loader bucket works. You can also read about our veteran-owned, full-yard honesty on our About (Veteran-Owned) page.

We price our materials honestly, using a full 1.0 cubic yard loader bucket, rather than discounting a partial yard and calling it “a load.” In other words, our “deal” is that you receive the material you paid for at an honest measurement when you buy from our mulch, rock & aggregate, sand, and soil collections.

For larger contractor or multi-load projects, we are always willing to talk through true cost per yard, delivery efficiency, and overall value compared with higher-priced or short-loaded alternatives. If you are planning a larger project, please contact us so we can review your material list and delivery options.

The basic formula is:

• Measure the length and width of the area (in feet).
• Decide on your desired depth (in inches).
• Use our Cubic Yard Calculator to convert square feet and depth into yards.

Our calculator is designed to help customers in Ormond Beach, Daytona Beach, Port Orange, Palm Coast, Bunnell, and surrounding areas quickly estimate how many yards to order for local projects. You can access it at any time from the Cubic Yard Calculator & Materials Guide page: https://mulchandstuff.com/pages/cubic-yard-calculator-mulch-rock-soil.

We intentionally round up slightly in many cases to help you avoid coming up short. Real-world beds are rarely perfect rectangles, depths are rarely perfectly uniform, and some settling is normal. A small buffer can prevent the need for a second trip or another delivery fee.

If you are close to a full-yard break point when ordering from our mulch, rock & aggregate, sand, or soil & fill dirt collections, you can always contact us and talk through whether it makes sense to stay at the lower quantity or add that extra yard as a buffer.
