Smaller Hiabs are available for tight access; larger vehicles can deliver multiple bulk bags at once.

Overhead wires or low branches may restrict lifting.
If this service is needed, please ensure someone is home to assist.
6. Is mulch better than compost or topsoil?
Each has a different use:
Mulch is best for covering soil surfaces, suppressing weeds, and protecting roots.
Compost is best for improving soil fertility and structure.
Topsoil is ideal for turfing, levelling, or creating new planting areas.
Many gardeners use a combination of all three for best results.
7. How long does mulch last before it needs topping up?
Typically, mulch can last anything from around 12-18 months, depending on weather and usage. For best results, replenish annually to maintain appearance, soil protection, and weed suppression.
