Just what my new build garden has…

Just what my new build garden has needed, I used the mulch for the last 2 years and hardly a weed to be seen! Not only does it keep the weeds at bay it’s a gives a lovely finish to the garden but my god my soil has improved massively already! Glad I’ve used it even if it does seem pricey, I get 2x ton bags and have some left to top up when the blackbirds have fun!.

Really excellent service

Really excellent service, from ordering to delivery and the mulch was great quality. Maintained soil moisture very helpfully during the very dry summer. Will definitely use again.

Exceptional Delivery Service

I would like to comment on how the delivery driver ‘went the extra mile’. He arrived at our property with our purchase on board and prepared to use the hiab to unload.
Unfortunately, the hydraulics failed, but rather than drive off and declare he would return another day with another lorry, he persevered, found appropriate spanners and fixed the problem within about half an hour.
This meant he could unload my two bags of soil improver.
What a star!

Excellent product

Excellent product, which was easy to use. Delivery was great and we would certainly recommend the mulch for regular garden use. Feeds the soil, improves the texture, and looks good.

First time purchaser of mulch

First time I've ordered mulch: it couldn't have been easier and was delivered exactly where I wanted it to go. It's now spread liberally on my garden and looks brilliant. I'm looking forward to improved growth and flowers and will be ordering it again next year.

Soon to order my 3rd annual delivery!

I’m on my second delivery of this superb mulch and will be ordering my third early next year. It was recommended to me by my ‘keen gardener’ sister. She was right it’s great stuff. It’s clean, easy to distribute, does not smell and, unlike mulches I’ve used in the past, doesn’t disappear in weeks.
I now recommend it to others. It presents good value and ordering & delivery is easy.

Fantastic mulch delivered to door - we have used Apsley several times and their ,ulch has genuinely made a real difference to our beds, especially this year when it was so dry. We do two layers, one spring and one late autumn. Highly recommend them - good value and high quality
