Would Not RecommendI am extremely disappointed with this order. I specifically purchased 15 bags of premium black mulch, but instead I received 11 bags of plain wood chips. Not only was the quantity wrong, but the product itself was completely different from what I paid for. To make matters worse, I had a worker at my home who was already paid and prepared to lay the mulch. Because of this mistake, I had to reschedule the work and pay for a wasted visit, which cost me additional time and money. This experience w...
Good product
Would RecommendPerfect for my job; did notice a difference in coloring from my first batch of 10 bags to the second batch; maybe the first batch was from last year? Still very happy with the quality and availability of this product

Seamless Process and Loading
Would RecommendThanks to the Gardening/Landscaping and In-Store PickUp departments. Keith, the manager of the In-Store PickUp department, was excellent and assured me that he would ensure the process was seamless. No pains, all gains. The two gentlemen who loaded the mulch onto my truck were also very helpful and got my vehicle loaded with no issues. Many thanks to the personnel in both departments for all of their help. I will definitely be returning to make other purchases. Signed, One Happy Customer

It’s perfect for ornamental gardens!
Would RecommendI was looking for a finely cut mulch for a newly redesigned portion of my yard so I took a chance and tried Preen! The color (russet red) was perfect, the cut was just what I wanted and the weed control was a welcome bonus.

Bags full of unpulverized wood
I purchase approximately 12-14 bags of Preen black mulch every year—for the color and the added weed prevention. I was greatly disappointed this year at how much big wood pieces—not very aesthetic in a garden and side of front door scape, were in at least half the bags. These big pieces had to be discarded. Since the bags of mulch are based on weight, and full large pieces of wood weigh more than mulch, Preen really put one over on me this season.
