Missouri Organic Recycling

Missouri Organic Recycling is a bulk landscape materials, mulch and topsoil supplier serving Kansas City, Kansas and the surrounding region. Google lists the business under 3 categories — Landscaping supply store, Mulch supplier, Topsoil supplier — which points to a broader inventory than a single-product yard carries.

The business holds a 4.6-star Google rating from 165 reviews. That tracks close to the Kansas average of 4.5 across the 109 suppliers we list statewide.

What Missouri Organic Recycling supplies

Full-line landscape supply yards stock soil, mulch, decorative stone, boulders, pavers, edging and often sod under one roof. That matters when a project needs several materials, because combining them into a single delivery avoids paying separate trip charges to multiple suppliers.

Loose material is normally priced by the cubic yard while stone is priced by the ton, so compare quotes carefully — the two units are not interchangeable and a cheap-sounding per-ton price can work out dearer.

Bulk mulch comes in hardwood, dyed, cedar, cypress and pine bark varieties. Bought loose by the yard it usually costs well under half the per-volume price of bagged mulch at a big-box store, which is why most repeat buyers switch to bulk.

Because Missouri Organic Recycling carries several material lines, it is often possible to combine an order across products — soil, mulch and stone on one truck — rather than paying separate delivery charges to two or three different yards.

How much material you need

Landscape materials is sold by the cubic yard. Delivery vehicles vary; a tandem dump truck carries roughly 10–12 yards, while smaller trucks top out near 5.

As a rough guide: 1 yard covers about 100 sq ft at 3 in; 5 yards covers about 540 sq ft at 3 in; 15 yards covers about 1,620 sq ft at 3 in.

Measure your area and decide on depth before calling. Most yards will run the volume calculation for you and will flag when stepping up to a larger load actually lowers the price per unit.

Ordering and delivery

Confirm the delivery radius and fee early in the call. Two yards quoting similar material prices can land very differently once haulage is added.

Check where the truck can actually dump. Tandem trucks need overhead clearance and firm ground, and most drivers will not reverse across a soft lawn or a new driveway. If access is tight, ask whether they run a smaller truck or can leave the load at the kerb.

Pricing for bulk material is rarely published in full, since it moves with stock and season. The business website may list current products, but a phone call will get you a firm delivered number faster.

Ratings and reputation

Of the 165 reviews on file, 144 are five-star (87%) and 4 are four-star. 14 reviews sit at one or two stars, and those are worth reading directly — complaints at material yards usually concern delivery timing or short loads rather than the product itself.

Among the suppliers we list across Kansas, this rating places Missouri Organic Recycling in the top 61%.

Across the 11 suppliers we list in Kansas City, the average rating is 4.2.

Review volume matters as much as the score. A 4.6 drawn from 165 reviews reflects a substantial track record.

Hours and visiting the yard

Missouri Organic Recycling is open 6 days a week, closed on Sunday. The yard opens as early as 8 AM and runs until 5 PM.

Saturday opening makes this a practical option for weekend projects — a real advantage, since plenty of bulk yards shut for the weekend and leave homeowners unable to collect material outside working hours.

Loading is weather-dependent whatever the posted hours say. Heavy rain turns yards to mud and makes wet material heavier and harder to spread, so call the same morning if conditions look poor.

Best time to buy in Kansas

Demand for landscape materials peaks from spring through early summer across Kansas, when yards run their longest queues and hold firmest on price. Late summer and autumn typically bring shorter waits and more negotiating room, particularly on larger loads. If your project timing is flexible, buying outside the spring rush is the single easiest way to reduce the delivered cost.

Because haulage is such a large share of delivered cost, the nearest yard carrying your material frequently wins on total price even at a higher per-unit rate.

Bulk material pricing is intensely local. Trucking is a large share of the delivered cost, which is why a nearby yard usually beats a cheaper one further out once the full quote lands.
