What TILZ Soils & Compost 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.

Excavating outfits frequently sell and haul fill dirt, topsoil and aggregate alongside their site work. For larger volumes they are often cheaper than a retail yard because they are already running trucks.

Because TILZ Soils & Compost 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.

Order slightly over rather than under. Coming up short means a second delivery charge, which almost always costs more than the extra material would have.

Ordering and delivery

Delivery pricing usually keys off distance from the yard, so confirm both the charge to your address and any minimum load before comparing quotes.

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.
