Sandhills Mulch
and Erosion Control LLC offers a large variety of softwood, hardwood
and colored mulch applied effortlessly and quickly at a variety of sites
ranging from
residential flowerbeds to commercial sites adjacent to high
vehicular traffic areas. Even jobs requiring mulch application in remote
and difficult-to-reach areas can now be completed more efficiently
then ever before. Give us a try and you won't be disappointed.
Your mulch requirements are installed to your exact specifications by
our professional crew using our
Express Blower™
truck.
Material volume can be
adjusted quickly and accurately from low volume applications
required to maneuver around delicate flowers to higher volume
applications required for larger,
less obstructed
areas. We use only the
finest mulch materials available here in the Sandhills and we stand
by the quality of what we provide you for your specific requirements.
When
mulching new flowerbeds, it is best to establish, at a
minimum, a 4 inch mulch base
to aid in weed control and to retain moisture in the
flowerbeds. If your flowerbeds already have a mulch base, we
recommend no more than 3 additional inches of new mulch. Too much mulch can
be counterproductive.
As our mulches are a product of nature, they are subject to natural
variations in color, particle size, texture and consistency.
Our mulch products are priced by the
cubic yard with a 10 cubic yard minimum order. Volume
discounts apply for larger orders.
Landscape and Commercial contractors: Let us show you
how Sandhills Mulch and Erosion Control can save your business time,
money, and material. Our
competitive pricing will strengthen your bottom line.

 Aged
Hardwood
Mulch -
Aged
hardwood mulch is made from the bark of hardwood trees
(primarily Oak, Hickory and Poplar), aged for
at least 1 year, shredded twice and screened to give the
mulch the right texture.
Coarse particulate size range from 5/8 to 1 ½ square
inches.
This all natural mulch
has the nice dark brown, almost black color that most people find
appealing. Hardwood mulch is the fastest composting of all
our mulches as it enriches the soil but it does hold its dark
color longer than other mulches.
Hardwood mulch is used to dress up planting beds and
around trees and is ideal for natural and sloped areas. It gives
a natural ground look with a finished touch. It regulates the
temperature and moisture of the soil, which protects the root
systems of the plants, cuts down on weeds, and adds organic
material to the soil mix as it decomposes. Healthy for your plants and
soil! |

Fresh Red Hardwood Mulch -
Fresh hardwood mulch is made from the bark of Oak hardwood trees, shredded twice to give the mulch
its texture.
It is a lightweight, long-lasting, natural deep reddish-brown
hardwood mulch.
This
coarsely
shredded bark mulch acts as a knitting mulch, great for
natural areas and will reduce erosion in steep or sloped beds.
It is
a high quality mulch which enhances any landscape
design with its long lasting appearance and beauty. It is the
choice of professionals doing high end landscapes requiring
the finest ground cover available. Fresh hardwood mulch has a tendency to break down quicker than other
products and will eventually darken as it ages. It regulates the temperature and
moisture of the soil, which protects the root systems of
the plants, cuts down on weeds, and adds organic
material to the soil mix as it decomposes. It is healthy
for your plants and soil.

Aged Pine Mulch -
Aged
pine mulch is made from pine tree bark. This decorative, finely shredded
dark brown mulch is very
easy to spread and provides a pleasant appearance. Coarse particulate size range from 5/8 to 1 ½ square
inches. Aged pine mulch
is ideal for perennials because it decomposes fast enough to
gradually leave room for the plants, which themselves will
eventually become the ground cover. It is great for annuals
because once removed at the end of the season, you can mix
the shredded pine bark mulch with the soil, becoming a
compost and conditioning it for the following spring.

 Pine Bark Mini-Nuggets
-
Mini-Nuggets are pieces of pine bark,
approximately 1 -
2½
square inches,
manufactured from the large, coarse barks of many
old-growth species of pine trees.
These smaller decorative reddish-brown
pieces are great as a ground cover.
While giving a nice rustic look to your landscaping,
they are the most durable of all our mulches, as they
decompose slowly because of their size.
Pine Bark Mini-Nuggets provide protection
against the shock or rainfall, the germination of weeds
and they also help regulate soil temperature. As a dense top mulching product, Mini-Nuggets retain moisture, help control
weed growth and soil temperature, promotes plant growth,
and are not
a projectile threat to glass windows. Not recommended for
steep or sloped areas. |
Pine
Bark Fines -
The reddish-brown pieces are little chips
range in size
from fine to 5/8 square inches. Works
great as a soil conditioner as it decomposes more rapidly than coarse
pine bark. Fines limit weed resistance and makes weeding
easier, retains moisture and regulates soil temperature. Designed primarily for
decorative purposes, pine bark fines are highly recommended for raised
beds, potted plants, and as accents in existing landscapes.
Should not be used on slopes with high rain runoff
potential. |
Aged Pine Bark Fines -
These dark brown, almost black pieces are little chips
range in size
from
fine to 5/8 square inches. Great as a top dressing soil
amendment, retaining moisture and keeping soils loose while
adding natural nutrients to feed your lawn.
Not recommended for steep or sloped areas
where runoff is an issue.
Aged Hardwood Bark Fines -
A processed hardwood mulch screened to a size fine to 3/4 inch. This product has a low ph
of 4.8 to 5.5 for use around woody ornamentals and acid loving plants to control weeds
and conserve moisture. This product gives a more formal
appearance to plantings in level and raised beds. Should not
be used on slopes with high rain runoff potential.

 Colored Mulch -
Made
strictly from all natural seasoned trees, our color-enhanced,
shredded
mulch will solve your mulch needs with a
FULL SEASON OF COLOR. Now you can enjoy that beautiful "freshly mulched" color
throughout the season.

chromate and arsenic free. |
CushySOF™
Playground Surface Material -
Playground safety is a growing concern. Our playground
surface material is a great option for child safety. Engineered wood fibers which are manufactured from "virgin" pine sources
and is the most economical playground surface material available
that meets both ASTM and ADA standards. All materials are engineered to be
two inch in size or less for maximum durability and cushion. This material is tested by our supplier and complies with ASTM safety standards for impact attenuation and wheelchair accessibility.
Our material is free from foreign material and provides a clean
safe surface for children to play on. With the use of our blower
truck, we install the chips into place without any large piles
and with minimal interruption to the children’s use of the
playground. Our installations are scheduled around the
facility’s schedule for maximum convenience. Recommended depth is 2 inches for every foot in height of equipment.
Additionally, our playground surface material is perfect for use
for walking paths and trails.
CushySOF™ playground surface material is
never produced from recycled pallets or other sources containing
potentially contaminated material. |
 Top Dressing -
All lawns become compacted over time. This
compaction reduces water penetration and restricts healthy grass
growth. Top dressing of lawns is beneficial as it
encourages new turf root growth, levels out existing low areas
while adding micronutrients which increase biological activity
in the soil. We'll apply approximately 1/2 - 5/8 inch of compost
material, ensuring that existing turf is not completely covered.
You can top dress your lawn twice a year (Spring and Fall) without causing serious
short term problems. Be aware that top dressing your lawn in the
Spring
potentially exposes a bare growth medium to
noxious weed seeds, even more so if you also aerate your lawn
which exposes dormant weed seeds. You will get plenty of benefits and fewer problems with a
once annual top dressing and aeration in the fall. |
 Animal Bedding
- Using our blower truck, sawdust, shavings or similar materials
are blown into animal and poultry barns quickly and
conveniently, with little disruption. We have access to
different types of animal bedding materials so let us know your
exact requirements and we will satisfy them.
 Mud Control
- You now have a way to control mud around foundations and pathways at new construction
sites . Workers stay drier and work more efficiently without
tracking mud into the work area. Applied with our blower truck,
mud control saves you time and money and keeps workers happy.
