Mulch ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Alaska address and unloads right where you point.
Gravel Monkey delivers shredded hardwood mulch by the dump truck to addresses across Alaska. Loads run from 1 ton to more than 40 tons, so you order the amount that fits your project. The delivered price is calculated at checkout by ZIP code.
Because mulch is a lightweight material, a full truck carries a large volume. The size of the load you choose affects the coverage area and the number of trips needed. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Shredded Hardwood Mulch | beds, borders, tree rings, weed suppression | Fine-textured mulch that knits together to resist wind and water movement across three seasons. |
The table below shows common jobs and the depth or note that applies. Depths are guidelines; the mulch calculator gives exact amounts for your area.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Refreshing existing beds | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | Top up to a consistent depth that covers old material. |
| Weed suppression | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | Layer thick enough to block light without smothering plants. |
| Tree rings | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | Keep mulch away from the trunk; extend to the drip line. |
| New planting beds | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | Apply a depth that retains moisture and moderates soil temperature. |
| Slope where mulch washes out | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | Use a thicker layer and rake to create a textured surface that holds. |
Annual precipitation across the cities we deliver to in Alaska runs from about 13 to 76 inches. The number of freezing days ranges from about 149 to 234 days a year below 32F, depending on the location. These conditions mean that mulch can stay frozen in place for months, then thaw and need adjustment when the ground softens.
Soil hydrologic groups B and A/D are the most common across the served cities. For mulch, this informs base depth guidance: faster-draining soils may need a slightly thicker layer to hold moisture, while slower soils benefit from a lighter application. Alaska DOT&PF runs a spring load-restriction program that can affect truck routes when frost leaves the ground. Orders placed ahead of that window avoid last-minute schedule changes.

Estimating the tonnage starts with the square footage you want to cover and the depth you plan to apply. Because shredded hardwood mulch is light, a single ton covers a larger area than a ton of sand or gravel. Use the mulch calculator to convert your measurements into tons, then see the delivered price at checkout.
Order online by the ton. At checkout, enter your ZIP code to see the delivered price. A dump truck brings the material to the address you give us. Loads range from 1 to 40+ tons. Free delivery applies on qualifying orders. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off a first order. The delivery date you choose must be at least 3 business days after the order date. You pick a window: 7 am to 12 pm or 12 pm to 5 pm. A valid phone number is required. You receive an email confirmation, then a second email with the scheduled window and a photo of the load. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. Someone must be at the site during the window. The truck needs a road width of at least 12 feet. If access is restricted, the crew unloads as close as they safely can. Cancellations more than 24 hours after order carry a 25 percent processing fee. Orders cancelled within 48 hours of delivery are not refundable. Once you approve the second confirmation, the order cannot be cancelled or refunded. Inspect the delivery within 48 hours and photograph any issues. Claims need photos and must be raised in that window. Gravel Monkey will correct a wrong material, wrong location, or quality outside industry norms. It does not cover site access problems, weather changes after delivery, or natural variation in color and texture. Confirming your property can take a heavy truck is your responsibility.

Mulch can be ordered year-round. In many parts of Alaska, the ground is frozen for 149 to 234 days a year, which can delay when you are able to spread the material. Spring load restrictions on roads may also affect truck access. The delivery date you select at checkout must be at least 3 business days out.
