Mulch ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Redfield address and unloads right where you point.
Redfield gets about 23 inches of precipitation a year, so choosing a mulch that holds in place and drains well matters for your beds and borders. Bulk shredded hardwood mulch is a practical choice that stays put and suppresses weeds through the growing season.
Gravel Monkey delivers shredded hardwood mulch by the ton directly to your Redfield address. You pick the product that fits your project, select a delivery window, and the truck brings the load to your site.
The go-to product for local homeowners and landscapers is shredded hardwood mulch. It works well for beds, borders, tree rings, and general weed suppression. One product covers most jobs, and you adjust the depth for the look and function you want.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Shredded Hardwood Mulch | beds, borders, tree rings, weed suppression | Holds on slopes better than large nuggets, and it knits together as it settles. |
Depth is what makes the difference between a surface cover and a true weed barrier. Below are the five typical jobs and the recommended product and depth.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Weed suppression | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | 2 to 3 inches deep to block light and stop seeds. |
| New planting beds | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | 3 inches after settling, applied 4 inches loose. |
| Tree rings | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | 2 inches, keep 6 inches away from the trunk. |
| Refreshing existing beds | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | 1 to 2 inches on top, depending on what is left. |
| Slope where mulch washes out | Shredded Hardwood Mulch | 3 to 4 inches; the shredded fibers lock together and resist runoff. |
Soils mapped in the Redfield area are commonly moderately well drained. That means water moves through the ground at a moderate pace, so a standard base of 2 to 3 inches of mulch is usually enough to keep moisture where you want it. You do not need extra thickness just because the soil is heavy.
The freeze season is long here, which shortens the window for spreading and grading to late spring through fall. About 179 days a year drop below 32F, so the ground is frozen or nearly frozen for half the year. That freeze-thaw cycle can shift the mulch surface and leave bare patches if you spread too early or too late. Snowfall averages about 28 inches a year, and the salt and sand from plowing can mix into the mulch along driveways and walkways. Raking and refreshing those edges each spring is a good habit.
Frost reaches deep into the ground here and stays for months. That means the soil under your mulch may settle unevenly as it thaws and refreezes. Leveling the bed after the first full thaw helps keep a uniform look. Planning your mulch work for late spring gives you the longest window before the next freeze.

Ordering is straightforward. You pick the product and tonnage online, and your delivery is priced by your ZIP code at checkout. A dump truck brings the load to your address, typically 1 to 40+ tons per order. Free delivery is available on qualifying orders, and first-time customers can use code FIRSTTIMER50 for $50 off.
You choose a delivery window at checkout: morning, 7 am to 12 pm, or afternoon, 12 pm to 5 pm. You need to be present or have someone at the site during that window. The truck requires a road width of at least 12 feet. You get an email confirmation, then a second email with the scheduled window and a photo of the load before the truck leaves. The delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email. If the delivery cannot be completed because of blocked access or no one at the site, a missed delivery fee may apply.

Many homeowners order other materials in the same trip to complete the job. Here are the products that go with shredded hardwood mulch.
Yes. Redfield gets about 23 inches of precipitation a year, and about 45 days see at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That much rainfall can wash out a thin layer of mulch on a slope. Using shredded hardwood at 3 to 4 inches on slopes reduces washout because the fibers lock together.
Delivery cost is calculated by your ZIP code at checkout, not by tonnage alone. About 179 days a year drop below 32F, so the delivery window is limited to months without frozen ground. The price includes the material and the drop-off at your address, and free delivery is available on qualifying orders.
The driver dumps the mulch in a single pile on your property as close to the requested spot as safely possible. You need to provide a road width of at least 12 feet and a clear path to the drop area. The load cannot be spread or placed into beds during delivery.
The price is based on your delivery ZIP code and the tonnage you order. You see the total at checkout before you confirm. There are no additional fees for the standard dump truck delivery within your chosen window.
