Ecomulch

Wonderful sustainably-​minded business with strong community roots. We’ve gotten over 30 yards of Ecomulch and compost over the past few years — most recently to get rid of our bermuda grass by sheetmulching. The first time we sheet-​mulched our backyard weeds, we hardly saw a weed for three years! Our new lawn-​free front yard looks beautiful with the natural mini mulch. Learn about sheetmulching at

Had a great experience with them — very responsive, and were able to make my delivery with only a few days notice. They’re the only ones in the Bay Area that have mulch that’s pet safe — we’re using the mini eco mulch for our chicken coop. Heather and Ben were professional and got our job done for us. Always like to support a family business. Highly recommend.

I have used Ecomulch a lot~ They do have the best prices in the EAST BAY! especially for the general public~ 100% pet safe, no construction materials, Trees and Trees only! Ben really knows his soil and mulch, they have helped me through a few pinches on landscape jobs too! great company, go there and stop searching the internet! You will be pleased~

EcoMulch has coupons available through the EBMUD. They have good quality mulch at good prices. We had a little snafu with the mulch being placed on the wrong side of the driveway, blocking us in. They ended up waiving our delivery charges in reparation. I would use them again, but I would park the cars in the street before they came just in case. :-)

This is a great family business with exceptional customer service (thank you for honoring CC water districts current coupon).
The natural mulch is beautiful and not full of unwanted material. I highly recommend this family owned local company.
We sheet mulched our front lawn we are so happy with the results.

What a cool and easy experience! Let our back lawn die due to lack of water in California this year. Spring is upon us now and dead brown grass just won’t work. Eco mulch was the answer. 5% off with check in. Inexpensive mulch and some pre emergent. Bam! My yard is so grateful and so am I. Pick up was quick and easy. Friendly staff. Spread the word! There is still no rain in the forecast

I was in need of soil (or so I thought) for my gigantic back yard in Livermore. Not knowing how much I would need I called Ecomulch based on some nice Unilocal reviews. There is a place in Livermore but they didn’t get very good reviews, horrific to be exact.
When I called Ecomulch they were very patient and wanted me to measure of course. When I called back I spoke with two of the nicest, most helpful guys who listened to me about the hard clay I have now, my intermittent sprinkler issues and the all day sun exposure.
So many good recommendations on how to get my flower beds to grow again. As well as when and how to water. We probably talked on the phone for about 30 minutes. Great customer service. I am so glad I got my compost from them.
When the 8 yards were delivered, the gentleman did his best to get every last piece on the tarps I had.
All in all, this was a terrific experience. Thank you so much!

I ordered top soil and compost.
The topsoil had a great deal of wood shavings in it. It now looks like mulch not soil. I complained and got another half yard, which had a lot of pea sized lava rock.
The compost has shards of glass in it.

Wonderful Soil and Mulch, Great Customer Service. Delivery Fast and helpful.
Our Garden is doing great and the front yard looks nice with mulch all over. Beats having to water a lawn!

Great products and friendly people, high service level (I worked with Casey). We had 8 yards of mulch delivered in two batches and the price was very competitive relative to the other local sources.

A great family owned local business. Environmentally conscious and the best pricing I have found thus far. I have also used their new Pittsburg location and received the same helpful service as I have at the Pacheco site. The colored mulch looks spectacular around my yard and flower beds. A++++

I was surprised to see no review for Eco Mulch. I LOVE THIS VENDOR. They are a small family business and there is no one like them in the entire Bay Area, as far as I can tell. *They sell the only screened, ornamental mulch that is truly sustainable because it is produced from urban trees.* It comes in several colors and sizes. My favorite is their Eco-​Mini natural. It is FAR cheaper — about ½ the price — than mini bark at American Soil and similar vendors, which is an unsustainable forest product (they raze forests to produce it, more or less). They deliver Bay-​wide, and their fees are modest compared to American Soil. Ask for Heather. (Berkeley Recycle Yard makes recycled mulch but it isn’t pretty — it’s all sharp pieces and I find it unattractive and the delivery fee is very high.)
