Great Product, Ease of Use

Excellent service - discount coupon for $10 utilized, delivered on the date promised but more importantly placed in the exact location on my front yard grass I had marked out with some garden tools, thereby saving me time from having to haul it up my inclined front yard. The soil is of good quality. I will definitely utilize Big Green Bag again and would recommend them to family/friends.

Delivery was as scheduled and placement…

Delivery was as scheduled and placement of the bag was dead on. My new flower beds look great and the plants love the soil. The price is great and you can't beat free delivery. I'll definitely be ordering from them again as I build more flower beds.

BigYellowBag…

I've had 6-10 bags delivered through the years and have never had a problem. This year I had 1 bag Alberta Gold delivered. The fellow who dropped it off was friendly, humorous and helpful. The website is easy to navigate. The soil is beautiful. I will continue to order from them.

We would definitely recommend this company

Ordering online was super easy. They delivered the mulch that we ordered on time and exactly where marked on our driveway. We were so happy with the first order that we placed another order for a second bag. Will definitely order from Big Yellow Bag the next time we need mulch.

The whole team was very helpful

The whole team was very helpful. From ordering to delivery I had no difficulty at all. We made a mistake and ordered 2 bags. One bag was enough. They came the next day to take the extra bag and fully refunded it back to us. The soil seems very good. We are so happy to have worked with BigYellowBag.

The absolute best

The absolute best, you can't buy soil of this quality in individual bags.....and even if you could it would cost you double I would think. Wonderful product excellent service!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I posted my original review 3 days ago…

I posted my original review 3 days ago with 5 stars, before I actually used the soil. Now that I have used it I am very skeptical of the product. The "soil" does not seem to be any better quality than the $1 bags from Walmart, but yet it is 4x the price. The soil does not seem to drain very well, it hardens in clumps, and cracks as well. I put this soil so far in my gardens and flower pots, on top of obviously good soil that was already there and now I wonder what kind of results I'm going to get. I would have preferred to email the company directly as opposed to posting a public review, but there is no email address. Based on what I am seeing so far I would not buy this soil again and I would like my money back

Reply from BigYellowBag

Sonya, I am distraught to hear that your BigYellowBag soil was anything less than stellar. We strive to have the highest quality garden soil, and it sounds like we let you down. We do have a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee that we stand behind. Please give us a call at (613) 822-8858 and hopefully we can come to a fair resolution over all of this. Once again Sonya, my sincere apologies for this. I assure you that this is not the normal BigYellowBag experience.

Great product, great delivery!

I ordered the soil online and it was delivered to exactly where I requested ( marked an X with old wood). This was a little tricky as we have a corner lot so was a tad confusing but they did a fine job. The soil is very high quality and the ease of just getting it out of a large bag is great versus carting numerous smaller bags from store to car to backyard.

Excellent Product & Service

Good quality soil delivered right to your door! Delivery was right where I wanted and on the day we chose. The soil is excellent quality. I did a lot of price comparison and this really was the best price for the volume received. The fact it was delivered right to me was a huge factor.
