Soil & Compost delivery in Troy
Do not lay topsoil straight onto metro clay. It perches water and drowns roots. Garden blend or compost worked into what is already there does far better. Tipped on your driveway in Troy.

Metro Detroit
Southeast Michigan sits on the old Lake Maumee bed — heavy clay that holds water and compacts hard. Beds here almost always want compost or a garden blend worked in rather than topsoil alone, and drainage stone earns its keep.
Southern Michigan yards generally load from early spring through hard freeze. The spring rush runs late April into June and is when lead times stretch; autumn is the quietest, easiest time to get a next-day drop.
