Nice setup. The last lot of bulk mulch and soil I got weren't very good, lots of bits of rubbish in it. Hopefully the landscape place here has better quality - I'll find out when the weather is right for me to do the topdressing of the grass that I'm planning. I might get some bulk soil to build up the garden beds a bit too, or I might stick with the bags and do a bit at a time. Once I've had to move the first lot via shovel I'll be in a better position to decide!
Big fan of doing bits at a time. Made the mistake far too often trying to knock it over in one (especially soil, for some reason it always rains right before moving) and suffering for the next week lol.
