We move apartments, condominiums and homes – from very small to very large. Additional DBA - Kevcor Services.

"Proceed with extreme caution and buy full insurance!!!! If you use them, get full insurance and literally have someone stand there in the truck and watch them place every item. We provided them with bubble wrap and tons of blankets and they used 25% of it. We were moving cross country and I hired them to load our stuff up onto a trailer. They destroyed 60% of our things. They literally put our dining room table on its side on the trailer floor with NOTHING underneath it, not even a blanket. It scraped along the trailer floor all they way across the country. Almost every single piece of furniture we own was scratched severely and we had to literally throw away 30% of our furniture. We had two men and a truck unload us in our destination city and they all felt so bad for us. They said this was literally the worst packing job they had ever seen and would sign statements or whatever we needed to help plead our case or get some money back. When I called I got transferred to their “supervisor” or claims handler and she was completely defensive right out of the gate and stonewalled me Bc my wife signed the contract after everything was loaded. We didn’t know that would void everything. How do you know you have a claim until after you find out when it’s unloaded? Lesson learned. If you have a different option I would recommend that. If not use them for 100% of everything and get full insurance!!!!"

Mulch and topsoil services FAQs

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.

Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.

Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.

No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
