Stupid me, didn't get a chance to write down the phone number advertised on those huge yellow bags that hold a ton of soil. I see them sitting on people's driveways. Does anybody know which company that is or the phone number? Thanks :)

I think it is Halton soil. did a quick check on 411.ca and here it is

Harwoods (Halton Sod)
12144 Steeles, Milton, ON L0P1E0
(905) 878-1900


Could be wrong though :roll:

I think the company is Halton Soil/Ontario Soil. They advertise a lot in the Champion, usually with a 10% off coupon if I'm not mistaken.

I believe it costs $139 per beg (plus tax :evil:) and it includes delivery. I'm not sure about pickup when you're done (filled with garden waste).

Actually, not sure of that number, but it is Halton Sod, number I have is 905-878-1011....they had a $15 off coupon but that expired on May 15th....Total is approx $146 for the dirt including delivery. If you have an EMPTY bag, they'll give you $5 for it. They won't take your waste.

(We're having our 3rd bag delivered on Tuesday)

Thanks for soil reference it will definitely come in handy! Happy planting everyone!

How much soil is actually in those bags? I assumed just by seeing them while driving by houses, that they were 1 cubic yard? Am I way off?

even if it is 2 cubic yards, that price seems extremely expensive just for the convenience of having it in a bag.

Last year and this year both, I got Triple Mix from Taylor Nurseries (North of Derry on 5th Line) for only $26/cubic yard plus taxes.

Last year we had 6 cubic yards delivered, so there was an additional $30 delivery charge, but this year we brought our own trailer and picked up 2 yards. Much cheaper for more from those yellow bags....
