When it comes to compost applications for the yard of your Denver property, the options can be endless. Composts can be extremely valuable when it comes to sustainable landscaping in Denver. Garden compost, when applied properly, can provide significant benefits to the pH of your soil. Compost has even been known to improve the nutrient levels of your soil as well. ARS Landscape Materials & Supply provides the Denver area the compost options that you need to get the most out of your landscaping services. Our landscaping professionals are highly experienced and carry the knowledge needed when it comes to garden compost to bring only the very best for your Denver home.
Two Types of Compost — Which One Do You Need?
Not all compost serves the same purpose, and ordering the wrong one is an easy mistake to make. Here’s the straightforward breakdown of what we carry and when to use each one.
Premium Compost is our fully cured, three-year aged compost. It’s the one we recommend when you want to put nutrients back into existing soil — worked in around established plants, mixed into garden beds, or blended 50/50 with your native soil. It’s not something you plant directly into on its own, but mixed with existing soil it’s incredibly effective at improving the health and structure of what’s already there.
Soil Preparation Compost is composted for two years and still carries some residual heat from the decomposition process. It’s designed specifically for rototilling into existing soil before planting grass — it works into the ground fast and helps condition the soil ahead of seeding or sod installation. Like Premium Compost, you should not plant directly into Soil Preparation Compost on its own.
If you’re looking for a soil you can plant directly into, our Garden Mix is what you want — it’s our richest, most nutrient-dense blend and it’s ready to plant into straight out of the truck.

What Makes Our Compost Different
Not all compost is created equal — and if you’ve ever added compost to a garden bed only to watch your plants struggle, you already know this. The difference is almost always in how long the compost has been allowed to fully break down before it reaches you.
At ARS Landscape Materials & Supply, our bulk compost is aged for a full three years before it ever leaves our yard. That’s not a marketing claim — it’s simply how we do things. Most bulk compost delivery services in the Denver area are moving product that’s been processed for a matter of weeks or months. Ours has had three full years to complete its natural decomposition cycle, which means the heat is gone, the organic material is fully broken down, and what you’re getting is stable, fully cured organic compost that’s genuinely ready to go to work in your soil.
Why Does That Matter for Your Denver Property?
Colorado soils are notoriously alkaline and dense. They don’t hold nutrients well and they can be difficult for roots to penetrate. Soil amendment is one of the most effective natural ways to address that — but only if the compost you’re using is fully mature. Immature or “hot” compost can actually rob nitrogen from your soil as it continues to break down, doing the opposite of what you intended.
Our three-year fully cured organic compost won’t do that. It can be worked directly into your existing soil, used as a top dressing for lawns, or blended into vegetable garden soil and raised garden beds. It’s particularly effective mixed into Colorado’s native clay-heavy soils, where the organic matter helps break up compaction and improve drainage — and it’s one of the best soil amendments for Denver homeowners dealing with the Front Range’s notoriously tough growing conditions.
A Track Record Built on What’s Actually in the Bag
We’ve been serving Denver-area homeowners and landscapers since the early 2000s, and a big part of why our customers keep coming back — season after season, project after project — is simple: the compost works. When neighbors start asking what you used in your garden beds, and you’re back the following spring ordering another yard, that’s not marketing. That’s the product doing its job. We’re proud of the relationships we’ve built with this community, and we don’t take lightly the fact that so many of our customers have been with us from nearly the beginning.
