Amazing order to delivery service
Amazing order to delivery service from Simon. Kind, respectful, and really helpful! I ordered some topsoil and compost and got it delivered the next day and exactly where I needed it! I know that it may sound strange as the soil is just soil but I can gladly say that now I know what top-quality topsoil and compost look and smells like. I'm going to order again and make sure to warmly recommend Midlands Compost.

Quick and friendly!
They responded incredibly fast to my order, confirming delivery would be the next day. I wasn't in but my parter said the person that delivered was very friendly and helpful. Yet to use the compost, but it looks really good! Will likely be ordering more soon.

Good evening,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and so pleased you were happy with the service.
I'm sorry you were not expecting this to be in unsealed bags.
We do this to save on cost for the customer. Sealed bags would mean much more cost for the product and we pride ourselves on the best possible products at the best price.
Our aim is to make sure all our customers are 100% happy with the service and I will call you tomorrow to see if we can do anything to make sure you are perfectly happy.
Kind regards
Simon

Top quality compost
Top quality compost. This was a repeat order as the winter baskets are doing so well on the first lot I ordered.
Excellent comms and prompt delivery.
Much better value than any of the Sheds that can’t match the quality.

Good Evening,
Thank you for leaving us a review, this means so much to us all.
I can only apologise again for the delay, as explained I did injure my back which unfortunately set the deliveries back a couple of days, however I did complete the delivery within 7 days of the order being placed, as explained within the terms on the website. I did offer a refund to compensate this at the time as we pride ourselves on perfect customer service, apologies again that you were dissatisfied with the delivery service.
We really appreciate your feedback and taking the time to leave us a review.
Thank you
Simon
Great Compost. The service was a dream but the compost…
The service was a dream but the compost is even better. Lovely smell, good brown colour, well decomposed and an even fine consistency. I have more on order!

Reply from Midlands Compost
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, our compost, like very few of our competitors is screened to 10mm not the usual 20mm, this gives such a fine consistency and also means that any lumps that are in the compost simply breakdown with the smallest of touches. The smell is always a good sign of decent compost.
We look forward to seeing you again next week, its nice to know we have gained another returning customer.
Kind Regards
Simon

A very good service, not many deliveries are taken to the place you need them.
Always takes the compost to the part of the garden where it is needed, he even helped me to spread it on my garden!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and we are so glad you were pleased with the service as part of this, we are always happy to assist with putting this where needed, although we do ask that this is mentioned in the notes when the order is placed so that we can allow time for this.
I hope to see you again

Thank you so much for leaving us a review and taking the time to do so.
We have always aimed to make the ordering process as easy and trouble free as possible, and us much as we do say a 7 day delivery window from ordering (to most areas) we always try to deliver faster than that.
