Gillian from York on 06/09/2024
Great product and excellent service
Mark from Tunbridge Wells on 02/09/2024
Good product and easy ordering. Delivery was fast and efficient.
David Bradley from STAFFORD on 08/08/2024
After much deliberating and research, I bought a jumbo bag of Decorative Bark Chippings (2000 Ltrs) . The ordering process was easy and when I phoned regarding the delivery, the person that I spoke to was friendly and helpful. The order was delivered on the day specified. The jumbo bag was transferred from a large lorry by a powered pallet lift truck
and placed on my drive where I requested.
The mulch is easy to use. It is light but doesn't blow away in the wind and stays where it is placed. It has improved the appearance of the garden above my expectations. It makes the colour of the flowers more vibrant and the foliage look greener. It also has a very pleasant smell. An earthy pine smell, like being in a pine forest. It is too soon for me to comment on other qualities like weed suppression water retention but I recommend this product
Graham from Huddersfield on 16/06/2024
Nice dark bark. Not the cheapest around but good stuff. Customer help is excellent and the delivery was great.
No complaints at all. Have bought twice from them now.
Mike Ward from Ludlow on 13/06/2024
This is the third time I’ve ordered the 40 bag pallet of 70 litre bags from CPA. Every delivery has been problem free. The first delivery from a year ago has held up very well, and is still looking good and suppressing weeds effectively. I will be placing another order soon.
Nigel from xxxxx on 07/06/2024
Excellent service. Always very helpful. Can certainly recommend them..
Kevin from Colchester on 04/06/2024
Really great product, delivered quickly and best price. Will be doing a repeat order very shortly!
Alexandra Owen from Bratton on 29/05/2024
I ordered 60 bags of 60 litres of Contract Decorative Bark. Unfortunately I received only 58 bags.
The bark has been put on the patio beds and is looking and smelling lovely. Highly recommend.
Alexandra Owen from Bratton on 29/05/2024
I ordered 60x60l bags of Contract Decorative Bark. Unfortunately only 58 bags arrived.
Regardless, the bark has now been put on our beds and is looking really lovely and decorative.
Bob Howard from Chelmsford on 19/05/2024
Very good quality bark chippings, and very good quality. The driver even managed to offload them onto our gravel drive, other companies won't try, and leave them next to the road
Helen from Chester on 07/05/2024
I have had a few loads of bark and compost and am always satisfied. The only thing I would say is that the sacks aren’t recyclable so I have put 60 sacks in waste.
Dafydd from Wokingham on 18/04/2024
High-quality product, delivered on time as expected. The delivery driver was friendly and I was impressed they use What3Words to guarantee delivery to the correct location.
Ordering some more ...
David McGregor from South Molton on 10/04/2024
Just as it said on the description. So pleased I am ordering a second bag.
Stuart S from Sheffield on 23/03/2024
Great products as usual, bought from you for the last 5 years and quality and delivery was exceptional as always. Driver very helpful
Well done CPA
Matt Harris from Boston Spa on 21/03/2024
Good quality product. Delivered on time, by a very helpful operative.
Farooq Hassan Sheikh from Lutterworth on 02/03/2024
It’s lot darker than previous orders I have made. It looks well but darker than expected
Laura Alcock from Altrincham on 20/11/2023
Excellent product and delivery service. I will be using again.
Myra from Buckinghamshire on 19/11/2023
Maritime Pine 24 - 45.
A nice bark to put on the beds which will hopefully last for many years. A very nice quality and appearance. Didn't go as far as expected, maybe because of the size of the bark. We'll be ordering more.
Packaging and delivery was very professional. We'd used CPA before, which is why we go back to them - a nice company to do business with.
Laura Alcock from Altrincham on 19/11/2023
Excellent quality I would definitely recommend
Alastair Duff from Maidenhead on 10/11/2023
Ornamental bark was delivered on time and is of high quality.
I’m happy.
A W from St Annes on 24/10/2023
This was my second order from CPA-horticulture and both have been very good. The deliveries were easy and the huge bags put up our drive just where we wanted them. The woodchips and bark have been good quality as well. I will be using CPA again.
Jenner from Cheltenham on 18/10/2023
Good service, great products and straight forward delivery. I will be re-ordering. Highly recommend.
kate from bristol on 17/10/2023
great quality product. excellent delivery. will order again.
Amanda from Ringwood on 06/10/2023
Superior products all round. The bark provides very good coverage and surprises the weeds in my birders well. The 70ltr bags allow for easy storage and are pretty easy to move around. Excellent product and one of many purchased from CPA. Highly recommended
Amanda from Ringwood on 06/10/2023
I have been bartering all my bulk garden supplies from CPA for a while now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. The bark is a superior product, covers well and stays looking good for a long time. The easy to handle 70ltr bags are great and ensures the product stays fresh for longer. Outstanding customer service and help is always on hand when you need advice. Highly recommend this company and their products
Jana from Dereham on 25/08/2023
First time I have ordered bark in bags with this company. Price comparable to large bulk bag and so much easier to handle. Will now be ordering bags for subsequent deliveries. Driver extremely helpful and although we had to unload a few bags due to weight issues with the sack truck, he remained cheerful throughout and moved the bags/pallet exactly where I asked. He was from the Fakenham depot.
Leslie from Cirencester on 11/08/2023
This was my second order for decorative bark.
The price has increased quite a lot since my first order but having said that, everything has increased in price.
The colour was as good as before but the bark was a bit larger in size. It looks more attractive than some of the bagged garden centre offerings.
R J Gooch from Lowestoft on 26/07/2023
This is the fifth time I've ordered bulk bags of bark from CPA and every transaction has been seamless and problem free. Driver called before delivery, arrived on time, helpful and polite. I will continue to use in the future.
Alex from Portsmouth on 18/07/2023
Great service from start to finish. Website is easy to navigate. Decided on the ornamental bark with lots of information on the website to help decide. Delivery as arranged with no problems. Bark looks beautiful under a row of standard hornbeams. Without hesitation I would order again from CPA Horticulture. The product delivered is worlds apart from bark I’ve previously bought from DIY sheds and garden centres.
Mike from Ludlow on 09/07/2023
Excellent quality. Ordered the 40 bag pallet for the second time - it’s a fair bit cheaper per litre than the bulk bags. Looks really great on my borders and has hugely reduced all the weeding I was doing previously. Excellent delivery service - the driver also helpfully moved the pallet up my tarmac drive with his electric pallet truck. Highly recommended product.
Nick from Haslemere on 26/06/2023
Arrived as promised and great quality.
DaveC from North Norfolk on 27/05/2023
Very good product. Checked first with a sample bag and went for the pallet of 70ltr bags. Not much difference in price v builder bag and far far more easy to spread than dig out of a large bag!
Sandy from Southampton on 27/05/2023
Excellent product, order and delivery superb, really helpful. Product is excellent quality, looks fantastic. Thank you
Ken Adcock from Birmingham on 24/04/2023
Great quality product. Purchase 40 bag pallet of this for second time. So much better than from any garden Center. Great service on the phone from Paul.
Jan Asztemborski from Dereham on 03/04/2023
I have been using CPAs contract bark on our borders for a number of years. Always good quality and looks good. Recent purchase no exception. Delivery service excellent too.
simon from Gloucester on 13/03/2023
Very pleased. Good quality bark and delivery on time and efficient.
Neil from Birmingham on 24/02/2023
Excellent product from CPA as usual although chippings a bit smaller than last year (not a problem). Equally typical, pallet delivery went exactly as planned. Highly recommended ( 1 x jumbo bag).
Mark from Colchester on 10/02/2023
Really good value bark when compared to almost any other source
Sheila from Wokingham on 21/11/2022
This is my second order of ornamental bark. Great product and excellent customer service. Quick turnaround for delivery. Will definitely use CPA again. Thank you.
Sheila from Wokingham on 21/11/2022
This is my second order and very impressed with the service and quality of ornamental bark. Will definitely use CPA in future.
Thank you.
Sarah Lloyd from Waterlooville on 16/11/2022
Excellent product delivered on the day of my choosing, repeat customer.
Sarah Lloyd from Waterlooville on 16/11/2022
Excellent product delivered on the day of my choosing. Repeat customer
Ian Oakes from Stratford-on-Avon on 19/10/2022
Easy to use website, good range of products and value for money. Delivered on time with very polite delivery driver. Very pleased with the product. Would use again and happy to recommend.
bob from STOKE-ON-TRENT on 28/09/2022
Good looking, nice colour and size ornamental bark chipping, good choice for a bit of quality.
fast delivery and nicely packed
Anna Pitt-Stanley from Malmesbury on 01/08/2022
Always a pleasure dealing with this company for both bark and soil. Quality remains consistently high.
David Ullathorne from Bracknell on 30/07/2022
Delivered on time. A 1200litre pallet of bark was just what my garden needed to show off the separate plants and cover the earth and weeds. I'll be getting another load next spring.
Craig Cassidy from Hertfordshire on 13/05/2022
I have used this firm and product before, service excellent, delivery prompt.
Highly recommend
Debra Geary from Barrow in Furness on 01/04/2022
We’ve used CPA contract bark numerous times over the past years. LOVELY bark, great service, will continue to use!
Wendy from Shepton Mallet on 01/04/2022
This is the second time I have ordered chippings from CPA. Impressed with the quality, service and delivery.
J K from Harrogate on 28/03/2022
Very happy with the product, service and delivery. I will be ordering more
Helen Jennings from Diss on 09/01/2022
I’ve used this company a few times now and am very happy with the quality of the Bark. Recommended to other gardeners wanting a good product.
Stephen McPherson from Maidenhead on 31/05/2021
Bought the convenience bag option back in Feb 21, just applied it around the garden and it was surprisingly still moist in the bags. Nice thick layer on, though turns out I need more to spread over another section. So going to grab a couple more bags to finish the job. Stops weeds, and most probably slugs as the bark is really chunky. Very pleased.
John Sterne from Luton on 17/05/2021
Purchased Ornamental Bark
1 Pallet 30 x 70L Bags Contract Ornamental
Well packaged and was delivered exactly where I asked it to be dropped.
Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.
Will definitely reorder
Steph Grimley from Nottingham on 10/04/2021
Purchased the ornamental bark, excellent service, delivery and product. Would recommend and will be ordering more. Thanks
Mr Savage from Sheffield on 03/04/2021
Really good product and delivered when they said. Driver very helpful, had 3 deliveries now would recommend to anyone. Well done CPA
Katherine from Chelmsford on 28/03/2021
Great product, fast and efficient delivery
Peter D from Brecon on 26/03/2021
Very good product. Delivery time was a mess and my message about large trucks in our small lane had not been passed on from CPA to the haulier. That said, CPA and the haulier otherwise did their best.
Ian Martin from Corby on 22/03/2021
When I think of landscaping I always go to CPA Horticulture. As always, my recent order of Ornamental Bark was of the highest quality. I ordered the bulk bag which was delivered on time and without fuss ( it does stand over 6ft high on the pallet). While righting this review, I was also take the opportunity to recommend their top soil - also of the highest quality
Andrew from Cheshire on 15/03/2021
Excellent product. Have ordered several times with bulk-multipacks - consistently v high quality
Paul from Macclesfield on 08/03/2021
Good sales service and an excellent product, best I have used. Slight hitch with delivery. It was promised for Friday but I had to chase it at the end of the day when it didn't arrive. In fairness it was then delivered at 9.00am on the Saturday morning.
Would readily recommend CPA Horticulture and their Contract Ornamental Bark
Christopher Glastonbury from RUSHDEN on 21/02/2021
Top class product exactly what I ordered delivered on time and good delivery no problem. Now looks great on my borders spot on.
Rob from Sedgebrook on 25/01/2021
The bark was very good quality and has worked really well as a path into our wood. The delivery driver was excellent and did all he could to get the large bag where I wanted it. I would recommend this product and service.
Gerald from Westfield on 27/11/2020
Product Good
Delivery bad
Gerald from Westfield on 27/11/2020
The product is first class
However, despite me selecting a small delivery vehicle an 18 tonne tuned up and I declined to take delivery and then had to wait three days for a redelivery
J F Porter from Gloucester on 14/11/2020
Just what I expected and needed on a new garden and delivered on my drive effectively on time.
John Rodd from Hereford on 09/11/2020
Very pleased with the quality and colour of the material. Material delivered at the agreed time and the driver was very helpful in placing the material as close as he could to my ideal position. All in all, extremely satisfied and will buy again, but hopefully not for two years or so!
Kim from Northwood on 20/10/2020
Lovely size, smell and much nicer than the usual DIY Store bark.
Andy from Leeds on 19/10/2020
Great product, delivered on time and driver helped move pallet to best area in my garden. Many thanks
Erica Williams from Doncaster on 15/09/2020
Apart from the slow communication that the delivery was delayed a day, the bark was just enough to spread all around the garden and it looks and smells lovely. Now just to wait and see if it keeps the weeds down and helps retain moisture. Many thanks for a great product at great value.
Robert from Ilmer on 12/09/2020
Good product .. great texture and reasonably priced
ian from chard on 24/08/2020
Free flowing and easy to handle bags make simple to apply
Geoff S from Rochford on 21/08/2020
Only used a few bags so far, but like the look of the bark.
Easy to order and delivery service was very good.
Tony Harrison from Mathon on 14/08/2020
Excellent product and very reasonably priced. I was a bit concerned about having to move 40 x 70 litre bags but the delivery driver positioned the pallet for me and individual bags were quite easy to carry.
Highly recommended company.
Peter Latham from Leighton Buzzard on 06/08/2020
Great service and excellent product.
Richard from Bearsted on 04/08/2020
Good product. Superb delivery driver who phone in advance and left sacks very neatly, exactly as requested.
Jacqui from Doncaster on 30/07/2020
Very pleased with the ornamental bark. Smells lovely and fresh, is a rich dark colour- just what we wanted!
Delivery driver was lovely and obliging too.
Richard from Cardiff on 29/07/2020
Really pleased with this bark I used 40 bags for the paths around four 5m X 5m raised beds and it instantly improved the appearance of the whole area.
Anna from Malmesbury, Wiltshire on 27/07/2020
Second order and again, equally as happy with the quality and service. Excellent. I'll be back.
Nic Monks from Liphook on 26/07/2020
Top quality product, well packed in recyclable bags. Delivery process is excellent plenty of information and very helpful delivery company.
Helen from Birmingham on 24/07/2020
Quality product and reasonably priced
Had a problem with delivery but this was the transport company’s fault and Toby at CPA was very helpful.
Would definitely buy from CPA again
Steve Harrison from Sunderland on 11/07/2020
Order was received on time, friendly driver went out of his way to get the bark as near to the garden as possible. The difference between this product and the bark you can buy from the big diy places is night and day. Garden looks fantastic would highly recommend the bark to prospective purchasers.
Paul Carvia-Meadows from Sherborne on 06/07/2020
The delivery was well arranged and I was kept up-to-date at all times. I wish I ordered a larger bag as think I will need it but it is very easy to handle and spread. Will definitely order from here again.
David from Northampton on 06/07/2020
Product arrived as expected, good quality and on the agreed date. Thanks for the good service.
Debra geary from Barrow in furness on 27/06/2020
Ordered this bark twice now, absolutely love it, great size, smells fabulous. Will definitely be my supplier of choice now!
C V Ward from Clevedon, Bristol on 23/06/2020
I had a look on various websites for bark that was FSC Approved, CPA website was really user friendly and good price as well as good reviews!
Arrival of the bark was quick as I was able to choose the date and was updated and confirmed day before. Delivery was excellent, the gentleman was really lovely and friendly, positioned the pallet on the drive to allow vehicle access for me.
I would highly recommend and will be using again
thank you!
Ann Ibbetson from Huntingdon on 23/06/2020
I have had 120 bags of this mulch so far over the last couple of months. The garden looks all the better for it. It forms a good mat over the soil and it is definitely locking the moisture into the soil during these hot summer days. We are on clay and I hope that as this mulch breaks down it will help to condition the soil and make it easier to work. I am about to order another consignment which I wouldn’t do if I wasn’t 100% pleased with the product. I have ordered the bags of mulch because it’s very convenient and easy to move around. The bags aren’t heavy so I can manage them myself ( I am a lady in my 70s ).
The deliveries have arrived as promised and the delivery driver is most helpful.
Ken Adcock from Birmingham on 10/06/2020
High quality product with great service. Courier delivered exactly where we asked. Highly recommend CPA.
Greg from Norfolk on 13/04/2020

Fantastic product, have been ordering this over a few years now. Very pleased with the look of it, much nicer than many products out there.
