Excellent delivery and excellent products
Helen from Newbury on 05/10/2023
Needed to move 14 rhododendrons. This compost has been perfect. They are looking so much better now that they are in the correct balance of soil. Delivery man was very accommodating and helped us get the compost onto our property.
Many Thanks
Helen

Needed to move 14 rhododendrons. This ericaceous compost has been perfect . They are all doing so much better now in this compost compared to where they had originally been planted. Delivery man was very accommodating helping us get the load where we needed it even with a bad back.
So thanks!
Mrs Gillian Chester from Upavon on 17/07/2023
I am very pleased with the ericaceous soil you delivered to me. It has filled a small raided bed that I have had built to enable me to grow some heathers etc.
The delivery man was most helpful and put the pallet exactly where I asked. Your company was recommended to me by the Leckford garden centre at Longstock in Hampshire. Thank you again.
Ken from Ashbourne on 19/06/2023
Excellent product, delivered on day specified. The delivery driver was friendly and helpful placing the pallet in a convenient place for me to ferry the bags into the back garden. Good service fully informed from order to delivery.
Rose from London on 04/06/2023
Fine and consistent texture, dark colour, it seems good (no woody bits or plastic - both I hate). Delayed delivery due to third party but good communications from the sales team so all fine in the end. £125 for 850 litre bag of ericaceous + john ines = seemed expensive at the time, but look at the price now, ha); £25 delivery was steep! (April 2021 was a very expensive time for any delivery I guess) Review written in June 2023 after having used the whole bag.
Beverley Alexander from Bristol on 10/10/2022
No problems with the delivery but the compost is so dry that it is exceedingly difficult to use. Damping it down was also difficult as the product floated rather than absorbed the water. Time will tell what the plants think of it.
Kevin Emmett from Milton Keynes on 12/09/2022
Slightly drier than I was expecting but, as ever, excellent.
Ian Scott from STOCKTON-ON-TEES on 07/08/2022
Great product delivered efficiently. Compost delivered dry and easy to handle. Transport was efficient and communicated well on a change of delivery date.
What's not to like?!
Ian Scott from STOCKTON-ON-TEES on 06/08/2022
Great product, easily handled for planting. Delivered on-time with good communication from carrier.
I will be troubling CPA again, very professional.
Z. J. Qureshi from Oxford on 02/05/2022
Timely delivery. Excellent compost, the best I have ever used. Fully staisfied. Will certainly order more next year.

Rosetta from London on 12/04/2021
Ericaceous compost soil mix with peat, 750kg, arrived in good shape after a few hiccups at depot causing a few day delay, good communication with CPA and delivery company is appreciated however. A builder's bag is filled to 3/4 or so, seems the right amount. Crucially, the compost soil mix is dry, consistent so far (no strange objects near the top later), of good slightly fluffy texture and the right kind of dark brown colour, it over all has a reassuring appearance (to my non-expert-frequent-user eyes), so I have high hope for my acer and blueberries, and magnolia. I am somewhat relieved although still feel the pain of the price a little (noting this being a special purpose compost). I would like it to be peat free in future please CPA team...
Larry Tucker from Bishop’s Stortford on 27/03/2021
Lovely stuff! Very easy and efficient service. Driver put exactly where we wanted it.
Dawn from Oxford on 12/03/2021

Great product, smooth transaction, great customer service.
Trevor Fossey from SLEAFORD on 15/01/2021
Great compost, Good texture. Delivered on time, pallet truck driver was amazing (deep snow). Will definitely use company again.
Dave from Banbury on 30/09/2020
Excellent compost, perfect tilth with no lumps, twigs or litter that you get in a lot of online compost.
Arrived on the day it was scheduled.
Dry and easy to handle.
P.R. from Hove on 06/09/2020
Efficient ordering and delivery. One huge plain bag will need to be slowly emptied from front drive to rear garden but will order again from them. Very pleased.
ian from chard on 24/08/2020
Good product for potting on and planting out. Bags are ideal size for ease of use
Phil from Chichester on 09/08/2020
Very pleased with the quality of the compost and the delivery service.
Andrew from Manchester on 05/12/2019
Great product, well stacked in strong bags, ideal
Will from Hartlepool on 28/02/2019
Bulk bag was packed to the limit and wrapped over with black polythene to keep the compost from getting too wet if it rained. Looks like an excellent product and I am looking forward to see my rhododendrons take off after stagnating for several years in the wrong type of soil.
Alan Dunstan from Reading on 24/12/2018
It was easy to order and arrange delivery on line. Needed to check delivery options as Xmas break suggested 7th January. Spoke to HQ and we agreed 21st or 3rd January.
This call was on 19th December.
Two pallets arrived on 21st. Driver was very helpful. Great first experience. Will order more next year.
Brian from London on 22/10/2018
This looks to be excellent stuff - friable, good colour and with substance. Too early to say what the plants will make of it!
Tracey from Carmarthen on 25/08/2018
Excellent service, price, delivery and product.
Tracey from Carmarthen on 25/08/2018
Excellent service from start to finish. Easy to order, and calculate amount needed. Kept up to date with delivery. Delivery was excellent and product is wonderful. Came dry and thergire esduer to move. Would definitely use again and will recommend to others. Almost don't want to plant anything it it as it looks so tidy!!
David Langton from Teignmouth on 11/02/2018
My second order. Very good. Delivery updates very helpful.
David Langton from Teignmouth on 02/02/2018
Excellent. So much better than you get from garden centres and cheaper
Trish from Woking on 20/06/2017
Lovely quality ericaceous compost and well packed. The compost arrived dry so it was much lighter than it would otherwise have been. The delivery was on the day specified with an hours notice by phone from the driver, who made the effort to offload exactly where we asked him too.
Mary from LYMINGTON on 14/03/2017
This is the third load of this compost that I have ordered. It is great and the CPL service is excellent.
Louie from Holbeach on 04/03/2017
Great service, thank you very much.
Paul Angelides from Nottingham on 30/01/2017
Excellent service as always. Swift delivery, good communication and good quality compost.
Tito Perez-Valido from London on 06/12/2016
Great service and quick delivery
Elizabeth from Cambridge on 25/06/2016
Very quick delivery, originally ordered for Friday but they managed to change the delivery to Wednesday instead. Great customer service, looking forward to planting our plants in the soil today!
Bryan Donald from Loughborough on 22/06/2016
3rd purchase this year and everything from the ordering to delivery and the product itself is excellent. Only slight downside is the weight of the pallets and quality of the pallets - latest pallet broken, so we had to "hand - ball" the bags 30 metres.
Chris Blow from Saham Toney on 20/05/2016
Good quality compost at a good price quickly delivered by a driver who took the trouble to put the pallet where I asked him to
Mary from Lymington on 17/05/2016
This was the 2nd bulk bag I've had. Good quality and easier to deal with in bulk as I find the bags too heavy. Good, prompt delivery.
Paul Angelides from Nottingham on 29/04/2016
Very good and efficient service and delivery. Compost of high standard and I am a returning customer.
Louise Ford from Worcester Park on 22/04/2016
Our azaleas and rhododendrons love the soil and the driver was very polite on delivery
Louise Ford from Worcester Park on 22/04/2016
The best soil ever for azaleas and rhododendrons and Japanese maples they love this soil and the consignment was delivered on time and the driver was very polite on delivery
martin from hertfordshire on 10/10/2015
very pleased with the product, looks very good stuff. great service from time of order to delivery many thanks
John Dawson from Shepton Mallet on 15/06/2015
Product looks good.
However I specified a 7.5 ton truck because of our access situation.
An 18 ton vehicle was used such that my wife had to assist the driver in man-handling the pallet and I had to spend a couple of hours decanting the dumpy bag into a wheel barrow and pushing it the last 50 yards.
john from brentwood on 21/05/2015
As a trade customer i found the product and service very good, was not aware it would be in plain bags but not really a problem
john from brentwood on 21/05/2015
We are a commercial customer and are pleased with the product and service. Did not expect plain bags but n9t the end of the world!
Paul Bellis from Dorset on 04/05/2015
Good compost - hope our magnolia and rhododendrens enjoy it.
A shame the delivery driver drove over the paving stones next to our back door and cracked three of them despite an very wide driveway and farmyard to manoevering.
Chrisi from Shepton Mallet on 17/02/2015
Looks really good stuff. Hope my rhododendrons do well in the new bed.
One pallet was badly stacked and caused the delivery driver a problem. Fortunately my gardener was there so he helped unload 1/2 the pallet manually.
Jen from London on 07/03/2014
Our azaleas and rhododendrons loved it!!!
