Rob from Sheffield on 17/11/2024
Delivered on time and great for starting some no dig beds. You wouldn't want to pot up your annuals with it but CPA clearly states not to do that. But it's fantastic for enriching beds or starting new ones.
SJJ from Carnforth on 30/10/2024
Very pleased with hardwood chip and organic compost I ordered. Very quick response to a delivery query I had. Will definitely be using this company again
Mr. Andrei from Northampton on 21/10/2024
Organic Green Compost delivered on time and in was put in the exact place where I asked them to.
In total there were maybe (only) 10 small rocks / stones in a ton of compost and little to no plastic....so excellent.
Mine was still hot: my compost thermometer was reading 65 degrees.... not sure if all was meant to be like that but I ordered this for the spring...so no issues for me.
I am just about to order another bag...which means I am a happy customer.
Kasia from Melton mowbray on 04/10/2024
Very good quality fine compost, no plastic hardly any clumps. Used for no dig beds on my allotment. It was quite dry on arrival and as with any peat free compost it took a long while to get some moisture in it but once we had a bit of rain it holds on to it. My winter veg doing very well on it. Will buy again next year
Susan from Sandwich on 25/09/2024
Organic green compost is a great product for mulching our flower beds, the delivery was prompt as well.
Nicholas Cooper from Leominster on 10/09/2024
I bought 2400L of organic compost and am very pleased with the quality of the product which was delivered on the day I requested.
There was one hiccup in the delivery - I asked for a small delivery truck, but it was delivered by a very large truck that was unable to get up the track leading to my house, so I had to transport it myself in a wheelbarrow. I think this may have been a problem with the courier as the driver acknowledged that they had been asked to use a smaller truck.
Overall, I would recommend CPA Horticulture and the organic compost they supply.
Mervyn Squires from NOTTINGHAM on 03/09/2024
Somewhat disappointed as there was a large chunk of concrete, several pieces of sandstone and glass in the compost.

Stephen Carter from Grantham on 17/08/2024
Ordered 1200kg of the Organic Green Compost and was well impressed by both the service of delivery and for the high quality of the compost itself. really looking forward to seeing the results next year in my new raised bed.
Kathleen from High Wycombe on 09/08/2024
Your driver deliver3d the organic compact just zwhere we had asked it to be delivered. The quality of the compost was a quality product. Also lovely that no foreign body’s, stones, plastic pieces as mentioned in earlier reviews. Thankfully we got it scattered before the rain made it soggy to move. I shall certainly be ordering further items from CPA. Horticulture.
John Bowmer from Doncaster on 18/05/2024
We are very happy with our purchase of the soil improver. It is excellent quality and looks good around our borders with its rich dark colouring.
We will definitely purchase again in the future. Many thanks.
Kerli from bedfordshire on 09/04/2024
I was very satisfied with the service- the whole process from ordering to delivery was dealt with professionally and efficiently . I ordered online but due to a degree of slope on my drive, i also spoke to a member of staff who was very helpful with advice. When the delivery arrived, they were also able to manouvre the large bulk bag of compost away form the edge of my drive, down the slight slope into a practical area at the side of the house.
I would highly recommend
Lindsay Lillie from Maidenhead on 06/04/2024
Great quality compost, delivered promptly.
Graham from Howden on 03/04/2024
Good product. Prompt delivery and good communication
Graham from Howden on 03/04/2024
Good product. Prompt delivery with excellent communication.
Brian from Anglesey on 25/03/2024
Ordered green organic compost. Once again, a good quality product delivered on the expected day. Well satisfied.
David Simpson from CHELTENHAM on 21/03/2024
Excellent material, easy to spread, no smell, plants love it!
Amanda from Suffolk on 13/03/2024
Smooth process from ordering to delivery. Very generous quantity.
LET from London on 27/02/2024
Very good service. No issues at all
D Morris from Newcastle on 18/02/2024
Soil improver was unbelievable, just full of goodness and depth!
First class service from start too finish
Robert from Maidstone on 13/02/2024
Ordered the organic compost which was delivered on the day l requested and came on a pallet which the driver positioned exactly where l requested. The product was of very good quality and was easy to spread around the garden borders. No unwanted materials were found in the compost. End to end sales process went very smoothly and l would order again from CPA Horticulture in the future.
Rachel Williams from Swansea on 10/02/2024
A fantastic service from start to finish- I cannot thank the gentleman I spoke to in the office and the delivery driver enough! Both were so accommodating and informed me of times etc. Delivery was stress free and driver so friendly and so helpful. Compost was excellent quality as well. Will definitely use CPA in the future again.
Andrew Trim from King's Lynn on 31/01/2024
Excellent product and delivery.
Andrew Trim from King's Lynn on 31/01/2024
Excellent compost. No problems with delivery or product.
Mike Porter from Northampton on 26/01/2024
High percentage of 3” rocks, some clay and soil in the last batch. Have they no filter???
Hilary from Falmouth on 24/01/2024
Quick speedy delivery very helpful thank you
Claire Beckert from Stourbridge on 22/01/2024
I have ordered from CPA on numerous occasions and always found service and delivery excellent and this occasion was no different. The compost was delivered within a week of ordering the delivery driver was excellent very helpful. The bags were dropped off on our drive on a pallet and we moved them into the garden. The compost itself was more lumpy than expected and was difficult to break up but other than that it looks good.
L_G from Hertfordshire on 02/01/2024
Our order arrived on the agreed day and the delivery driver was helpful and deposited the 3 x 1000L bags where I asked him to on our sloped drive.
It looks like good stuff without any plastics etc and our plants seem to thrive on it (this is the third year we've ordered compost from CPA).
M Taylor from Bristol on 10/11/2023
Tiny issue with delivery but CPA sorted without us having to adapt too much. Pleased with product. Really consistent and without the extras (string / plastic / stones / bits of wood) I have had when buying in bulk elsewhere. The product came on a blue pallet which was confusing at first but it turns out that CHEP actually do pick up their pallets without too much trouble at all. For me this is a better option.
Chris from Lowestoft on 21/09/2023
This was a good experience arrived on the day specified , Driver very helpful , green compost was just what I wanted. I will use CPA for all my garden needs
Thank you CPA
Wendy from Coventry on 14/09/2023
Excellent compost arrived on time. Many thanks
Richard Stirland from Leeds on 29/08/2023
Good rich stuff, free delivery
Richard Stirland from Leeds on 29/08/2023
Good rich stuff. About to order again
Neil from Nottingham on 22/07/2023
Good quality compost, must contain a good amount of manure judging by the aroma once I'd dug into it! The 1200l bag is good value. Delivered on time and to exactly where I'd specified.
David from GRAVESEND on 15/07/2023
Very good product,good delivery.This product seems to be of a very good quality
Sue from Swindon on 11/07/2023
easy to order online, delivery information was accurate and delivery was good, happy with product
Lucy from Northallerton on 10/07/2023
I bought a tonne, a lot of compost and I must say, it's excellent. It does take time to unload the bulk bag but it's worth it. Excellent company to purchase your goods from. Brilliant value for money!!!
Nigel Laflin from Sutton on 25/06/2023
I bought the 1200L bag of organic green compost. It was delivered on the day expected & placed exactly where I asked on the drive so that we could retain vehicle parking. As a soil improver this is seems to be good value for money and I am pleased with the quality of the compost that was easily spread over my flower beds. Now awaiting the plant benefits but have received several comments on the impressive black appearance.
Jane from Newent Glos on 31/05/2023
Lovely rich compost. No plastic found in my 30 bags. Will definitely order again! Very pleased and satisfied.
Martin Murray from Manchester on 23/05/2023
The compost was as good as expected. Perfect size and consistency to enable me to barrow it straight onto my raised beds. The delivery guy was extremely helpful, getting the compost as close as he could to my allotment. Thank you
Pam Clark from Leeds on 18/05/2023
We bought the 1200L bag of organic green compost. As a soil improver this is really good value for money, it was delivered on the day we expected & placed at the top of our drive... perfect thanks.
Carola Beresford-Cooke from West Wales on 19/04/2023
Customer Service was very friendly and helpful when I phoned to ask about delivery. Delivery was easier than I expected, on the day stated and with a helpful driver who put the pallet more or less where I wanted. The compost looks, smells and feels great but I have only just started spreading it, so can't comment on how things will grow in it.
Tim Alcroft from Fairford on 16/04/2023
Product delivered when promised by a very helpful driver. Quality looks as good as ever. Will order again next year.
Tim Alcroft from Fairford on 06/04/2023
Product delivered on scheduled day by a very helpful driver. I presume the green compost will be as good as previous deliveries.
Keith Russell from Chichester, West Sussex on 31/03/2023
Excellent product, ordering and delivery. All good. I even guessed correctly on the quantity needed. The only minor issue was not being able to move the pallet from the roadside, which was very close to passing traffic. This meant I needed to shift the contents by wheelbarrow quite quickly. A forklift with different wheels, that can work on gravel, would help many customers.
Banks from Norfolk on 30/03/2023
Compost didn’t turn up, had to chase, told driver had ‘run out of hours’ and would be delivered next morning, didn’t turn up again, had to chase, told it should be there within 30 mins… man turned up at 7pm and spent an hour trying to unload pallet but gave up as it was stuck behind some other person’s items which required a forklift truck to remove, he took our compost back to depot. Chased CPA again and they said they were sorry but couldn’t do anything. Compost finally turned up ~4pm two days after it was meant to arrive. Lots of wasted time off work waiting at home for delivery and keeping driveway clear for delivery. Wasn’t even offered a voucher or delivery charge refund. Terrible customer service. Would not recommend this company again.
Simon Jordan from Southamptom on 12/03/2023
This was my third pallet load of green compost as I have been very impressed with the quality. Used as a mulch and soil improver. A few bits of plastic in it, as advised, but very little in fact. A straightforward delivery, had to move by hand, but made easy by ordering bags, so easy to move around the garden. Also ordered some John innes number three, Not quite so impressed with the value for money, but nevertheless good quality.
Mike from Northamptonu on 26/02/2023
How many lorries does it take to deliver 2 bulk bags? 2 - one to get to the destination and one to offload it as the first didn’t have a fork! BA-BOOM!! It got placed exactly where I needed it though. Getting past the bizarre delivery, the compost is good quality with only a very small percentage of large stones, clay and soil. Would use again.
Colin A from Nottingham on 23/02/2023
Lovely product. Nice structure. I used it as a mulch. It's very dark, which really accentuates the plants. I've now used three different products from CPA as a mulch:
Mushroom compost - good product and the most economical. Slight downside is it doesn't look as good (cosmetically) as the other two.
Composted bark fines - looks fantastic, but is the most expensive. When it's wet it smells like a pine forest.
Organic green compost - also looks fantastic, but is cheaper than the bark fines. I think this has the best overall balance of the three in terms of product quality, price and appearance.
That said, I'd recommend all of them. And I think - entirely anecdotally - that swapping your choice of mulch every so often is probably good for your soils balance too.
S. Harvey from Sandwich on 20/02/2023
Great service, arrived 2 days after ordered, on time as requested. Soil was good quality, all consistent. Will definately order more again.
Tim Boyce from Lymington on 15/02/2023
This was our third order in three years. The product is good, helpfully packed in manageable sized bags and secured to a pallet. The order arrived exactly on time and the driver unloaded the pallet onto our drive without fuss. The product has been very good for the garden.
Jan from Bath on 11/02/2023
Lovely dark well composted material. Delivery as requested. Thank you
Chris Clarke from Alton on 06/02/2023
Compost delivered on time in a huge builders bag. As we shovelled it out of the bag it bulked up well and we were able to cover a large area. The compost was dark and rich and was perfect for enriching our tired flower beds. I will buy this compost again from CPA
Chris from Alton on 06/02/2023
Delivered on time in an extra large builders bag. This product is dark and rich and perfect for adding to our beds to enrich the soil. The compost bulked up well as we shovelled it out of the bag, so it covered a very large area as required. I would definitely buy this product again, it is a good product at a good price.
L_G from Herts on 29/01/2023
3 x 1000L bags of compost were delivered to our home on the agreed date. The driver managed to get all three bags onto our sloped drive so it was not in the way of our neighbours. We used CPA Horticulture last year too, and the compost seems to be good quality.
Kevin from Leicester on 24/01/2023
Ordered another 3 full pallets this winter to mulch a tired old garden with hard clay soil. Tried this last year and preferred it to the Mushroom compost we used last winter. It's fine and well rotted, and because it's so dark it makes the plants stand out too.
It's gone up about 20% in price since last year which made me think twice, but it's still cheaper than anywhere else if you buy in full pallets, and the bags work for us as it's easier to carry through the garage to the back garden.
Delivery was on the arranged day, although the courier struggled to get the pallets off the truck due to the weight.
Bromley from Somerset on 15/01/2023
My second purchase from CPA. The 60 bag pallet arrived as expected with a requested call ahead so I could be there to receive. The compost is black gold and looks, feels and smells as it should. I had great veg last season as a result of CPA mushroom compost, I am in no doubt I will have similar success this season with the organic green composty (weather permitting)
Graham Blunt from Leicestershire on 17/10/2022
Excellant service and good quality compost.
Richard Stirland from Leeds on 02/10/2022
Have not used all the product yet, but had a peek in one bag and it looks like quality compost and it was delivered when agreed
Wendy B from Shepton Mallet on 27/09/2022
Great service and delivery as always. Good quality compost that I put as a mulch on a new border. I will be ordering more of this.
Anon from on 09/08/2022
The customer service was very good & helpful. I haven’t used the product yet so can’t comment.
Kevin Emmett from Milton Keynes on 04/08/2022
Delivery excellent as ever. I've not had this product before, previous order have been mushroom and multi-purpose composts. I am impressed with the composts.
Jim Chapman from Gloucester on 23/05/2022
Excellent product, very helpful driver
Val from Stockport on 13/05/2022
I ordered a bulk bag of organic compost to dig in and break up our heavy clay soil. This does the job brilliantly. Delivery was bang on time and the driver was friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
Naomi Gibson from Abingdon on 12/05/2022
Wonderful service. The delivery man could not have been more helpful. The compost was good quality and my top dressed borders look amazing
Sue from Congleton on 10/05/2022
Good quality compost delivered 2 days early
Bruce Mann from Exeter on 24/04/2022
First time we have ordered this. Impressed.
Brian Grant from Spilsby on 19/04/2022
Good product delivered on time courteous driver product looks good
Brian Grant from Spilsby on 19/04/2022
Product delivered when requested , driver good put pallet where I wanted it.
Looking at compost it looks good quality. Price paid about right cheaper than garden centre.
Peter from Worcester on 11/04/2022
This was my second order from CPA (different product now) - very satisfied with the quality in both cases.
Compost looks very good - mixed with a bit of water (as it seemed a little dry) - there was a bit of smell but this has gone after couple of days - dark charcoal (nearly black) colour – looks great at borders!
Delivery was good and on the day agreed - the person made a great effort to move as close to our house as possible on a not that solid surface.
Thank you.
Di Kalvik from Fishguard on 08/04/2022
Excellent service and quality product
Di Kalvik from Fishguard on 08/04/2022
Impressed. The delivery was on time and driver was really helpful in getting bulk delivery in place. Product was still warm from sterilisation. We have started using it as soil conditioner and with topsoil for raised beds and it seems excellent. Would buy again….
Janet Warren from Playden, Rye on 03/04/2022
Not many companies offer large amounts of compost etc without it being delivered in a builders bag so I was really pleased to find CPA. Communication and delivery were excellent as was the organic green compost that I bought.
Would recommend without hesitation and I will be ordering again.
Kevin Bolton from Leicester on 24/01/2022
Very dark, very fine compost. Well rotted, and if anything maybe a little dry as had to water it after spreading, but it made moving the bags easier I suppose!
Delivery was great from TPN, on time with good comms
Jane Rue from Milton Keynes on 17/01/2022
Compost turned up on the agreed date, very nice driver, had read my instructions re access. The compost looks lovely, very clean-looking and crumbly. I will be taking it over to my allotment, a barrow-load at a time.
AmandaMcC from Norfolk on 31/10/2021
Wrong sized lorry turned up and couldn’t access the property so had to drop pallet at the curbside which meant we had to move it all that day. Luckily we had ordered 40ltr bags which are a great size if doing it yourself. Quality appears as good as ever but won’t really know until we see how the plants react in the spring. Have used CPA on several occasions and never been disappointed - just need to get your couriers sorted!
Kathy from Bognor Regis on 28/08/2021
Excellent product; efficient service; always able to speak to a person and would recommend the company service. Delivery always on time and delivered by a friendly and helpful driver.
Russ Shacklock from Milton Keynes on 16/05/2021
Delivered on time but no phone call in advance to say when delivery would be.
Should have ordered two bags but then noticed the ph value. Certainly composted down to a black mulch and it does break up the soil. Rather acidic possibly due to using so much leylandii?
John from Oxford on 03/05/2021
Delivery was on time . Access is difficult in our narrow country lane but the driver was very efficient and friendly. The compost seems very good . My only complaint is exhaustion , having spread 60x40 litre bags over my borders in the last 3 days! Happy to recommend the product.
Helen from Harrogate on 26/04/2021
Lovely crumbly easy to use compost, ideal for my heavy clay. Service and delivery excellent.
Malcolm B from Ipswich on 22/04/2021
A good service. Informed of delivery arriving which was very helpful. Soil conditioner seems to work well
Beattie from Bath on 22/04/2021
Having previously ordered the mushroom compost and been very satisfied with it, decided to order the organic green compost. Of good quality and was delivered on time by a very helpful delivery driver. Used the compost to enrich the soil around our shrubs in our borders. Would buy again and definitely recommend.
Beattie from Bath on 22/04/2021
Have previously ordered the mushroom compost and as that has always been of good quality, decided to order the organic green compost. Again, good quality, and was delivered exactly on time by a very helpful delivery driver. The compost has been ideal for enriching the soil around our shrubs in beds and borders. Would definitely buy more and totally recommend,
Alessio Gennari from Sawston on 15/04/2021
Good product. I ordered it because mushroom compost was out of stock but I am satisfied with the replacement.
Sara from Worcester on 05/04/2021
Very happy with the delivery and the quality of the product.
Wendy from Bideford on 05/04/2021
Delivery a little delayed but carrier kept me informed and I was not really inconvenienced. Delivery driver helpful and cheerful and delivered both pallets exactly where needed. Compost good quality thus far but the proof will be in the growing. I already use the mushroom compost and find it brilliant. I have high expectations.
Lizzie from Leeds on 05/04/2021
Excellent quality and quick delivery.
Katherine from Chelmsford on 28/03/2021
Great product, vast and efficient delivery
Barry from Ledbury on 17/03/2021
Delivery late as always. Rancid smell suggests it is fermenting. At least it wasn't totally waterlogged like the last load. Not good quality and not good value for money.
Karen from Nottingham on 10/03/2021
Excellent compost which we used as a mulch on herbaceous beds. Compost was still hot when it arrived and contained no bits of plastic. Prompt and efficient delivery
Hannah Copcutt from Bristol on 23/02/2021
As usual, an excellent product from CPA and delivered with no fuss or bother. I've been buying CPA products fro the last year or so and have always been happy with the quality of soil improvers supplied.
James from Castleford on 18/02/2021
I'm so impressed with this compost, it was genuinely a joy to shovel it into my planters. Very good quality, good amount of manure mixed in, smells wonderful, I'm sure I'll have some impressive veg by the end of summer. Have ordered another bag to have as spare, and free delivery was a bonus!
T.Q. from Thatcham on 06/02/2021
Compost delivery very quick. Organic green compost of good quality, with that nice characteristic smell of well composted material. I've already ordered 4x 1000L and it has been consistently good quality.
Keep it up!
Phil Gleave from Warrington on 30/01/2021
I bought this for my flower beds, Ordering was easy and delivery was as promised, the product looks really good better than I have had from other suppliers. Will definitely use again.
Toni Frascina from Sheffield on 03/12/2020
Looks good clean stuff, no bits of plastic or the like. Used as a mulch on top of a newly planted herbaceous bed. Densely packed bag, but easy to spread
sue from HASTINGS on 06/10/2020
Big bag of green manure, really helpful delivery driver and the guy I spoke to at CPA went the extra mile when I needed to change the delivery date and request a smaller vehicle . Helpful throughout thankyou sue
