Use Mulch To Prevent Slope Erosion

Placing mulch on a slope is an economical and preventative erosion control. Placing mulch involves spreading a blanket of organic material on fill slopes, cut slopes, and other disturbed roadside areas to reduce erosion and cut-down on weed growth.

Main Street Materials provides the highest quality Stonewood® mulch, which we can place onto roadside slopes for our customers.

When To Use This Treatment

• Typically applied on slopes 2:1 (H:V) and flatter
• Typically applied 2″-4” deep (270-400 cubic yards/acre)

The Benefits of Mulch include:

• Transforming and beautifying the on-ramps and gateways to your city
• Weed abatement, improved potential for vigorous long term vegetation coverage
• Better water retention in the soil from Stonewood®, which helps reduce water evaporation and conserves soil moisture
• Reduces storm water runoff volume and velocity
• Improves protection from raindrop splash erosion
• Easy application by pneumatic blower trucks or bulldozers
