Husky 3.5 Mil 10 ft. x 25 ft. Black Plastic Sheeting (2 Pack)

We were having 4 yards of mulch and 4 yards of compost delivered to our house, so we decided to go with this plastic sheeting instead of more expensive tarps to hold the mulch and compost deliveries. We opened and laid out 1 roll of the plastic for each material on our grass in an area out of direct sunlight (important so the stuff underneath doesn't get hot and emit moisture like in direct sunlight). We had the mulch and compost dumped in the middle of the 10 x25ft sheet and it was big enough to hold the pile, plus had extra on each side to pull up over the piles and secure the edges with bricks, to cover them from the elements. We ended up having about 1 yard of each left over, so we're going to keep them covered and stored like that over the winter for use next spring. So long as the outer edges aren't tight and leave some humped up openings for air channels, the mulch and compost should be able to "breathe" and not get mildewed or rancid. The plastic seems to be thick and tough enough, so it should survive upstate NY winter temps, winds, and snow. So we'll see... If that doesn't work, I will update this review in the spring of 2026.

I used this black sheeting in my flower bed, and it worked great for keeping things neat and protected. It's thick and doesn't tear easily, which is nice.
