Can you mulch too many leaves?

• <div><p>It’s possible to over-mulch leaves. If the leaf mulch is thick enough that it’s blocking and smothering the grass, that’s a problem. Ideally, you should still be able to see the grass when you’re done mulching to ensure its ability to continue growing. The solution is to make another pass at the top layer of leaf mulch to collect some of the top layer.</p></div>

How do I dispose of excess wood?

• <div><p>Wood is a very versatile material, so you can either compost it, use it for firewood, turn it into wood chips, or save it for future projects. If you don’t want excess wood cluttering your garage or workspace, you can call local community centers or schools to see if they have a need for it.</p></div>

Recommend. Had a deck built. Very quick and efficient. Awesome customer service. Need to work on better clean-up. A year later, I am still finding unused screws by the deck area. And also screws were screwed in crooked in some areas making the wood chip.
