An upcoming project is going to generate about 1.5 - 2 yards of excess soil. This soil will require amending before becoming useful as it is clay heavy, crappy fill that a builder used. I know it will require some compost in addition to other amendments to make it useful.

For the compost, I've noticed that prices and quantity are all over the place from as little as a few bucks to as much as $20/bag. I may have even seen a guy at a farmers market selling 5 pound bags of mushroom compost or worm castings for something like $30/bag. It's not possible (or practical) for me to generate enough on my own in time for this project.

What brand or brands does everyone recommend? I don't need the "best", but I would love the "best value". Bonus points if it is pre-bagged. I don't have a pickup/truck, nor do I have a practical space to store excess compost.
