Fantastic company! A huge thank you to Grillo Services for donating and delivering trap rock for my son, Zack Geremia's Eagle project at the Bryan-Andrew House in Orange. Everyone at Grillo that we spoke to was absolutely wonderful and soooo helpful. They were very kind, helped us to determine how much we needed, delivered it exactly when they said they would and, even called us to validate drop off location. We are indebted to Grillo Services and would HIGHLY recommend them.

The Benson-Crump Memorial Community Gardens Program thanks the Grillo family for their generous donation of compost for our community flower beds and PAR (Plant-A-Row) for the hungry plots. Their compost is outstanding and the attention and support that we have received from Mike and the family makes what we do at the Community Gardens so much more meaningful. Highly recommend for all gardening needs!

Same day order and fast delivery of 5 yds of mulch, conveniently dropped where i asked them to and not one issue at any time, these guys rock, they are fast and thorough in everything they do, the driver even called to confirm once he arrived because i was not home, anything you need when it comes to your home-care and lawn give these guys a shout, they really are the BEST!!!!!

Grillo's has donated a huge amount of mulch and soil to Bridgeport Mutual Aid that we've used to build vegetable gardens in people's yards in Bridgeport. The owner was extremely responsive--on the same morning I asked he dropped off two truckloads of materials before noon. They also donated to us last year. It makes a huge difference--our project couldn't run without soil. Thank you so much!!!!

I am a SUPER happy and satisfied customer. I bought 5 yards of garden soil from Grillo. I however got it tested before I purchased. The test results were very satisfying. The delivery was very smooth and ON TIME. I had a minor issue which was immediately taken care of by Mr. Sean.

I have been providing lawn services in the Milford area for several years. Grillo Services has been my go-to-place for my supplies including mulch, top soil, compost and stone. Great prices and always available in the quantities I need. I’ve had great results with their compost product when overseeding and spot-seeding lawns. Their premium mulches are excellent!

Doesn't matter who you ask for help in this place. If they work there, they know their stuff. The guys in the office are very knowledgeable and accomidating. You might only spend 10 minutes with the Grillo guys. But, you'll leave without a doubt in your mind, you went to the right place

Ordered 1/2 chord of firewood. It had a substantial coating of mud. After stacking, it burns OK. I don't expect firewood to be clean, but not covered in mud would be great.

We just had Grillo services drop off 5 yards of mulch to our house. It was easy to order over the phone, service was friendly, and delivery was quick and neat. The mulch looks to be good quality and looks awesome put down in the yard.

I recently put together a nice swing set for my daughters, and enclosed the area with 4 x 4 wood railroad ties. Looked great, but needed some mulch to prevent any injuries if anyone were to fall off. I called a place in Milford , Grillo Services, and was extremely pleased with the knowledgeable staff and Service I received. The gentleman I spoke to suggested IPEMA certified playground chips. I gave him my dimensions, and received my 5 yards of chips the next day. I spread them in the area, and It came out beautiful !!!I feel at ease knowing my children are safe on their new swing set.Thank you Grillo Services.....Would highly recommend their products !!!!

Great garden soil. I arrived here with my little tiny trailer attached to my VW Golf. They loaded me up with half a yard and I was on my way back to East Norwalk. A guy with a loader approached me within a minute that I arrived. He said he would be able to precisely fit the soil in the trailer and that is exactly what he did. It was only $15 for half a yard.The soil will be used for my raised bed garden.

I need to take a minute to let you know how unbelievable this company is. I needed a dumpster to clean out some junk from my parents house, and was recommended by many to contact Grillo Services. After talking with them, they recommended what size dumpster they thought I should need. Before I committed, I looked around at other companies to see if they really were the best deal. After doing some research, I realized quickly that many other companies will allow you to rent their dumpsters for MAYBE a week, and at almost the same price. Grillo rents you theirs for 2 WEEKS! So, I contacted them again, and let them know that I would definitely like to use them. After they recommended one of the bigger size dumpsters, I THOUGHT I knew what I was doing and requested the smaller one instead thinking I wasn't going to use up as much room as I originally thought. The driver dropped it off, and I let them know prior that it was a tight street and a small driveway. I have NO idea how he did it, but he dropped it off EFFORTLESSLY. But, little did I know, after I started working, he was right. I should have used the larger one! Well, after I contacted them, again, they actually sent me the larger one (that they originally suggested, but I didn't listen to) and swapped out the smaller one the very next day, which happened to be on Christmas Eve. They were more accommodating than I ever would have imagined. Not only did I bother them a million times, but they did absolutely everything that I requested even though i'm sure I drove them crazy. On Christmas Eve. They're amazing. I don't know what these other people are talking about on these reviews, but this company is wonderful and I would HIGHLY recommend them to absolutely anyone.

I've ordered their organic compost and garden soil for three years now - that stuff is like magic for growing veggies! I don't know of any other services that do an organic soil or compost on a commercial scale locally. Great product, great prices, the best, friendliest customer service - what more can you ask for!

Contacted Grillo today when my regular mulch delivery service didn't answer the phone. Was surprised to find out that delivery fees were less than a company that was closer to home (ordered 4 yds of playground mulch.) Personnel were friendly on the phone even while busy. Offered same day delivery and arrived within projected time frame (12:00pm-1:00pm.) Driver (Brian) was courteous (worried about my lawn), skillful (had to navigate tight quarters to reach back yard), and friendly (to me and my children.) Good work Grillo! We will definitely be calling again!

Grillo Services may just be the best kept secret in Milford. For those who don't know, Grillo's makes topsoil, a "garden mix" (50/50 compost and topsoil) and mulch for landscapers and commercial property owners. So why would you want to go there? They also sell to residential customers, unlike most other bulk mulch customers. They also deliver to residences.I found out about Grillo through some friends of mine who had been ordering their garden mix for years and had nothing bad to say about it. I'm happy to say, neither do I. I called them about three weeks ago for some soil for my new garden, and Sean answered all my questions (how much do I need/what exactly is organic topsoil/etc) and penciled me in for a delivery the next day. The driver who dropped it off (Wayne) was friendly as well and helped me decide where to dump the soil. Three weeks later I have a thriving garden and I'm ready to call them again for mulch!Thanks Grillo Services!

Many thanks to Mike Grillo for donating 8 cubic yards of garden soil at the beginning of the summer that enabled Bridgeport Mutual Aid to set up 40 raised beds for Bridgeport families who, since the pandemic, are experiencing food insecurity, to grow their own vegetables!

I should have written this a long time ago, but better late than never as I was reminded to do so earlier...I contracted Sean Grillo to level our yard and put down topsoil, and then lost my job right before the day he was to arrive. He didn’t even think twice; he offered to do it for free, and asked that I just take care of his employee afterwards. I agreed and our lawn came out fantastic.
Sean and I became friends since and I always sing praises and recommend Grillo to friends and family. My only regret is not always having the budget to do more work with Sean and his crew.

My name is Joseph Ciccone and I would like say that the employees at Grillo Landscaping are helpful, courteous, and generous. As a Boy Scout, I asked for help with my Eagle Scout Project. They took me step by step in explain how to prepare the ground and to lay the mulch. Grillo donated landscaping plastic and mulch, and even delivered them to my worksite. Thank you so much for your generosity in helping me accomplish my goal.
