Not really. A coal shovel is too big. Six scoops with the standard shovel fills the kitchen garbage bag with 15# of mulch, which is enough to lift, but not so big as to burst the bag when I throw it down the hill.
umm... you really want a square shovel for that kind of material. smaller than a coal scoop shovel, but holds more than your pointy end shovel
p.s. square shovels are excellent for snow shoveling, especially when you have a lotta snow. mine is maybe 30 years old, or more, there is a hole worn out in the base, but is is great!
