Default Problem with commercial compost

I use a lot of compost every year, 4-5 large bags. the last 2 years of

Is there a commonly available make that is not usually compressed, of
have you some easy way to loosen it? TIA


It is shipped stacked on pallets as tight as they can make it.

Provided you don't mind the mess drop the bag on its end from about two
feet up and the shock will break the stuff up pretty well.
