So the ~$40 more I spent means I don't have to deal with ruts.

Just pulled out some bamboo roots that were invading my yard from my neighbor. Hard as hell to remove.

So you're right, my math was wrong, the difference was ~$11 give-or-take a couple of shovel fulls. As for delivery, I didn't even look into it. When I woke up I wasn't sure what I was going to do, mulching is what I decided to do. So scheduling a delivery wasn't in the cards, who knows when they would have gotten 9 yds to us... Plus, I didn't have any idea I needed 9 yards, but I did... Oh, and I forgot, since I have done "bulk" pick-up before, I would needed to take the tonneau off to do the bulk pick-up deal, that process SUCKS, so add that to the list of reasons to not go that form of "bulk" route. And I'll add this, it's my opinion that, because the bags seem to be compressed, the effective volume of bags seem to give you more than the bucket-full route. I'm sure the bulk boys would disagree, throw some science at me, throw-in some bullshit, but I'm just saying what my observation is.

I live on a farm, and have around 7-8 acres of buffalo grass I need to dry fertilize in mid-late June.
Any suggestions on a tow-behind spreader? Thanks guys. |

Yes Your math is ****ed up..
![]() ![]() ![]() Buying bulk mulch is not much cheaper but hardwood mulch is a far superior product, and costs more, so much so that home depot does not carry it in all stores. 1 cy = 27 cf 8.88 cy = 240cf@ $29,99 a cubic yard delivered = $1.11cf x 240cf = $266 Home Depot $1.25 a CF or $2.50 a bag. $1.25 x 240cf = $300 Home Depot Hardwood mulch is $4.00 Cf or $480 vs $266//------------------------------------------ Quote:

https://www.metric-conversions.org/v...ubic-yards.htm I've done this more than a few times, and I know how much two one-yard buckets fills the truck, and how much each 30-bag trip to Home Deport filled it. The difference was nominal. That being said, 30 bags of bagged mulch seems to go a lot farther that a "2-yard" load of mulch that's dumped into the truck. But hey, that's just my observation. But feel free have them deliver your mulch to Chateau de Barrett and have them dump it next to/on the Bentley, I'll allow it... As for the hardwood, yes that's true, but it's spendy as hell.

I have a small spreader you can mount on a receiver hitch if you want to borrow it. I used it on our gator last night.

So as I was saying you bought shit cypress mulch when you could have had the "spendy" hardwood Playground approved mulch delivered for less money.. I used pricing from Suburban Lawn and Garden who with over 50 years in business deliver only quality products.
Just lay a worn out tarp next to your ugly truck..
Spoiler!
and wheel barrel or dump cart it to your bedding areas. instead of loading and unloading it. Calling me P. Allen Smith explains a lot about why you ended up with shit for the price of the good stuff. You must have been torn between yardwork or watching his show and the following new episode of Antique Roadshow ![]() ![]() With a contractor account, the price goes down 20-25 % on top of their everyday low prices.

Dude, read your own post. You have to load the wheel barrel with a shovel and then unload it. It's more than twice the ****ing work! The bags are much easier. |
