_______________________________________

HOW MUCH MULCH DO I NEED?
Calculate how many cubic yards needed by using the following formula:
(L x W = sq.ft. x D(depth)=cu.ft.)
(cu.ft. ./. 27 = cubic yards)
Bulk Loads of mulch are measured in cubic yards.

*It takes 13.5 - 2 cu.ft. bags to = 1 cubic yard of mulch.
*It takes 9 - 3 cu.ft. bags to = 1 cubic yard of mulch.
*It takes 18 1.5 cu.ft. bags to = 1 cubic yard of mulch

BULK SEMI LOAD DELIVERIES

Bulk loads of mulch measure 80-120 cubic yards per semi-load depending on weight and trailer size. 

 We ask that the customer, or a representative be available to approve the load before unloading.

The formula to measure the load while on the truck in "cube" form is:

W x L x H ./. by 27 = cubic yards
