NATIONAL MULCH & SEED

THEY GAVE ME A FREE ON-SITE ESTIMATE. THEY CAME WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD. THEY DELIVERED AND DISTRIBUTED 10.5 CUBIC YARDS (EQUIVALENT TO 95, 3 CUBIC FOOT BAGS) OF MULCH OVER 12 DIFFERENT PLANTING BEDS IN ABOUT ONE AND A QUARTER HOURS, INCLUDING THE CLEAN-UP AFTERWARD! THEY HAVE A REALLY COOL TRUCK THAT LETS THEM BLOW THE MULCH THROUGH A LONG HOSE RIGHT WHERE YOU WANT IT, THEN THEY CLEAN UP ANY OVERSPRAY WITH A GAS-POWERED LEAF BLOWER. THEY WERE VERY CAREFUL AROUND MY PLANTS AND CLEANED OFF EACH ONE BY HAND AFTER THEY WERE DONE. THEY DID THE JOB FOR ABOUT $265 MORE THAN ANOTHER COMPANY WOULD HAVE CHARGED ME TO JUST DUMP IT IN A PILE ON MY DRIVEWAY. THAT WORKS OUT TO ABOUT $2.85 PER BAG, EQUIVALENT (SAY $6 PER WHEELBARROW FULL) FOR INSTALLATION. CONSIDERING HOW MANY HOURS IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN ME TO LOAD, PLACE, DUMP, AND SPREAD 45 WHEELBARROW LOADS (AND OVER HOW MANY DAYS), AND THE FACT THAT THEY GOT IT DONE SO FAST, MAKES THEIR PRICE SEEM VERY REASONABLE.
