"Super Sac/Big Big" Equivalent in 9 easy to handle 3 c.f. bags = approx 30 pounds per bag

We sell only in bagged format but in the case of mulch it can be actually less expensive than loose and it’s always 100% real cedar. See the chart at the bottom for the many benefits of bagged versus loose.

 

Virtually any small car can carry 1 Cubic Yard (Super Sac Volume) and family vans can carry up to 4 cubic yards so delivery by us is not needed. The bags are clean and dry allowing them to be easily handled by most people. Dry cedar mulch weighs about 10 pounds per cubic foot, this compares to wet loose mulch that can weigh more than twice that and leach colour.

Save Labour

3 cubic foot bags are easy to carry. Shoveling and clean-up is eliminated. Real cedar controls weeds and insects better than any other wood product and without toxic chemicals. We keep our mulch dry and fresh which greatly reduces the weight that has to be lifted by you or your helper. Dry mulch is also much easier and faster to spread.

 

Save Material

Left over mulch is easily returned or cleanly stored for later use. Real cedar mulch will never go moldy, grow fungus, attract bugs like non-cedar mulch.

 

Real Cedar

Most bulk mulch is made from chewed up old contaminated decomposed factory skids. Skids are made from the cheapest wood available; none are ever made from cedar. All of our mulch is made from the excess trimmings of virgin premium grade cedar lumber. Only cedar resists decomposing and insects while controlling weeds. Professionally coloured - Our mulches are naturally coloured with non-toxic vegtable die, all done inside a dry facility using permanent equipment that ensures consistency.

Most bulk mulches are done on site in the open weather using lesser quality equipment and even toxic oil based dyes.

 

Non Toxic

Our natural colouring is made from non-toxic vegetable products. Safe for contact with children and pets. Most  mulches are not dyed with natural colouring but rather oil based chemicals.
