Default Mulch

I probably do, but I don't like to ask.

Soil World... is that the one next to WA Salvage? Or is that the one

next
to
the paving place? I thought it was Soils Aint Soils, but I could be

wrong.
Unfortunately my car doesn't have a tow ball, which is why I started
thinking about hiring a ute, but then i guess it would be cheaper to

have
it
delivered if I did that. I definitely wouldnt go for the veggie mix,

unless
I had a vegie garden built up with railway sleepers or similar.

Hi Wanda,

I always use Soil World in Malaga they have trailers onsite which are

free
to use with the mulch you buy. Similar pricing as well for the mulches

but
no trailer hire. Wear your daggies and ask for a trade discount, it

works
for me.

Trailer loads are 1 cubic metre. Which equates to 10 sq metres at 10

cm
depth. If you wet it down after mulching it shouldn't blow away that

much.
But if we have winds again like last night I won't make any promises.

Oh and just as a thought black mulch is that colour because it has

been
coloured that way. Not sure how they do it but suspect it is done with
colouring that brickies use to colour mortar. Have got the vegetable

soil
mix they have in the past only to watch it turn in to grey sand, as if

I
didn't have enough already!lol

Cheers

Richard

I stopped at a local soil/mulch place this afternoon to look at the

prices
of mulch. There were a couple of different types that I liked, one

called
Jungle Mulch & another called Black Mulch. There was a young guy

serving
who
didn't really know his stuff & my questions were responded to with

blank
looks. So... does anyone here know if either of these two blow away

with
a
bit of wind? Also, how much would a trailer load cover? Is anyone

here
in
Perth & can recommend a good place to buy mulch? The place I stopped

at
was
called Soils Aint Soils, the trailer load of mulch cost $39 with $30
delivery (!!). Maybe I should hire a ute...
