I sell dump truck loads of composted tree trimmings 2-3-4 years old for
about 200.00 which is about 7 yards of good quality mulch. As far as
mulch
goes.

So proud of yourself ripping people off by the yard. I can get free
dumptruck loads for free at my local recycle center. Bring the dumper
and they'll even fill it for you.

You think 450 dollars is a good price for a small tree removal? Wow,
maybe I should buy a chainsaw and hire some monkeys.

That is about $28.57 a yard. It's either a great deal, or an OK deal
depending on things like whether it includes delivery (that makes it a
really good deal) and the availability of compost and the local market.
Where I live, that is a not a bad deal, I would pay that much for a yard
of composted tree trimmings. How many of use live near recycle centers
that give it away for free? I don't, and never have.


Sure, any future questions you can address them to
and I will be glad to help you. If I do not
have the answer I will hook you up with Tree Biologist in the research field
of the US FOREST SERVICE. Real good people.

Some people will buy products they do not understand and not buy books that
