Hey Everyone, I am preparing a bid for a commercial account. I went over there and took all of my measurements. I got everything I need but I some advice on what to charge for mulch. I am estimating that I am going to need 113 yards of mulch, 50yrds of a high quality shredded bark mulch and 63 yards of lower quality ground cover mulch. Now, I usually get $65 per yard to spread mulch, that includes delivery and the cost. Do you think I should give them a break on the mulching. I came up with $7030 to mulch 113 yards. I gave them some break on the lower quality mulch since it does not cost me as much as the good stuff. You think thats to high? I think it might alittle high. I have never spread 113 yards of mulch before and would like some input. I am going to have a small front end loader there to load the truck with. I am also going to have the pile dumped in the parking lot to cut down on drive time. The beds are accessed easily with the truck, I can pretty much back right to them. Thanks for the help! -MIKE-
