3 Reasons To Hire A Dump Truck Service To Bring A Truckload Of Mulch

1 January 2016 by Jared Perez

Adding mulch to your property can be beneficial for so many reasons. It's great for adding color and appeal to your landscaping, and it's great for keeping plants healthy and preventing weeds. To take advantage of these perks, you might be thinking about buying mulch from a local garden center or a home improvement store, where you might have found bags of mulch for a seemingly good price. An even better option is to hire a company that offers dump truck services and to have a local supplier bring you a dump truck load full of mulch. These are three of the main reasons why you might find this to be a good choice.

1. Save Money on Your Mulch

Bagged mulch might seem like a good deal -- especially when it's being advertised at a sale price -- but you might be surprised by how little you can get out of those bags. In the long run, you're going to get a lot more mulch for your money if you buy it by the dump truck load. Even if you don't think that you'll need that much, you can get the mulch that you need at a discounted rate by going in with a neighbor or two on the dump truck load.

2. Lessen the Aggravation for Yourself

Going to the store, buying a bunch of bags of mulch and loading them all into your vehicle can be a pain. If you have a smaller vehicle, you may even have to rent or borrow another one or make multiple trips. Then, as you are spreading your mulch, you have to worry about opening multiple bags. A far easier option for you is to have it dumped by a dump truck at your home so that you can simply focus on the fun part -- landscaping with it.

3. Make Sure That You Have Plenty

You will probably need more mulch than you think once you see how good it looks and how little comes in those bags that you buy from a garden center. If you get a dump truck load, however, you are sure to have plenty for any project that you plan to tackle -- even if you miscalculated how much you needed or if you decide at the last minute to add in a new flowerbed or two.

As you can see, hiring a dump truck service to bring your mulch can be a smart choice. Luckily, you should be able to have it done for a surprisingly cheap price. If this sounds like the right option to you, contact Skippers Trucking or another truck company to see if they can bring you the mulch you need.
