How to Bid, Charge, Estimate and Install Mulch

What happens here

The speaker shows his truck filled with loose mulch, highlighting its cost-effectiveness compared to bagged mulch. He explains the importance of accurately estimating the amount of loose mulch needed, as it is difficult to return any excess. He emphasizes that buying in bulk significantly reduces material costs. The initial setup involves parking the transport vehicle (a pickup truck in this case) on the street, adjacent to the work area.

Goal: Secure the necessary quantity of loose mulch and position it for efficient transfer to the garden beds.

show you what I've opted to do in this case I opted to drive my pickup truck down down to the dealer and have them stick a scoop of mulch in the back of my truck now this isn't as easy to work with but this cost me $23.75 so $23 in mulch the extra $77 is going in my pocket and the difference is instead of being able to carry the mulch and bags out to the site I got to shovel it into a wheelbarrow wheelbarrow it up right to where I got to go and dump it off I no brainer it's going to take me probably just as long to do this as a carry bags of mulch and then then dispose of all the bags and everything else so let's get started on this job
