Troop 1130 Mulch Sale / Fund Raiser Frequently Asked Questions

What Type of Mulch Do You Deliver? 

Top quality shredded hardwood bark mulch in big 3 cubic-foot bags delivered FREE to you. The mulch is a medium brown color, and is a very high quality with weed resistance properties. 

Where do you put the mulch? 

We deliver the mulch per your instructions and neatly stack them in a location of your choice on your driveway or in front of your house.   If you like to distrubute the mulch into multiple locations around your house please indicate that with your order. If there are no instructions, typically, we'll ring the door bell to check with you, and/or place the stacks along the edge of your driveway. 

When will I receive my mulch? 

Delivery starts Friday evening (for large amounts of mulch) and continues through  the delivery weekend.  Generally it is hard to predict exactly when your mulch will arrive.  We use a system that loads trucks with deliveries to homes in close proximity until the truck is empty for another run. In some cases we may do a partial delivery, and come back on the next run with the remainder of your order. Please do not be alarmed if your neighbors receive their mulch but we don't stop at your home - we'll be back on another run. 

What does Troop 1130 do with the proceeds? 

Our annual mulch sale is the only Troop level fundraiser run by our Troop and constitute the only source of funds to operate the Troop for the following year. Proceeds go towards boys attending a week long summer camp (Rodney), camping permits, replacement and refurbishment of the Troop gear. This way boys focus on scouting as opposed to fund raising all year long.

I want to support the Troop but I don't need mulch...
