26k is our show price. Retail is 29k

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Mulch Mate Thanks for the response! That’s much more reasonable then I thought. I did a Google search and must be looking at a different unit or the blower.

[@mulchmate]

@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL no problem. I think yi our right. The blowers are 60k to 150k plus.

[@fixt100]

one of these and the truck to use it on as well? and prob still up 10k lols

[@dirtypocketsct]

I have something designed for the little guy but still working on fabricating the prototype. I took 2-3 pieces of different equipment and put them together. Something to scoop, dump, spread, roll, and grade. I could see it mass produced in the $3500-$5000 range. Like a mini it wouldnt do any one task great but would be able to do multiple task and affordable. It couldnt compete with this on volume but you wouldnt have to push a wheelbarrow.

They should have a sling out treadmill type apparatus. That is stored under the back end.....then swings around to the passenger side. Plug it in then you have an extra , what 6 feet or more. If your not about to get it where you want it a remote on the end that's an easy 6ft or so your guys don't have to walk or if what what ever reason you want it to go over a retaining wall or something.

[@JFabric500]

There’s a ton of convertable conveyor belts that could easily give you another 12-20ft to land mulch exactly where you need it.

[@2009rummell]

There is a company around Louisville Ohio called envroscapes. They have made a machine called a mulch mule for blowing mulch. Pretty badass system

[@johntekuiti]

The is so amazing. Would love to get one in New Zealand.

[@oby-1607]

Pretty amazing. Some people will bitch about paying $60K but it is a commercial unit. Funny how they won't bitch about paying that for a pickup with a few options. If I was in the business of moving mulch or landscaping, I would buy one. The big guy is an excellent salesman.

[@Gixzer04]

Anyone see the trucks that blow the mulch onto beds ? This is slick however the blowing is def labor saving n effective. Great video.

[@bobbybrown614]

I think there are smaller options out there that probably make more sense for most people. But I bet big companies would love this. And it seems amazingly well built. I wonder if they will make a smaller one for 1500/2500 trucks. Harbor freight makes some sort of tarp loading system that I have seen mixed reviews on plus its a hand crank lol.

[@mulchmate]

stay tuned

[@tonyschuster3140]

I was completely blown away and I LOVE this thing... However, we would only use it for residential mulch jobs and it looks like it will be a little pricey to replace one guy with one $30 pitch fork. Besides, we can back the truck up a driveway, drop whichever side/gate and have access to 15 yards from all 3 sides of the truck, not just the one corner. On our tight space residential jobs that requires precise wheelbarrows, access and precision is more important than volume and the bottleneck is rarely at the truck for us. This is truly an awesome product though and I love it for rock/dirt/other stuff so I hope they sell a ton of these.

[@mulchmate]

Thank you for the kind words. We did a 10 yard test with one of the biggest landscape companies in the world and said the same things you said unit they saw it. It spend their entire crew up by 70% they said and they used 30% less mulch. They were very happy.

[@smcox1991]

Who cares if you only have access to one corner. That one corner shoots the material right into your wheelbarrow there's no need for multiple access points.

[@ronhughley6510]

Be nice if they made like a mini version like a DS500. As this looks like it says DS1000. Something that could go on smaller trucks. Also I dont see how the lil canvas flap can hold in the material, I didnt see how he attached it. 🤔

[@mulchmate]

Truck Mate check it out on our website www.mulchmateusa.com

[@Prorex1911]

He should weld on fork slots under the back rear section for easy removal when needed. That way it won’t slide off the forks, and easier to slide forks under it when you put it back on.

[@mulchmate]

Thanks for the input, Chris. The bottom of the machine is totally flat and the ladder in the center is what keeps it from sliding side to side. Nick

[@Prorex1911]

I see. I was thinking more of on an incline or hitting a bump and it comes off balance or or top heavy. But that thing is awesome! Great job!

[@AlarmingTwitch]

Mulch Mate thank you for your reply. That's amazing to hear that it's even better than demonstrated here. Was that a feature on this prototype? Does it automatically disengage when reversing the tarp in the production model?

Could I go to their website yes but I was looking for the information here as that is where I find it. Nice show but it's needing more attention here.

I use to work for a City that we did about 2000 yds of mulch every spring. I wish we had one of those. I might not have screwed up my back so bad already.

[@mikekopisz1227]

Considering,the amount of time it would take to use a lil 453 or S70 to spread this(closest comparison I can make as far as capacity on unit vs wheel barrow)...I'd say this is pretty quick...but,then it also boils down to employee costs,vs equipment costs...or what kind of time frame is allotted to complete the job(if it's not under a tight time frame,then goin with a skid and one other employee to spread...If it is an under the gun project,it sometimes is more cost effective for the cost of the extra employees,to get it done and on to the next gig)....Lots of variables and pros and cons in this situation,but definitely a cool unit..not sure about the price tag,but it'd be great for tree guys,if they chip into the bed with a chipper and have the capability of fluffing, separating and spreading all in one shot.. pretty cool stuff man...great vid as always👍

Question... Will a 350/3500 series truck handle this unit when it is loaded or is a 450/4500 or larger series truck needed?

It will fit as long as the bed is correct. The only thing that you may need to do is not fill you truck with too much mulch. You should stay within dot specs

Im currently in the market for a new setup and curious if this might be an option for my business.
