[@mulchmate]

26k is our show price. Retail is 29k

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

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.

[@user-iu2yb7dd3d]

One safety issue I can see immediately. Guy has to stand in the bed and pull that tarp out with those rollers of death spinning. A way to disengage those when pulling out the tarp would definitely be a must

[@mulchmate]

We have addressed that very issue. Thank you for looking out.

[@alarmingtwitch7822]

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?

[@mulchmate]

@@alarmingtwitch7822 it's a mechanical release that disengages automatically when you reverse the system.

[@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.

[@rk7567]

Wow. Well my dreams have been crushed. Ive been working on this exact product for the last 3 months and these guys beat me to it. Im gonna reach out to them. Ive got some impovements for then.

[@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.

[@AdamEarl2]

That’s just a smaller forage wagon- very common in farming. Used to haul chopped hay/corn to the silo and the augers unload it

[@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.

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.

[@pcatful]

They've put this on a trailer which makes sense, because the truck isn't tied up. And now they've developed bin setups to distribute with ride-on mowers. Good ideas!

[@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. 🤔

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.

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

[@iambigfoot8640]

This thing is pretty point when you think about it. Say someone is wanting a load of dump in there drive why the company not has to have a separate truck just for that. I see this a great way to just waste a dump truck there is not point in putting this on your truck. You can very easily move way more mulch by dumping it in a pile and then bring actually care with a tractor and dumping it in placing that you.

[@jleroy74]

the machine swings out so you can still dump the bed..

Check out Applied Landscapes in Northern California. If you think this is fast... haha you have no idea. They basically shoot the mulch out of a giant hose. Its pretty crazy.

[@JoeBlow-24]

Yeah It's not totally clear to me what void this is trying to fill, companies that put down hundreds of yards have mulch blowers. Is this for spot delivery? Companies near me will deliver it for free after 4 yards. Guess this is just so a guy doesn't have to shovel it into a barrow?

[@gradywray5391]

Joe Blow yea the one thing that’s nice is the ability with the rock but I bet those tarps are not gonna last very long if you’re moving any amount rock.

[@markgutekunstdc2516]

One trick pony, blowers that is. Are blowers gonna handle rock, sand, clay, etc? Nope. This machine appears more versitile.

[@adamotto2977]

Joe Blow Consider this though: you could use it as a means of loading the blower without shoveling or using a skidsteer if an additional power conveyer was placed under the discharge. That could make the blowers even more efficient and allow companies to lessen the manpower needed even more

[@sorrym8421]

The thing with this machine is that it can handle allot more than just mulch. Companies who also handle rocks, gravel, and other heavy duty materials could by a mulch blower and this and still be very efficient.

[@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👍

If your gonna spend money on that just save up a little more and get FINNs smallest mulch blower I believe it's the bb302 or something. I prefer our bb05. Sure its technically slower at 20yards a hour but its delivers and spreads the mulch instead of unloading it then raking it.

[@kevinbrocklehurst8436]
