Why we think this product is sustainable
Bi-product of tree-surgery.
Reduce
Long lasting natural material that is reused in the garden.
Recycle
Product is biodegradable
We also like landscaping bark chippings as covering for walkways in natural areas that benefit from paths that blend in to the surroundings rather than draw the eye.
As this is on the cheaper end of the scale price wise it's also good as budget animal bedding in chicken runs and the like.
We can supply you with 3 sizes of bulk bag:
- Jumbo Bulk Bag which contains approx 1000ltrs (one cubic metre)
- Standard Bulk Bag contains about 750ltrs (same as most builders merchants)
- Half Bulk Bag contains approx 500ltrs
Please note that due to the bark being a natural product we are unable to guarantee colour, shape and particle size.
For Bark, Mulch and Compost, plan a minimum depth of 50mm (2 inches).
Multiple the length by the width in meters, then multiply it by 0.05.
For example, a border is 5 meters by 4 meters:
5 x 4 x 0.05 = 1.0 cubic meters.
Plan to use one bulk bag.

Delivery Process
If you live in or near Chester, delivery will take place via HGV crane truck. These trucks can weigh up to 32 tonnes so will not be able to drive onto your property. If you instruct the driver to do so we are not liable for any damages caused in doing so. The truck will be parked on the public highway and the crane will offload the bulk bags or pallets onto your property if possible (the driver will let you know). Please ensure that the driver can gain access to where the items will be dropped. If there are over hanging wires or trees on your property the crane can not be used and the goods will be left in a roadside location.
For other addresses, bulk bags are delivered using PalletForce and will be kerbside deliveries to tarmac/hard surfaces only. We cannot deliver on gravel or grass because the hand operated pallet truck will have insufficient traction and may sink or become stuck. If you instruct the driver to leave the pallet on your property, we will not be liable for any damages caused in doing so.
UK Delivery Times
We offer a standard UK delivery time of 3-5 working days on all our products but this may vary with demand.
Regrettably, orders cannot be dispatched on either Saturday or Sunday.
Delivery times cannot be guaranteed in case of adverse weather conditions.
