What is Mulch Blowing?

Mulch Blowing is an efficient and quick way of installing large amounts of mulch to a wide variety of property types throughout Louisiana. A professional mulch installation company with a specialized mulch blower truck has a very long hose that can reach to the precise areas mulch is needed. The blower truck can remain on the street, driveway, or parking lot while technicians walk the property on foot, installing mulch with great precision. This system can be used to quickly and efficiently spread all types of mulch, including playground mulch, mulch chips, and shredded bark.

The Process

Rather than mulch arriving by truckloads of loose material and then wheelbarrowed to the designated area, which would be tiresome and inefficient, the mulch blower truck is parked on the street, driveway, or parking lot. Mulch feeds into a long 300-foot-long hose with paddles. As the mulch reaches the hose, high velocity air forces it through the hose. The technician has controls to change the flow of the mulch while directing it where it needs to go. No mess on the street nor in your yard.

A blower truck and a team of two technicians are capable of mulching a large area in just a few hours. While one person spreads an average of one yard of mulch each hour, two technicians can blow in 60 yards of mulch within hours. If you have a hillside to cover, your mulch technician will walk around with the hose tip and carefully and evenly spread the mulch between trees, shrubs and bushes. You won’t need to worry about the hose being dragged across flower beds either.

Tire Marks in your lawn?

Because of the use of the hose, tire marks or wheelbarrow tracks in your lawn will never need to be a concern. The flexibility of the blower hose eliminates these concerns.

Mulch around your flower beds.

You’ve invested a lot of time and money into choosing and placing the plants in your landscape. The last thing you want is a mulching crew trampling your delicate plants. Blowing mulch, despite the high velocity application, does not damage your plants because the technicians will take care to avoid blowing mulch directly on your plants. Your mulch blower technician is a practiced installer and is able to protect your flower beds while blowing in mulch. He or she is able to control the intensity of the blower so as not to damage your prized blossoms. He or she will make sure that the mulch kisses the edges of your plants by gently using a rake in between if necessary.

How far can the hose reach?

Blower hoses can reach over 300 feet from where the truck is parked. Large backlots for buildings, courtyards for hospitals, and your own enormous back yards will be no problem for our technicians.

Mulch blowers make installing mulch the easiest, cleanest and most efficient way of installing mulch with out damaging your property. Once the mulch is blown, the job is done and you can sit back and enjoy the results.
