Aged Forest Mulch, Delivered by the Truckload Across Brisbane’s South-West, Logan and Ipswich

This is the mulch that comes off our own tree jobs. Every gum, fig, jacaranda and camphor laurel our crews take down in Brisbane, Logan and Ipswich goes through the chipper, and the chip is stockpiled and aged for months before it goes anywhere near your garden. By the time it lands on your driveway it is dark, fine, settled and ready to spread. No bags, no bark-chip markup, no trip to a landscape yard with a trailer.

Pick your load size (10m³, 20m³ or 40m³) and your delivery zone above, and the price shows before you pay. Or ring the office on 1300 239 626 or 0493 787 510 and we will book the truck for you.

Why aged forest mulch beats fresh chip and bagged mulch

Fresh wood chip is still breaking down when you spread it, and while it does that it borrows nitrogen from your soil. Plants notice. Aged forest mulch has already done that work in the stockpile, so it goes straight to the jobs you actually want mulch to do.

Holds water

A 75mm layer slows evaporation right down, which matters in a Forest Lake or Springfield yard in January when the gums are dropping limbs from heat stress and your beds are cooking.

Smothers weeds

Light cannot get through it. What does come up pulls out easily.

Feeds the soil

It keeps breaking down slowly into the bed, and the worms move in underneath it.

Looks finished

Finer texture and a deep brown colour, not the pale, chunky look of fresh chip.

Cheaper than anything in a bag

A 10m³ load covers the same ground as roughly 200 of the 50-litre bags at the hardware store, and you are not lugging them.

How much mulch do I need?

Use the calculator above: length × width in metres, pick your depth, and it gives you cubic metres. As a rough guide:

Load At 50mm (top-up) At 75mm (standard) At 100mm (new beds, weed control)
10m³ about 200 m² about 130 m² about 100 m²
20m³ about 400 m² about 265 m² about 200 m²
40m³ (two truckloads) about 800 m² about 530 m² about 400 m²

Most suburban blocks in Greenbank, Park Ridge or Browns Plains with a couple of big beds and a hedge line take a 10m³ load. Acreage in New Beith, Munruben or Jimboomba, or a body corporate common area, is usually a 20m³ job. Big acreage, a long driveway’s worth of beds or a whole estate top-up is the 40m³ option, which comes as two truckloads. If you are between sizes, go bigger. Mulch does not go off, and a spare pile in the corner is handy all year.

Delivery day: what to expect

We deliver in a tipper truck, not a ute, so we need a spot the truck can get to and tip on. Before you order, have a look at your drop point for:

1No overhead lines

The tipper body goes up. We will not tip under power or service lines.

2A flat, firm spot

A driveway, a hardstand, a paddock gateway. Steep driveways and soft lawn are a no.

3Your land, not council’s

We cannot tip on nature strips, footpaths or road verges.

If the driver gets there and cannot tip safely, we refund the mulch but the delivery fee still applies, including the Zone A fee. A thirty-second look at the drop point before you order saves everyone a wasted trip. Mulch is delivery only. Our Ellen Grove depot is a working yard with trucks, chippers and excavators moving all day, so it is not open to the public and we do not do pickups.

Spreading tips from the crew

  • Pull the weeds first and water the bed. Mulch on dry soil keeps the next rain out as well as in.
  • Spread 50 to 75mm. Deeper than 100mm and you start suffocating roots.
  • Keep it a hand’s width off tree trunks and plant stems. A mulch volcano against a trunk rots the bark.
  • Keep it clear of the house slab and timber. Termites live in Queensland soil anyway, and you do not want to build them a bridge.
  • Top up once a year. It keeps breaking down, which is the whole point.

Frequently asked questions

Can I pick the mulch up myself?

No. We are delivery only. The depot is a working tree yard and is not open to the public, so there are no pickups and no walk-ins. Pick your load and zone above and we bring it to you.

Is this mulch allowed to move around the fire ant zone?

Most of Brisbane’s south-west, Logan and Ipswich sits inside the fire ant biosecurity zone, and there are rules about where mulch can go and how quickly it has to be used. We move our mulch in line with those rules. Have a look at the movement controls guide if you want the detail, and spread your load within a day of it arriving.

Will mulch bring termites?

Termites are already in Queensland soil. Mulch does not create them, but a deep pile hard up against the slab or a timber deck gives them cover. Keep it a hand’s width off the house and timber and you are fine.

What is actually in it?

Chipped trees from our own removal and pruning jobs: mostly gum, with fig, jacaranda, camphor laurel and whatever else came down that month. No treated timber, no building waste. It is aged in the stockpile before it is sold.

How thick should I spread it?

50mm for a top-up on existing beds, 75mm for most jobs, 100mm for new beds where weeds are the problem. Deeper is not better.

How quickly can you deliver?

Usually within a few days of ordering, depending on where the trucks are that week. Ring the office if you need a particular day.

Ready to order?

Scroll up, pick your load size and zone, and add it to the cart. Need more than 40m³? See commercial bulk mulch. Want a finer, cheaper mulch that feeds garden beds faster? See our double-grind palm mulch, from $300 for 10m³. If the mulch is coming off trees you want gone, our tree removal and wood chipping crews can do both in one visit.
