There are many different kinds of cedar tree species and they are found in many
places around the country. There are many common names for cedar products here
in the US like Eastern Aromatic, Northern White, Mountain, Coastal, Western Red
Cedar, and many others. They ALL vary in color, smell, texture and longevity.
From years of experience I have found that Western Red Cedar Mulch from as far
North as you can get (British Columbia) and West of the Rocky Mountain Range
produces the deepest reds/oranges in color and also the largest trees. As a result,
this product has more bark and heart wood which helps provide better
qualities and characteristics for many years of beauty to be enjoyed.
Other so called "Western Red Cedar" mills have to use younger and smaller trees
and these trees produce a very light color (almost yellowish/gold) mulch and it will
either turn gray in color very quickly or else it will turn a dark brown to black if
blended with other wood products like Douglas Fir or Pine commonly found and
produced at these mills. Our mill produces ONLY 100% WRC products so we
never have to worry about blending or contamination from foreign wood or mulches.
Many years of experience and many happy customers tell me which one is most
preferred! Ihler Sales & Distribution believes we have found the very BEST of all
Western Red Cedar Mulches and we are proud to offer it to you. Demand Quality!

Let me walk you through the process and mathematics of it. (See photo below)
First, a flat concrete area was cleared off of any debris.
Second, we used 2x4 lumber to make a box frame. The width of a 2x4 is 3.6 inches. We used this for our height.
Third, we made the two sides (for length x width) which measured out to be 10 feet wide by 49.5 feet in length. Our length
was going to be the variable by moving the end board either "in or out" to where ever the mulch would end after all mulch
was used from the bale. This would then be squared off making a perfect rectangle.
Fourth, we then opened one bale of mulch and began spreading it out. Entire area was then leveled off. Much like
screening concrete when working with cement on a driveway or patio- you want the final grade to be as level as possible.
Finally, ts time to multiply the numbers and determine yardage.
[For easier mathematics I am going to convert feet to inches.]
Length= 594 inches x Width= 120 inches x Height= 3.6 inches
Equals a total of 256,608 square inches
One cubic foot has 1,728 sq. inches (12" x 12" x 12")
One cubic yard has 27 cubic feet in it.
Final calculation: 256,608 / 1,728 = 148.5 cubic feet
148.5 / 27 = 5.5
Exactly 5.5 Cubic Yards Per Bale!

| How Did We Determine 5.5 cuyd per Bale? |
| Our bales are professionally packaged and will not fall apart on you. Our competitors can't say that. We also GUARANTEE 5.5 CYDS while their bales seem to fall short of volume when tested. You shouldn't have to pay for what you don't get! |
