FAQ

What does "per load" mean on my delivery quote?

A "load" is one dump-truck trip — and the delivery fee is charged per load, not per yard. One truck carries up to 10 cubic yards of mulch or up to 6 cubic yards of stone, gravel, sand, or soil, so 2 yards of loam and 6 yards of loam cost exactly the same to deliver.

How the quote adds up

  • $100 per load within 30 driving miles of our Dispatch Office in Dorchester
  • $4 per mile, per load beyond 30 miles
  • Separate materials = separate loads — mulch and stone never share a truck
  • Over the cap = a second load, with its own fee

Checkout runs the numbers automatically from your ZIP. The delivery page covers the full model, and the material calculator helps you stay inside one load.
