    Is my mulch purchase tax deductible?

     

     

     

    Yes, the portion of your purchase that is a net profit for us is tax deductible. We will send you a receipt for your files after the delivery weekend.

    Centreville High School

    6001 Union Mill Road

    Clifton, VA 20124.


    When is the order deadline?

     

    All orders must be received by Sunday, March 18, 2012.  Any orders received after that may not be filled.  If so, the order will be refunded.


    What zip codes do you deliver to?

    We only have the resources to deliver to zip codes: 20120, 20121, and 20124.


    When will the mulch be delivered?

    Deliveries will start late afternoon on Friday, March 23, 2012 and will be completed by Sunday afternoon, March 25, 2012.

    We cannot predict exactly when during the delivery weekend your mulch will arrive, nor can we accommodate special requests for a specific time. We use a system that routes deliveries to homes clustered together with a minimum number of bags left in the truck after each run.

    Please don't be alarmed if your neighbor receives mulch, but we don't stop at your home. We'll be back on another run!


    Where do you put the mulch when it is delivered?

    We will deliver the mulch, neatly stacked, in the location you designate at the time of ordering. The choices are (as you look at the front of your house):

    • Left side of driveway
    • Right side of driveway
    • Center of driveway

    We do our best to place the stacks along the edge of your driveway to avoid blocking garage entry, unless other instructions are provided.

     Feel free to use chalk to mark the desired loaction on your driveway or tape a sign for us on your garage door.

     Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we can not deliver mulch to the side or back of your home, nor can we spread the mulch for you.


    Will you spread the mulch in my yard?

    At this time we are unable to provide this service. The mulch bags will be neatly stacked on the side of the driveway that you designate when you place your mulch order.

    The CVHS touchdown Club is running a fundraiser to spread mulch. For information on this service, visit their website.

    What if I live outside of the delivery area?

    We are unable to make deliveries outside of the 20120, 20121, and 20124 zip codes.


    What type of mulch do you deliver?

    We deliver 3 cubic foot bags of premium, double-shredded, hardwood mulch. The mulch is a medium brown color and is the same type of high quality mulch that you would buy at a local nursery.


    Can I pay when the mulch is delivered?

    Payment must be made at the time of the order. We will not accept COD orders.


    Can I cancel my order?

    Yes, you may cancel your order and receive a refund until Monday, March 19, 2012.  After March 19, we will attempt to refund you; however, if the mulch can not be sold at "Same Day” sales, there will be no refund.
