12 cubic yards? You are full of ****. A full sized pickup truck bed
might hold two cubic yards of mulch if you can tie a tarp over it. That
would be six full pickup loads. If you buy the mulch in the typical two
cubic foot bags Home Depot sells, 12 cubic yards would amount to about
165-170 bags. I buy the equivalent of 100 bags a year to recover our
planting beds. Unless you are covering your entire lot, leaving no room
for grass, you aren't spreading 12 cubic yards or anything close to it.

When we did mulch in the (community assn) park we brought in an 18
wheeler with the "pooper" that just pushes the mulch out the back of a
40 foot trailer. It was around 100 yards. It disappeared faster than
you would think. We did 2 play areas and mulched around the trees.

If Harry wasn't so full of ****, he would knowbetter that John
isn't full of ****. But Harry's "100 bags" seems a lot to top
dress the little bit of landscaping he has?

He probably mulches clear down to the creek where the owls reside.
