Pine Bark fines - in bulk

fortyonenorth · May 3, 2011

I'm looking for a wholesale source for pine bark fines in the upper midwest—the closer to NW Indiana, the better. It's sometimes called shredded pine bark or pine bark soil conditioner. Home Depot carries the stuff, but I'm looking for roughly 80 cubic yards—that would be over 1000 bags. For some reason all the bulk suppliers in my immediate area only carry the really big pine bark pieces and/or shredded hardwood. I found a place near Indianapolis - probably 3-4 hours away that had a decent price ($18/yd.) but they quoted nearly $1000 for shipping a semi-load!

Any leads in Northern Indiana, Western Ohio, or Southern Michigan would be appreciated.
