I agree. I think this one is sharp.
But, will you be hauling enough mulch that the first gap could be a probelm?

I've thought about that. If it is I could put pieces of plywood between the first and second boards. But the only time I haul mulch is for my house. And I only need 1 yard of mulch. The bed is not a dump bed.

When I go to the recycling center I see people with little utility trailers and some with a couple of five gallon buckets they load into their brand new Escalades and I wonder what they are covering, can't be much. Last year I was loading the trailer by myself with a feed shovel and a fit looking college age guy backed in with his 4'x4' utility trailer and threw a few shovels full of mulch. He asked me if I was going to fill the entire trailer by myself and I told him I was filling #3 for the day. He must have been amazed that an old coot would be able to fill one trailer, little alone three. It was also about 85° at the time.

My wife no longer likes mulch. So we are cutting back on where we put mulch. I call her an anti-mulchite.

When I get home I'll post a pic of my former mulch hauler with a dump bed.

We have a lot of trees to around and around our house. I think I have a pretty good base so now I just have to get a trailer load to give it a fresh look. This year I didn't have time to get any and for other reasons.

Here is my former Mulch Hauler, my 1970 F350 flatbed dump. I hauled 5 ton of broken up concrete sidewalk one day. Here I hauled 4 yards of mulch for this job at the Piper Mausoleum at a local cemetery.
