Stop Pushing Wheelbarrows
A better way to run spring mulch installs
If you already run a Toro GrandStand MULTI FORCE, you can attach the Mulch Force Bucket and haul mulch with the machine instead of your crew’s backs. It carries 10.7 cubic feet and up to 250 pounds per trip, moved by one operator at mower speed.
Spring mulch is some of the best work a landscaping company takes on. It is also the work that flattens a crew fastest.
Four people, shovels and wheelbarrows across a big property is a long day. The first loads go quickly and the last ones do not, and by mid-afternoon the pace has quietly halved. The good news is that most crews already own the machine that fixes this.
Use the Machine You Already Have
The Mulch Force Bucket is an attachment for the GrandStand MULTI FORCE system. Rather than buying a separate material handler, the stand-on mower on your trailer becomes the thing that moves the mulch.
One operator loads the hopper, drives it to the bed at mower speed rather than walking pace, and places it. Your other crew members stay on the part of the job that actually needs hands — edging, spreading and finishing.
What Changes on an Install Day
Your crew still has energy at three o’clock
Pushing loaded wheelbarrows all morning is what makes the afternoon slow. Take that out and the pace holds through the day.
Fewer people tied up hauling
Hauling is necessary but it is not skilled work. Moving it onto the machine frees your experienced people for the work clients actually see.
Less wear on your people
Backs and shoulders are the things that end landscaping careers. Anything that reduces repetitive heavy lifting is worth taking seriously, and your crew will notice you did.
You can quote bigger jobs
Properties that felt like too much manual handling become properties you can realistically bid.

Why Timing Matters in Michigan
Mulch season here is short and it collides with everything else. Beds want doing in the same few weeks that spring growth has your mowing route at its heaviest — late April into May, when cool-season grasses are growing fastest.
That is precisely when you cannot afford to have four people walking wheelbarrows for a day. Getting installs done faster is not just about the mulch job; it protects the mowing schedule sitting behind it.
The Mulch Force Bucket needs the low-flow hydraulic option on your MULTI FORCE. If you are not sure how your machine is configured, send us the model and serial number and we will check it for you before you order anything.
Common Questions
How much mulch does the Mulch Force Bucket carry?
The hopper holds 10.7 cubic feet with a capacity of 250 pounds per load, moved by a single operator at mower speed rather than walking pace.
What machine does it fit?
It is designed for the Toro GrandStand MULTI FORCE system and requires the low-flow hydraulic option. We can confirm whether your existing machine is compatible.
Do I need to buy a separate material handler?
Not if you already run a MULTI FORCE. That is the point of the attachment system — the mower you own becomes the machine that moves material.
How much labour does it actually save?
It varies by property, but the biggest gain is usually not the first hour — it is the last one. Crews that are not exhausted from hauling maintain their pace through the afternoon.
Can it be used for anything besides mulch?
Yes, it handles other loose material such as soil and gravel within the same weight capacity, which makes it useful well beyond spring.
Does Outdoor Equipment Co offer financing?
Yes, including on attachment packages. Call (866) 688-7847 or use the form below and we will put options together for you.
