White Cap aka HD SUPPLY has em, and delivers. Probably not the cheapest price though... $25 a piece.

Site One Landscape Supplies in Oxnard had a lot that they were looking to offload. It's been a couple months though.

Do you want great service and delivery or price? I just took delivery of a truck load of straw wattle last week from Reno Hardware. Called and ordered in the afternoon and was delivered the next day.

City requires them on many permitted jobs. I have had inspectors walk away if our BMP's aren't up yet. Wattles, wash out, dirt piles covers, trash covered..even if it is a trailer. I'm like.... dude! It's summer! There ain't no rain coming! Too bad. Get em set up and call me back.....

Prevents dirt from going down hill during a rain storm.
Yea, install them all the time. I'm wondering what the rice/straw mixture is for vs just straw?
Maybe that's what they've always been made of and I didn't realize the composition was rice and straw.

I just started a big grading job in Malibu and I come to find out that the cities plastic bag ban is not just for shopping bags. The ban includes the white plastic sand bags we have used for the last decade or so. Instead of buying filled plastic bags for less than a dollar each, I had to buy Burlap bags at almost 4 dollars each. Totally retarded libtard bullshit. The city grading inspector told me we should start a Hemp sand bag business and we would make a fortune!!

The rice swells up when it gets wet and seals up the gaps in the straw.

My biggest customer is a wholesaler. I see rolls of this shit on flatbeds everyday. I can get you my price in the morning. You need it delivered? Where?

And watch the Waddle you get some has an synthetic mesh around it in an true liberal area this is not allowed as small creatures can get stuck in it and you need the Waddle with twine on the outside which rots in a few weeks

It’s basically a burlap wrap that makes it take longer to degrade compared to the “photo” degradable which is what the standard netting is

Will need it delivered to Indian Wells. PM me your number, and either myself or my Super will get ahold of you.

Thanks
