Shipping Policy
Shipping is expensive, and it gets more expensive almost every year. We are not going to pretend otherwise. What we can tell you is that we work hard to find the most reliable and affordable way to get your order to you, and we pass along free shipping wherever it makes sense.
Free shipping on any order with two or more items. The one exception is bulk items, meaning the large or heavy products that have to move by freight or oversized parcel. If your cart qualifies, free shipping is applied automatically at checkout.
Why two items and not a dollar amount?
Most stores set free shipping at a dollar threshold. That works when you sell light things like clothing. We don't. We ship soil, amendments, and heavy real goods that are expensive and awkward to move, so a dollar minimum doesn't reflect what shipping actually costs us.
We are a small business with no outside financial backing, and we are not Amazon. We manufacture, pack, and ship everything in house so we can control quality, which means real people picking, boxing, taping, and labeling every order, and that means real jobs. When we ship a single item for free, the only way to cover it is to raise prices across the board, and we would rather not do that. Asking for two or more items on free orders lets us keep prices lower for everyone and keep shipping sustainable. We hate high shipping costs as much as you do, and this is the fairest way we have found to keep them down.

Carriers
We ship with FedEx, UPS, and USPS, and we pick the carrier that gets your order to you reliably at the best cost. We cannot guarantee a specific carrier unless you arrange it with us ahead of time.
PO Boxes
Orders to PO Boxes often cost more and usually do not qualify for free shipping. Use a physical address to avoid delays and added fees.
Outside the Continental US
We ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the US Virgin Islands. Free shipping generally does not apply to large or bulky items going to these destinations, though Hawaii and Alaska have more flexibility depending on carrier policy. Rates are quoted at checkout or on request.
Canada
We ship select items to Canada. Canadian customers need to choose "UPS Standard Shipping to Canada" at checkout so your order clears customs cleanly and you avoid surprise brokerage fees. Orders placed with other methods can be delayed or rejected at the border.
Vendor-Fulfilled Items
Some products ship directly from our vendor partners and show their own estimated ship dates on the product page. Questions about these go to support@buildasoil.com.
Freight Shipments
Freight orders arrive on pallets by box truck or semi. We assume you need liftgate service unless you tell us otherwise.
Inspect every freight shipment before you sign. Count the packages and check for damage. Signing the delivery receipt confirms the order arrived complete and undamaged, so note any problem on the receipt before you sign it.
Full Truckloads
Full truckload (FTL) orders are custom quoted after checkout based on your location, order volume, and how the truck will be unloaded.
- Let us know if you have a dock, forklift, or other unloading equipment.
- Tell us if you need liftgate or manual unload service.
- Email support@buildasoil.com ahead of time for an FTL quote.
Order Tracking
We email tracking as soon as your order ships. If it does not arrive, check buildasoil.aftership.com with your order details, or email support@buildasoil.com.
Shipping Protection
This optional add-on at checkout covers your shipment against loss, theft, and damage, and we fast-track those claims for replacement or resolution. Even with protection, photos and documentation help us move carrier claims along faster.
Claims
Send all claims to support@buildasoil.com. We do not process claims by phone.
Include:
- A description of the issue
- Photos or video of the damage, or of missing or incorrect items
- Images of the packaging and labels
Hold onto the packaging and any damaged items until the claim is resolved, since carriers may require an inspection.
Claim deadlines
- Damage or missing items: within 60 days of delivery
- Incorrect products: within 60 days of shipment
- Lost or misdelivered packages: within 60 days of shipment
Once Your Order Leaves Our Facility
We help with every carrier claim we can. But once an order is in the carrier's hands, we cannot control delays, damage, or misdelivery, and the carrier makes the final call on claims.

Description
Description
Looking for the cleanest seed meal with extra benefits for your soil?
That is where EcoMax 6-1-2 Neem Kernel Fertilizer comes in.
This cold pressed neem kernel cake delivers a slow release 6-1-2 NPK, along with trace minerals, while also serving as an exceptional carbon source for beneficial microbial growth.
With 35 to 40 percent protein and 25 to 30 percent carbohydrates, EcoMax helps feed the soil food web, condition the soil, and support the kind of biological activity that leads to healthier plants from the ground up.
Neem is especially unique because it comes from a nitrogen fixing legume tree, which naturally helps improve the soil where it grows. That matters, because the quality of the source shows up in the final product. This neem is wild harvested in India, not farmed, which means you get an incredibly clean input with low heavy metals and a consistent level of azadirachtin, one of the key active compounds found in neem cake. In the soil, that helps support a cleaner growing environment and can play a role in discouraging pests, all while functioning as a renowned soil amendment that growers have trusted for years.
EcoMax is also a longtime favorite in the organic growing world because it has been recommended by Clackamas Coot for more than 20 years as part of the famous Clackamas Coot recipe. That kind of staying power matters. Growers come back to neem cake again and again because it supports rhizosphere health, improves phosphorus and potassium uptake, and helps plants use nitrogen more efficiently. It is one of those ingredients that earns its place in a serious living soil program.
Unlike neem oil, which is used very differently, neem cake is completely at home in your soil mix. It is a safe, proven input that works as both a slow release fertilizer and a natural soil conditioner. If you are building a stronger soil foundation and want a clean, dependable ingredient with a long track record, EcoMax 6-1-2 belongs in the mix.
Instructions for Use:
Top/Side Dress at 1/4 Cup Per Plant
Mix Into Potting Soil Recipe - 1/2 Cup Per Cubic Foot or 13lb per cubic yard
Use EcoMax 6-1-2 as a soil amendment when building or reamending potting soil, raised beds, or garden beds. Mix thoroughly into the root zone before planting, or top dress around established plants and water in well. For custom living soil blends, use according to your preferred recipe. For top dressing, reapply as needed during the growing cycle based on plant size, container size, and overall soil fertility.
Why growers love it
EcoMax offers slow release nutrition, supports beneficial microbes, helps condition the soil, and brings in the trusted power of wild harvested neem cake in one clean input. It is OMRI listed, CDFA Organic Input Material, and built for growers who care about quality from the soil up
Foliar Spray Recipe:
Neem Cake Extract, Steep and Strain
Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of neem cake per gallon of water. Use clean, dechlorinated water if possible.
Let it steep for 12 to 24 hours at room temperature, stirring occasionally.
Strain thoroughly using a fine mesh bag or cloth so no particles remain, this helps prevent clogging your sprayer.
Use immediately for best results.
How to Use
Apply as a light foliar spray with lights off or during early morning or evening. Coat leaf surfaces evenly, including undersides.
Can also be used as a soil drench to support a cleaner root zone.
Optional Additions
Add a small amount of BuildASoil Horticultural Aloe and a natural surfactant like BuildASoil Q-20 extract or ThermX 70 yucca extract to help the spray spread and stick more evenly.
Quick Tips
Always test on a small area first.
Use within 24 hours.
Keep applications light and consistent rather than heavy.
