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.
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.
Every product page shows an estimated delivery window based on current fulfillment and carrier schedules, so you know what to expect before you buy.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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 truckload (FTL) orders are custom quoted after checkout based on your location, order volume, and how the truck will be unloaded.
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.
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.
Send all claims to support@buildasoil.com. We do not process claims by phone.
Include:
Hold onto the packaging and any damaged items until the claim is resolved, since carriers may require an inspection.
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.

This all natural product works!
Partnering with Clarke Mosquito Control Products, Inc and the godfather of BTI, we're thrilled to offer a potent solution against fungus gnats - a small package of highly concentrated BTI in Kaolin Clay carrier!
Becker microbial was the pioneer now sold to Clarke Mosquito Control, and this product is now offered in small 8 ounce bag.
WDG3000 means Water Dispersible Granules, utilized at 3000 ITU/mg.
ITU stands for International Toxin Units. While Bits and Mosquito Dunk products are labeled down to 200 ITU/mg, our product targets a 3000 ITU/mg concentration for maximum efficiency.
When comparing to other brands of BTI you will discover 4 "Strains" of BTI with different names - all leading back to the original strain discovered by Becker Microbial. This was proven with DNA sequencing
This means direct access to the original, potent source, ensuring you use the proper ITU rate with this premium concentrate.
Our product is 43% BTI and 57% Kaolin Clay
Kaolinite is a soft, earthy, usually white, mineral (dioctahedral phyllosilicate clay), produced by the chemical weathering of aluminium silicate minerals like feldspar
The following mixing guidance is derived from the EPA-approved application rate range of 50–400 grams per acre when applied in 5–100 gallons of water per acre.
For ground application using 25 gallons of spray mixture per acre:
Mix 2 grams per gallon to achieve 50 g/acre
Mix 8 grams per gallon to achieve 200 g/acre
Use higher labeled rates in polluted water and when late third and early fourth instar larvae predominate, mosquito populations are high, and/or algae are abundant, as directed on the EPA-approved label.
Always read and follow the complete EPA-approved product label. It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Reapply as necessary to maintain larval control, particularly in polluted water or water containing moderate to high levels of organic matter, as directed on the EPA-approved label.
For general reference only:
The bulk density of this product is approximately 2 grams per level teaspoon.
Always measure product by weight when preparing spray mixtures. Use of calibrated scales is recommended to ensure accurate dosing consistent with the EPA-approved label.
