I get a yard and a half for my landscape beds and it costs me $32 a yard, and that’s for dyed mulch. $500 seems ridiculously excessive... Quote

Expand We used to do mulch but it seemed like such a waste of time and money so we started slowly replacing all mulch with landscaping stone. Just finished last year and it’s nice not having to shovel and spread anything this year. 1 Quote

momskeeztoo Posted April 7, 2020 Author Report Posted April 7, 2020 If you have a lot of trees, invest in a chipper/ leaf shredder. Definitely worth it. Quote
theprogram4 Posted April 7, 2020 Report Posted April 7, 2020 Never understood mulch. My parents do it every year and now the garden beds are literally inches higher than the pavement Quote

Ride Delaware ? Posted April 13, 2020 Report Posted April 13, 2020 Finished up our house mulching today. Had to spray weeds earlier this week. Only took about two hours. We only put down a very light coat every year so that it rots/biodegrades away. We’ve hardly ever had issues with the bed being too high. I skipped one year and I had to use twice as much to get the same coverage. Maybe if the weather allows sometime this week, I’ll get my blueberry bushes weeded, fertilized, and mulched. Quote
