I have a calendar alert that repeats on March 1st that has the number of bags I used. If I use more, I'll just update it. It gives me a rough reminder of how many I need.
This is $2 but if I want to avoid the artificial colors and get the garden bark that's $6.76. Ridiculous
We find the bags easier than bulk, though the mulch quality is lower. We order 2 pallets delivered then load them up on my Gorilla cart and drop throughout the planting berms. Then come back with a knife to split the bag open, dump, and then spread. Save the time to shovel into a cart from a big pile.
Bulk double ground by me is $30 a cubic yard and brown color enhanced is $39.

If you have hilly terrain you want bagged material
This requires 8 cubic yards. We would have gone with bags but going for Cedar (or its smellyummy).

Home Depot has $3.33/bag right now for their Vigoro brand mulch. Won't that go lower soon? I seem to recall the HD Vigoro is a higher quality that the Lowes brand.

Lowed brand is 2 cubic feet so you're getting more coverage with Lowe's mulch for less money

Quote from Joemaxwell :
Been waiting for this. For me looks like $99 flat rate delivery. To save time, trips and messing up the car I split with a few neighbors to make it worthwhile.

I've always owned a pickup for this reason. It's 30 years old and runs great and serves as the extra vehicle when one of the daily drivers is in the shop.

I bought 30 bags last weekend. I will go get another 20 this weekend. Trying to split my weekend chores up with having some enjoyable time as well.

Quote from ChristopherJLee :
What kind of mulch would be best near fruit trees? Want to kill grass and weeds under the tree but dont want toxins. Or should i be buying something else?
Just make sure you do not pile the mulch up like a cone around the trunk. Te top surface of the mulch should actually slope towards the trunk.

Can someone smart tell me how many bags would equal a square yard?
There's a calculator on page. 3'x3'x3" is 2 bags

^ this 100%. we get ~200 bags, delivered on 2-3 pallets and then use a 2-wheeled wheelbarrow and our wagon to haul 6-8 bags at a time around the mulch beds, dropping them off as we go, then come back with a metal rake and boxcutter to split and spread. bagged vs bulk, it's faster and easier to load; I can carry way more mulch per wheelbarrow trip; it's way easier to handle and spread; and it's so much cleaner compared to the pile that would stain the driveway.

Delivery for me is flat fee of $79. I wait for this sale every year. heart

Just bought 24 bags…

The mulch is more like shredded, not chips. The Scott's I used before were like actual wood chips vs the Lowe's mulch.
FWIW, the ~50 bags I just bought were much different and in the 'wood chip' category that you describe. I think depending on the region or drop, you can get a wide range of types/quality. The stuff around here in Northern California outside the Bay Area is consistently wood chips with a few pieces of chipped construction wood.

I got chipdrop a few times and whew what you got seemed like a crapshoot. They also came randomly and didn't follow instructions on where to drop. It's just not enough money saved for the drawbacks though if I just wanted a lot of mulch to cover an area in the back of my property I could see this working out great.

If you order chipdrop at this time of year (when there's a lot of supply) you can probably get a pretty quick delivery.

No, or at least mine didn't before but you can literally load up a cart, check out at $2 each in garden center and then walk to Customer Service with your old receipt and get a refund. Iv done it before when they wouldn't PM so i created more work for them to have to go return them back to their spot later just to spite them.

Even if it lasts a year its at most $30 ( 10 bags) per year. Better than paying $700 all at once
