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.

Can someone smart tell me how many bags would equal a square yard?
This is volume, not surface. 2 cubic feet per bag. 27 cubic feet in 1 cubic yard. 14 bags (14x2=28) will be 1 cubic yard

dude, send yourself an email with the title of "mulch" and note how many you buy this year.

or do the email receipt for lowes.

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?

I get two seasons out of it, but the second year is admittedly rather crap looking, just tolerable.

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.
I got the Scott's this year and the Lowes last year. The Lowes mulch is much lower quality. Huge chunks of wood and lots of pieces of cloth and plastic and metal. I put down about 100 or so bags of the Scott's last week and it had none of that stuff in it, and it's a much finer quality than the Lowes.

I still think I'll just get it delivered from a local company next year though, because even with a 95 dollar delivery fee, I'd get the same amount of mulch (that's higher quality) for the same price.

This price looks to be fairly nationwide

Good deal...I need about 100 bags

If you need that much check local rock and mulch yards. They can deliver a large truck load cheaper than buying by the bag in many cases.


Also where I live you can get free mulch at the landfill. When people drop trees off they separate the hardwood and mulch it to save room. Charge to drop the tree off but give it away free after they grind and heat.

Not good. Maybe get 1-4 months on average. Will vary by sunlight and rain amounts.

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.
