Choosing the Right Mulch
Dyed mulch (black, brown, or red) holds its color the longest, typically a full season or more, which makes it the go-to for front beds and commercial properties. Black reads modern and hides debris. Brown looks the most natural. Red suits brick homes and traditional landscaping.
Natural hardwood mulch breaks down faster and feeds the soil as it does, which is better for vegetable gardens and planting beds you refresh every year. Cedar and hemlock cost more but resist insects and hold a rich natural tone without dye.
Playground mulch is certified engineered wood fiber sized for fall protection under swing sets and play areas.
How Much Mulch Do You Need?
One cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at 3 inches deep, the depth we recommend for weed control. Measure your bed length times width in feet, multiply by 0.25 for a 3 inch layer, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Or call (973) 347-3117 and we will do the math.
Bulk Beats Bags
A cubic yard equals about 13.5 bags of store mulch. On any project over 3 yards, bulk delivery usually saves both money and a dozen trips loading bags. We deliver seven days a week from Stanhope across Morris, Sussex, Warren, and Hunterdon Counties.
Prices start at $25.50 per cubic yard depending on type, plus delivery by town. Dyed mulches run $37.50 while cedar and hemlock run $75.00 and $47.00.
Black dyed mulch holds color longest, followed by brown. Red fades fastest in full sun. All dyed mulches outlast natural hardwood for color.
Top off dyed mulch once a year with an inch of fresh material. Natural hardwood usually needs a full 2 to 3 inch refresh each spring.
April and May are our busiest weeks. Order in March or early April for the fastest delivery slots.
