How much does professional mulching cost?
Professional mulching is one of the most cost-effective ways to boost your landscape’s health and curb appeal—and most homeowners are surprised how affordable it really is. On average, professional mulching costs between $80 and $150 per cubic yard of mulch installed, depending on the type of material you choose and the size of the area.
Here’s how the pricing typically breaks down:
Basic Mulch (Shredded Bark or Hardwood): Usually the most affordable option, ideal for routine maintenance.
Premium Mulch (Colored, Cedar, or Specialty Blends): Costs more but lasts longer, resists fading, and enhances landscape aesthetics.
Installation Included: Professional pricing includes delivery, spreading, bed cleanup, edging, and disposal of old mulch—so you’re not left with the heavy labor.
For most homeowners with average-sized beds, a full professional mulch application typically ranges from $200 to $600 total. Larger properties, thicker mulch depths, or premium materials can increase costs modestly.
More importantly than price alone is value: professional mulching helps suppress weeds, retain soil moisture, regulate soil temperatures, and give your landscape a finished, clean look. Mulch that’s installed poorly or unevenly often blows away, compacts, or fades quickly—negating any savings.
If you want a lush, polished landscape that performs season after season, professional mulching is a smart investment. Schedule a consultation to get an accurate estimate and a plan tailored to your yard.

History
The Town of Sharon was first settled as part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1637 and was deemed the 2nd precinct of Stoughton in 1740. It was established as the district of Stoughtonham on June 21, 1765, incorporated as the Town of Stoughtonham on August 23, 1775, and was named Sharon on February 25, 1783, after Israel’s Sharon plain, due to its high level of forestation. Several towns in New England were given this name. Part of Stoughtonham went to the new town of Foxborough on June 10, 1776. During the American Revolution, the townspeople of Sharon made cannonballs and cannons for the Continental Army at a local foundry.
In front of the Sharon Public Library stands a statue of Deborah Sampson, Sharon’s town heroine. Sampson disguised herself as a man to fight in the Revolutionary War. After the war, she married Benjamin Gannett, a farmer, and lived in Sharon until the end of her life. Sampson began a campaign in 1790 to secure a pension from her time in the Revolutionary War, which earned the support of well known public figures, including Paul Revere. In 1804, Revere visited Sampson (then Sampson Gannett) at her farm in Sharon and wrote to the congressman of her district, William Eustis, that he found her “much more deserving than hundreds to whom Congress have been generous.” Sampson was placed on the United States pension list a year later, and awarded an annual payment. She is buried in the local Rock Ridge Cemetery. A street in Sharon is named Deborah Sampson Street in her honor. In 1983, the Massachusetts General Court designated Sampson as the official State Heroine of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The Unitarian and Congregational churches in the center of Sharon both have church bells manufactured by Paul Revere.
The recipient of letters from across the United States in Stanley Milgram‘s small-world experiment lived in Sharon.
Sharon is the former home of the Kendall Whaling Museum, founded by Henry P. Kendall in 1955. In 2001, the museum was merged with the New Bedford Whaling Museum, and its collection is now part of that museum, though the archives of the museum are still held in Sharon.
In Sharon there are six historical properties or districts that are registered with the state. Of the six, five are listed
on the National Register and three are certified local historic districts:
In 1970, Sharon’s First Historic District becomes an LHD. This is the area on North Main Street from Post
Office Square to School Street and includes the Library and the Unitarian and Congregational Churches. It
becomes a National Register District in 1975. In 1974 Cobb’s Tavern becomes a National Historic Landmark. Located at 41 Bay Road, it becomes
Sharon’s Second Historic District in 1991. In 1980, Stoneholm, located at 188 Ames Street, becomes a National Historic Landmark. In 1984, the Stoughtonham Furnace Site (partially in Foxborough) becomes a National Historic Landmark. In 1997, Borderland State Park (partially in Easton) becomes a National Register District. In 2004, Sharon’s Third Historic District was approved by Town Meeting and accepted by the Commonwealth.
This includes the Charles R. Wilber School, the Pleasant Street School, and the Kate Morrell Park.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 24.2 square miles (62.6 km), of which 23.3 square miles (60.4 km) is land and 0.9 square mile (2.2 km) (3.56%) is water. This includes Lake Massapoag, which is one of the town’s most prominent features and a popular recreational site for swimming and boating. It was largely responsible for the town’s early development as a summer resort location. Massapoag is drained by the Canoe River to the south, and Massapoag Brook to the north.
Sharon is located in a continental climate, like most of New England and most of the Northeastern and Midwestern United States. It is cooler than coastal New England locations because it is inland. The town has warm to hot summers and cold winters. It is often humid in the summer. Sharon receives about 50 inches of precipitation every year on average. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Sharon has a humid continental climate, abbreviated “Dfb” on climate maps.

What Benefits Does Mulch Bring to Your Property?
Mulch delivers some of the highest return-on-investment benefits of any landscaping service, both visually and functionally. When applied correctly, mulch improves plant health, reduces maintenance, and instantly elevates curb appeal.
One of the biggest benefits of mulch is moisture retention. Mulch helps soil hold water longer, reducing the need for frequent watering and protecting plants during hot, dry periods. This is especially important for shrubs, trees, and newly planted beds.
Mulch also plays a critical role in weed suppression. By blocking sunlight from reaching the soil surface, mulch significantly reduces weed growth, saving you time, frustration, and money on weed control throughout the season.
Another key benefit is soil temperature regulation. Mulch insulates plant roots, keeping them cooler in summer and protecting them from freeze-thaw cycles in winter. This leads to stronger root systems and healthier, longer-lasting plants.
From an aesthetic standpoint, fresh mulch provides a clean, finished look that instantly boosts curb appeal and makes planting beds stand out. It also helps define landscape edges and creates contrast against lawns and hardscapes.
Over time, organic mulch breaks down and improves soil quality, adding nutrients and encouraging beneficial microorganisms.
In short, mulch protects your landscape investment while making your property look polished and well cared for. Professional mulching ensures proper depth, clean edges, and long-lasting results, giving you maximum benefit with minimal upkeep.

What month should you mulch?
The best time to mulch is typically spring, with April and May being the most popular and effective months for most homeowners. Mulching in spring helps lock in soil moisture, regulate soil temperature as the weather warms, and suppress weeds before they have a chance to take over your landscape beds.
Spring mulching also gives your property an immediate visual refresh. Fresh mulch defines planting beds, highlights shrubs and trees, and instantly boosts curb appeal after a long winter.
That said, fall mulching—usually October or November—also has important benefits. Fall mulch acts as insulation, protecting plant roots from harsh winter temperature swings and freeze-thaw cycles. It’s especially beneficial for newly planted shrubs, trees, and perennials that need extra protection going into winter.
What you want to avoid is mulching too early in spring, before the soil has had a chance to warm up. Mulching frozen or overly cold soil can slow plant growth and delay healthy root activity.
For most properties, the ideal approach is:
Spring mulching for weed control, moisture retention, and appearance
Optional fall mulching for winter protection and soil health
Timing matters, but so does proper installation. Correct mulch depth, clean edging, and keeping mulch away from plant stems are critical to avoid rot and disease.
If you want maximum benefit and a polished look that lasts all season, a professional mulching service ensures your landscape is protected, healthy, and looking its best at the right time of year.

Should You Remove Old Mulch Before Applying New?
In most cases, yes—old mulch should be removed or reduced before applying new mulch. Simply piling fresh mulch on top of old layers is one of the most common landscaping mistakes and can actually harm your plants over time.
When mulch builds up too thick, it prevents water and oxygen from reaching the soil. This can lead to root rot, fungal growth, pest issues, and shallow root systems. Over-mulching—often called “mulch volcanoes”—is especially damaging around shrubs and trees.
That said, old mulch doesn’t always need to be completely removed. A professional approach evaluates the existing depth first. If there is more than 2–3 inches of mulch already in place, excess material should be removed before adding new mulch. If the old mulch has broken down into soil-like material, it can often be incorporated into the soil to improve structure and nutrients.
Removing old mulch also allows for proper bed cleanup, weed removal, edge redefining, and inspection of plant health. This ensures the new mulch is applied evenly, at the correct depth, and away from plant stems and trunks.
The goal isn’t just appearance—it’s performance. Proper mulch management improves moisture retention, reduces weeds, and protects root systems without suffocating them.
If you want your landscape to stay healthy and polished year after year, professional mulching is the safest option. A trained crew knows when to remove, reduce, or reuse existing mulch—protecting your plants and your investment.
