Comprehensive Residential and Commercial Property Services to include the following: Lawn Care Mulch Delivery and Installation Spring/Fall Cleanup Leaf Removal Snow Removal.

"I have a fairly large piece of property. Prior owners didn't do any fall cleanup. You couldn't even remotely see the lawn or the driveway. Gutters were all overflowing with leaves and sticks, huge areas of bramble that had to be removed, hedges that ran the length of the property that were all seriously overgrown, and low hanging branches. Let me tell you, I got home today and i was in shock how absolutely amazing the yard looked. They accomplished soooo much work in a short period of time and it was simply beautiful! The price was very reasonable. I don't think I could have found any company to do a better job at a better price. Give these guys a shot, you will not be disappointed! Thanks Outdoor Property Services - you guys are amazing..."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

A light layer of mulch can help protect a tree, retain moisture, and keep the soil healthy. However, it’s important to avoid over-mulching or piling the mulch up around the trunk of a tree, a practice notoriously called “volcano mulching.” That piled mulch can increase the chances of rot and disease on the tree trunk as well as overwhelming the soil, which needs access to a certain amount of air. Topped trees have it hard enough: mulch sparingly while they heal.

How tall your mulch should be around your tree depends on the type of mulch you use, but aim for 3 to 4 inches as a rule of thumb. You’ll want to avoid simply piling it up in hopes of offering additional benefits to your tree. Volcano mulching is the infamous term for piling way too much mulch against the stem of your tree. This could actually kill your tree or severely harm it, as your tree trunk needs space to breathe without too much moisture.

Yes, most providers offer pickup and delivery as part of the service. Confirm with your contractor.
