Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

The best soil to put around a house foundation is fill dirt, which is soil that’s specifically designed for covering large areas and filling in holes. Don’t waste money regrading around your foundation with expensive topsoil. Use topsoil only for the last layer of soil, about 5 to 10 inches, so that when you do your foundation planting, your grass and plants will have the nutrients they need to grow.

If you’re mulching in the fall, aim to lay down the material right after the first frost, which will vary by climate. Late October and early November are good time ranges to aim for. Try to lay down your mulch after a light rainfall to lock in moisture for root growth through the winter.

Determine whether you have any other heavy, bulky, or oddly-shaped items you’d like to relocate, such as a washing machine or other appliance. Since many professional moving companies may charge minimum fees for their services, you could end up paying the same cost to move a refrigerator as you would to move the fridge and a second or third item.

Mulch delivery costs around $75 per cubic yard, but prices can fluctuate between $30 and $150 per cubic yard depending on the following factors:

  • Type of mulch 

  • Quantity of mulch

  • Time of year y

  • Whether or not you’re paying for installation labor

  • Home’s geographical location

Most mulch delivery companies will provide a free estimate for the delivery based on how many cubic yards you need and any additional services you want. Be sure you know how much mulch you need before calling and asking for quotes.

A 40-pound bag of topsoil covers 0.76 cubic feet, enough for 4.5 square feet with a 2-inch depth or 36 square feet with a .25-inch depth, such as topdressing a standard garden bed. If you want 2 inches of fresh topsoil for your 36-square-foot garden bed, you’ll need eight 40-pound bags.
