Suggested reads about Mulching
What do mulching services include?
Buying and spreading mulch doesn’t have to take a lot of time, money, and effort—especially when a mulching specialist is within arm’s reach! When you book a mulching service through Airtasker, you can expect your Tasker to take care of this labor-intensive yet crucial part of maintaining a garden. Here’s what a typical mulching service will include:
Picking and buying the right mulch
First, the Tasker may assess your garden and determine the kind of mulch it needs. Shredded bark is quite common and easy to apply, for example, but isn’t as nutritious for the soil. Household waste such as grass clippings, leaves, and compost is beneficial for the soil but isn’t great at preventing weeds. Shredded leaves and pine needles are also great for mulching. A thinner mulch made of grass clippings and straw may be easier to use and more suitable for vegetable gardens.
The Tasker can also help you figure out how much mulch to buy based on the size of your yard, the thickness required, and your budget. You can provide the supply budget and send your Tasker to the garden center. Otherwise, you can book a mulch delivery service to get the materials sent straight to your doorstep.
Preparing the garden beds
Once the supplies are ready, the Tasker starts clearing the flower and vegetable beds. They’ll tidy up and other debris, then scrape off the old mulch. Next, they’ll check if your beds require watering and an application of herbicide. This is the best time to get the moisture and weedkiller in since the mulch will help hold them. Then, the mulching specialist may uproot any weeds lingering in the garden.
Spreading the mulch
Now, it’s time to spread that mulch! The Tasker may put on a layer that’s around 1-4 inches thick—just enough to keep the moisture in and keep weeds out, but not so thick that no water reaches the soil. Ideally, the Tasker should avoid creating “mulch volcanoes,” which can become hotbeds for pests, rot, and diseases that can spread around your garden.
Take note that for ornamentals, mulch should be at least 3 inches away from the base of each plant. But if you’re growing vegetables, the Tasker needs to apply mulch around the base to help them retain moisture and prevent weeds.
Mulching trees
Tree mulching has many benefits, so you should consider booking a tree mulching service. A Tasker can spread mulch over the trees in your garden. This process protects young trees, provides much-needed nutrition, and reduces the threat of other plants and weeds. If you have an old or damaged tree, you can also hire a tree surgeon who can safely and correctly prune and treat trees.

Point Lonsdale VIC, Australia
2nd Jun 2026
We are planting a new native garden bed on our nature strip. There will be approx 1.5 cubic metres of leaf mulch delivered on the afternoon of Tuesday 9 June. The mulch needs to be spread around the new plants which are on approx 40 square metres of nature strip area (13m x 3m). There should be mulch applied evenly from the front fence line to approx 3 metres from the fence line. There will be 20-30 new plants in the ground (very small tubestock plants) and it is important that there is a mulch free area that is 5cm in diameter around each plant. At the end of the job, the driveway needs to be fully swept and cleaned so there is no mulch left on the driveway. The tools needed are a wheelbarrow, one shovel per person and a large outdoor broom. These will not be provided. Although the timing is listed as flexible, it needs to be done on either Wednesday 10 June or Thursday 11 June (Wednesday preferred). Ideally you have a lot of experience in gardening or landscaping work. Type of gardening: Other Size of garden: Under 50m² Has green waste bin: No
