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.

Have cut down heaps of trees on a 1acre property and Need help to clean it up. Was going to hire a mulcher/wood chipper… but thought I’d advertise here incase someone already has one and wanted to do the job. Chipper will need to take at least 150mm. Most logs and bigger branches we will keep on the property for other uses. So it’s mainly the tree tops and smaller branches that need putting through the mulcher. Mulch produced will also stay on the property. I work quick and don’t mess around. Happy to work as a job rate.. eg. 1 Day=5hrs Is potential for another days work in the near future. Up to you if one or two people for the job.

Move Mulch from Front Yard to Backyard (No Spreading)
$100
Peregian Beach QLD, Australia
14th Jul 2025
Hi! I need someone to move a pile of mulch from the front yard to the backyard. No need to spread or scatter the mulch—just transfer the pile to the back. The job should be fairly straightforward for someone who’s fit and has done similar tasks before. There are a few stairs involved, but nothing major (I can send a video for clarity showing where the mulch needs to be moved from and to). You’ll need to bring your own buckets and shovel. The task could be done solo, but might be easier and quicker with two people, so feel free to apply as a pair or let me know if you have someone you can bring along. Let me know your availability. Thanks!
