Spread 1.5m³ of Pine Bark Mulch – Rosemeadow

$150

Rosemeadow NSW 2560, Australia

24th Aug 2026

I have approximately 1.5m³ of chunky pine bark mulch being delivered Monday afternoon. I need someone to spread it evenly over an existing side garden area. This area is already established and has existing mulch underneath. The job is to move the new pine bark around the area, spread it evenly and rake it out neatly around the existing trees and plants. Equipment supplied (if needed): - Wheelbarrow - Shovel - Rake - Blower vac for the final tidy-up The property is on a corner block with easy access from both sides of the house, making access to the garden bed very straightforward. You don't need to be a professional landscaper. I'm looking for someone reliable, physically capable and who will take pride in leaving the garden neat and tidy. I have photos showing the area and the finished result I'm looking to achieve. Mulch is supplied — you are providing the labour only. Location: Rosemeadow NSW 2560 Budget: $150 Timing: Flexible — must be completed sometime Tuesday through Friday this week, during daylight hours.
