Exactly, a nice clean edge is what makes a mulch bed complete. I push more to the $1.00 per linear foot amount since i got a bed edger. You can make your money back quick when you can edge 600ft of beds in less than 30 min.Originally posted by GarPA
we dont touch a fork full of mulch unless they allow us to edge or re-edge the beds...not doing that makes for a sorry looking job. Priced per linear foot...usually between .50 and 1.00 /ft
