Mulch costs me $25 per yard. I need 30 yards for the job...so my materials cost is $750. There is about 3 hours of edging and bed prep. What do you charge for mulch and labor? The I will tell you what some clown said they will do it for for one of my clients.
In MD, $60/hr x3 man hrs.= $180 30yards @ $75/yd =$2250 Total =around $2430, plus consider layout(hills, ect.), and if you have to haul anything away.
I'm in SE Washington state. This is what my bid would look like: Mulch-$60/yd=$1800 3 Hrs x $35=$105 Total Cost=$1905 If it were a job in my area I could be much cheaper though because I get my mulch for $15/yd.
dmk, thats nothing i had one where I bidded $900 ( small job ) and the other company bidded $400. The mulch costed $325
