How To Use The Mulch Installation Cost Calculator
Step 1 - Measure Mulch Beds
Use a tape measure to find the length and width of your mulch bed(s). Ensure you measure all areas where you plan to apply mulch.

If you don't have a tape measure, no problem. You can use your feet to get a rough idea of the size of the area.
​
One step of an average adult is approximately 2 to 3 feet.
