Types of Mulch
There are many different mulch options for your yard. Our qualified landscaping specialists will work with you to determine the best mulch delivery and installation for your plants, budget, and goals. Mulches we install include:
Organic mulches
These mulches are made from wood or other natural plant materials. Over time, organic mulches decompose and add nutrients to the soil.
Inorganic mulches
These mulches are made from materials like rubber or rocks. Inorganic mulches do not add nutrients to the soil, but they do require less upkeep over time.
We offer mulch in various colors and types. Common mulch colors include red, brown, and black.

When to Schedule Mulch Spreading Services
How long your mulch lasts will depend on the type of mulch you choose for your installation, where it was installed, and weather conditions. We recommend annual mulch installation for the best weed prevention and plant support results.
Mulch does its job best when applied near the end of winter and beginning of spring, while weeds are still dormant. This allows mulch to support delicate perennial plants as they emerge while also limiting weed growth.

Yes, we provide mulch delivery with installation for residential and commercial properties in Knoxville. Our service is a complete package—you cannot order delivery only for self-installation. We also help you choose the right mulch type and color for your plants, landscape goals, and budget.
A common best practice is 2–3 inches of mulch in beds, keeping mulch pulled back from trunks/crowns to avoid moisture issues. We’ll install at an appropriate depth for bed conditions and plant needs.
