Why Use Mulch?

  • Mulch helps to retain moisture which reduces plant watering time. It encourages healthy plants and soil by dispersing water more equally over time. 
  • Mulch made of organic tree materials can help enrich the soil by naturally transferring the nutrients from the mulch into the soil. The tree nutrients enrich the soil and provide a healthy environment for plants to thrive. 
  •  Mulch acts as a protective layer to help prevent weeds, and it protects your soil from too much heat or moisture. 
  • Mulch freshens up an existing landscaping appearance with rich colors and textures. It gives a new look and feel to a yard.

The Smitty’s Difference 

  • Mulch made by Smitty’s Tree Service is produced right at our headquarters in Alsip, IL. It is not outsourced elsewhere and is made on site by our tree care professionals. 
  • Our high-quality mulch is made using only trees that have been locally trimmed or removed. Because of this, our mulch contains vital nutrients that can be used to enrich your soil and the landscaping around it. 
  • Our mulch is not full of pallets or construction debris of any kind. Pallets contain nails and harmful materials that we never want in our mulch. We never use those materials to make our mulch. Only fresh organic tree materials are used. 

How Much Mulch Do you Need?

If you know the square feet or how many bags you typically use, please use this as a reference when deciding how much mulch to use:


  • 150 Square feet of mulch laid down at 2 inches thickness equals approximately 1 Cubic Yard of Mulch
  • 14 Bags of mulch equals approximately 1 Cubic Yard of Mulch


If you are unsure about how to calculate the square footage, please use our calculator to convert your area to cubic yards. Measure the length by the width of the space you are looking to mulch and enter those dimensions into our calculator along with the desired thickness of the mulch. Click submit. The CUBIC YARDS number is the amount that you will need.
