When Does Lowe's Mulch Go On Sale?

Mulch at Lowe's generally goes on sale a few times a year. We usually see a sale around Easter, and in fact a 4-for-$10 offer popped up then in 2024. Make a note of some other key dates, too. Memorial Day (May 27 this year) tends to see another mulch sale at Lowe's; July 4 (usually falling on or around July 4) usually gets a sale; and Labor Day (September 2 this year) will likely be another opportunity to save.

How Much Can I Save on Mulch Cost?

As we've said, you can expect to see mulch going for around $1.70 per cubic foot on an average day. But Lowe's mulch sale days are no average days. Experts agree that you shouldn't be paying any more than $1.50, and Lowe's 5-for-$10 mulch sales often see prices dropping as low as a buck per cubic foot. (Practically speaking, for a 500-square-foot patch of garden getting a 2" layer of mulch, paying $1 instead of $1.70 adds up to a savings of $58. Just as an example.)

How Do I Get the Best Price on Mulch?

The obvious answer, given the article in which this sentence is situated, is to keep an eye out for a 5-for-$10 sale. And as luck would have it, there's one going on right now as part of Lowe's Memorial Day deals.

Outside of specific mulch deals at Lowe's, you should also be wary of delivery prices, which start expensive and only get more so. If at all possible, it's worth opting for in-store pickup instead. And hey, it's not just a Lowe's game. You can also try stores like Home Depot, which offers similar 5-for-$10 sales. (Learn more in our guide to Home Depot mulch deals.)

How Does Shopping Compare Online vs. In-Store?

Shopping online for mulch has advantages both big and small. The obvious big advantage is the ease of price comparison. When the cost per cubic foot adds up so significantly, the benefit of saving a few cents per bag can't be overstated. It's also easy to quickly home in on exactly the kind of mulch you're after. You can filter a Lowe's mulch sale by material, color, brand, texture, whether it's made from recycled materials, and more. You can also make quick use of a mulch coverage calculator, which does the hard math so you don't have to.

What Else Should I Consider When Shopping Mulch Deals?

Besides going for the best price per cubic foot, you can take a whole slew of things into consideration. Do you have a specific color in mind? Do you want natural or synthetic mulch? Natural mulch helps to enrich soil as it breaks down, which is a solid advantage. But then rubber mulch can last many years without breaking down or losing its color, which might be better if you'd like to set it and forget it.
