The Springfield Department of Public Works has long provided free mulch (shredded wood, double hammer-milled, medium-textured, hardwood) for residents to pick-up at the municipal pool parking lot for their gardens. We are pleased to announce the launch of a new mulch delivery service in response to requests by residents. Residential delivery of mulch is available for $100 for 5 cubic yards to homes located in Springfield that have a driveway on which to dump the material. Orders can only be taken online and payment is only accepted by credit card. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee any specific delivery time but delivery will occur within 48 hours of an order being placed, and only between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. Mulch will be dumped at the furthest end of the driveway (closest to the home and away from the street). Mulch will not be dumped on lawns so as to avoid damaging your lawn from the truck driving on it. If you would like to cancel your order, you must do so by speaking directly with a representative of the DPW at 973-912-8483. Cancellations will not be accepted after-hours, by e-mail, or by voicemail message. This service is only available while mulch supplies last.
