Pocomoke City soils mapped in the area are commonly poorly drained, so the ground under your mulch can stay wet for long periods. That makes a deeper mulch layer helpful for keeping beds dry on top and preventing weed growth. Around 71 days a year drop below 32F, which compresses the work window for spreading mulch in late fall and early spring.
About 8 inches of snowfall a year means plowing can scatter a loose mulch surface, so using a heavier shredded variety that mats together reduces that problem. The ground around Pocomoke City is in dual hydrologic group B/D: where the soil is drained it takes water at a moderate rate, but where it is not drained most rain runs across the surface. This means drainage planning under the mulch matters more here than in many other areas.
With no hard freeze to work around, the timing question is moisture rather than season. You can mulch almost any time the ground is dry enough to handle the truck.
Mulch is sold by the ton, and the amount you need depends on the area to cover and the depth you choose. Use the mulch calculator to estimate tonnage based on square footage and your chosen depth. It gives a starting point for ordering.
