Mulch Mound delivered a yard of pea gravel to us. Delivery was on time, driver was friendly and hit a bullseye on the “tarp target”. We used the pea gravel (which was diameter as specified) to fill several muskrat holes around our pond. I would definitely recommend Mulch Mound to a friend!

Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

Complete Your Outdoor Stone Project
Stone for structure, mulch for beds, soil for planting in Akron. That's the full landscape package for clay loam ground. Order together.
Stone absorbs heat during the day and radiates it into the evening hours. In sunny Akron locations, light colored stone keeps surfaces noticeably cooler than dark colors during summer months.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Apply polymeric sand to lock pavers and flagstone together without allowing weed growth. Sweep it into joints dry, then mist with water to activate the binding agents that hold everything together.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Spread decorative stone with a landscape rake rather than a shovel for even coverage. Raking distributes material evenly without creating the piles and bare spots that shoveling tends to cause.
The Unique Landscape of Akron
Stone is a low‑maintenance finish that stays crisp season after season. Akron freeze–thaw and spring rain can beat up beds if materials aren’t refreshed. In Akron, Ohio, stone delivery makes it easier to create crisp borders, stable paths, and drainage-friendly zones. It’s great for edging, drainage zones, and decorative areas that need to stay put. A firm base and clean borders make stone look sharp and stay put. Match the material to the use—pathways, borders, drainage, or a clean decorative finish. Bulk delivery is the easiest way to tackle a real project without the hassle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Click a question to see the answer
Answer
Is stone safe for kids and pets?
Yes, with the right type. Smooth pea gravel and river rock are kid-safe. Skip sharp-edged crushed stone in play zones.
Answer
Can stone damage my foundation?
Not the stone—but improper drainage will. Grade stone areas away from the house. Leave a gap at the foundation for inspection.
Answer
Is stone good for fire pits?
Great choice around fire features. Stone is fireproof and contains sparks. Skip limestone right next to flames—heat can crack it.
Answer
What depth should stone be?
Depends on use: 2 inches decorative, 3–4 inches paths, 4–6 inches drives. Akron's 39 inches of rain yearly means deeper helps.
Answer
How is delivery priced?
Delivery cost depends on distance. Cart provides an estimate; your complete address at checkout locks in actual pricing.
Answer
What stone is best for drainage?
Go with crushed stone, 1–2 inch size. Angular pieces interlock for stability while spaces between allow drainage.
Answer
What stone works around plants?
Avoid limestone near acid-loving plants—it raises pH over time. Granite and river rock are pH-neutral and safe for most plantings.
