One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, which is the standard install depth for most groundcover beds. Going to 3 inches for heavier foot traffic areas or slopes drops that coverage, so measure your bed length and width first, then decide on depth based on how the area gets used. Most Beavercreek front yard beds run somewhere between half a yard and two yards depending on how much lawn is being converted.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 100-160 square feet at a 2-3 inch depth.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.

We have always spread our own mulch for the past 24 years. This was our first time with the Mulch Mound - things I liked: they have online ordering and provide a digital receipt which means you can remember how much you ordered (I always forget for the next year!), they were on time, they were able to deliver in 48 hours, they were generous with the portion (we got 9 yards and it felt like a FULL nine yards!), the driver was polite! We have ordered from reputable places, and there is always a little trash in the mulch. The mulch we recv'd from Mulch Mound had barely any... we were pleasant surprised!!! Color was great! Not to mention - the price was competitive and LOWER than other mulch places around. We will use again !! Highly recommend! Thanks Mulch Mound!

Complete Your Outdoor Project

Landscaping fabric goes down before the rock, always, or you will be pulling weeds through stone within a year. Edging material keeps rock contained along lawn lines and driveways, which matters more here than people expect once mowing season starts. Some customers layer a thin bed of soil or sand under the fabric on uneven silt loam ground to help the rock settle flat.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Beavercreek's silt loam, skip skipping the fabric. This soil holds moisture and grows weeds fast through spring, and rock alone without a barrier will have grass poking through by the second summer. Lay heavy landscape fabric, overlap seams by several inches, and pin it down before spreading rock. This one step is what separates a bed that stays clean for a decade from one you're re-doing in three years.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Rock traps leaves instead of breaking them down, which matters more here with the mature tree cover common around older Beavercreek neighborhoods. Plan on blowing or raking leaves off rock beds each fall before they mat down and turn into a soggy layer that holds moisture against your foundation through winter. A leaf blower on a low setting works better than a rake, which can scatter stone.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

If you're doing a large front yard bed near The Greene style landscaping that's common in newer developments, mixing rock with mulch in different zones can save material and money. Use rock along foundations and downspouts where drainage matters most, and reserve mulch for planting beds where soil health and organic matter actually help the plants. This split reduces total rock volume needed while still getting the low maintenance benefit where you need it.

Decorative Stone in Beavercreek

Beavercreek sits in zone 6b with silt loam soil that drains slowly and swells when it freezes, which is exactly the kind of ground where organic mulch breaks down fast and needs constant topping off. Rock does not care about that cycle. It sits on top of fabric, sheds water instead of absorbing it, and does not compact into the silt the way bark mulch eventually does. Around downspouts and foundation lines, where this soil holds moisture longest after an Ohio spring rain, rock keeps things from turning into a mud trap. It is a common choice for front yard groundcover beds that homeowners here want to install once and stop thinking about.

What Landscape Rock Is

Landscape rock is stone chosen for how it looks as much as what it does. River rock is smooth and rounded, decomposed granite is fine and packs firm underfoot. Both are sold by the cubic yard for beds, borders, paths, and dry creek beds.

River Rock vs Decomposed Granite

River rock stays loose and rolls, so it suits beds, borders, and drainage runs where it can sit in place. Decomposed granite compacts into a firm surface, so it suits paths, patios, and anywhere you will walk or roll a wheelbarrow.

Depth and Coverage

Spread river rock 2 to 3 inches deep over landscape fabric so it stays put and weeds stay down. Lay decomposed granite 3 to 4 inches deep, wet it, and compact it in lifts for a surface that sheds water instead of rutting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

How long does landscape rock actually last before I need to redo it?

Landscape rock is a one time install, not something you refresh yearly like mulch. Over fabric, it typically holds its look and function for a decade or more with just occasional leaf cleanup and topping off low spots. It does not break down or feed the soil, so it stays put unless disturbed by digging or heavy erosion.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need for a 300 square foot bed?

At the standard 2 inch install depth, one cubic yard covers about 162 square feet, so a 300 square foot bed needs just under 2 cubic yards. If you're going to 3 inches for a higher traffic area, plan closer to 2.5 to 3 cubic yards to keep enough coverage.

Answer

When is the best time to install rock in Beavercreek?

Anytime the ground isn't frozen works, but many people install between last frost around April 25 and first frost around October 15 when the silt loam soil is workable and not soggy from snowmelt. Avoid installing right after heavy spring rain when the ground is saturated, since fabric won't lay flat on soft, wet soil.

Answer

Where will the rock be dropped and do I need to move it myself?

The truck places the load wherever you direct on delivery day, typically a driveway or curbside spot close to your project area. We don't move it into the bed itself, so plan for wheelbarrow work or have a path clear if the drop spot isn't right next to where it's going.

Answer

Should I choose rock or mulch for a bed near my downspouts?

Rock is the better call around downspouts and foundations because it doesn't hold moisture against your house or break down into a soggy mat like mulch can in Beavercreek's slower draining silt loam. Save mulch for planting beds where you actually want organic matter feeding the soil around root systems.
