One cubic yard covers about 162 square feet at the standard 2 inch depth, or closer to 108 square feet if you go a full 3 inches for better weed suppression. Measure your bed in square feet, decide your depth based on how exposed the area is to wind and foot traffic, then divide. Most Bellingham front yard beds run a half yard to two yards depending on how much of the lawn is getting 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.

I recently ordered from mulch mound and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The entire process, from placing the order to delivery was seamless and efficient. The mulch arrived exactly on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. The color was rich and consistent, and I received more than enough to complete my project with proper coverage and packing.

Customer service was equally outstanding. Communication was clear, and the team was responsive and professional throughout. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both a high-quality product and excellent service, but mulch mound did just that.

Highly recommended, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.

Landscape fabric underneath is what keeps this a one time install instead of a weed patch by year two. A lot of customers pair rock with a run of mulch in the planting beds themselves, using rock for the paths and dry zones and mulch where things are actually growing. Edging, whether steel or stone, keeps the rock from migrating into the lawn over a wet winter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Bellingham's silt loam, grade the bed slightly away from the foundation before you lay fabric, even an inch of fall matters. Rock doesn't drain the soil underneath it, it just sits on top, so if the ground beneath is already compacted clay-ish loam, water will find the low spot and pool under the rock instead of running off like you'd expect.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The most common mistake locally is skipping the fabric because people assume rock alone blocks weeds. It doesn't, and with our mild wet winters, seeds blow in and germinate in the dust and silt that settles between stones within a year or two. Fabric first, rock on top, and you get the decade-long low maintenance bed people actually want instead of a rock garden full of dandelions.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your rock and any fabric or edging in the same delivery window rather than piecemeal, since staging one big pile once is easier on your yard and your back than three small drop-offs. If you're doing multiple beds, over-order slightly since leftover rock stores fine in a bin and there's no rush to use it before it degrades, unlike mulch.

Decorative Stone in Bellingham

Bellingham's silt loam holds water, and with frost not letting go until early April, anything organic sitting in a bed through the winter can turn to mush before spring. Rock doesn't care. It sheds water instead of holding it, which is exactly what you want against foundations and downstairs windows where runoff pools. A lot of front yards here go low maintenance groundcover over fabric because nobody wants to be out there every wet October raking soggy mulch. Once it's down, it's down, through however many gray winters this city throws at it.

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

Does landscape rock work in Bellingham's wet climate or will it just get mossy?

It holds up well. Rock doesn't retain moisture the way bark does, so it won't rot or compact, but in shaded, damp spots you may see some moss or algae build up over a few winters, which is mostly cosmetic and washes off with a hose or light pressure wash.

Answer

How much rock do I need for a 300 square foot bed along my foundation?

At the standard 2 inch depth, 300 square feet needs just under 2 cubic yards, since one yard covers about 162 square feet. If you want the fuller 3 inch depth for better coverage, plan closer to 2.75 cubic yards.

Answer

What time of year should I install landscape rock here?

Anytime the ground isn't frozen or saturated works, but late spring after the last frost around April 5 gives you dry-ish soil to grade properly before laying fabric. Avoid installing right after a heavy rain, since wet silt loam gets slick and hard to work with a shovel.

Answer

Will the delivery truck be able to reach my driveway?

Most residential driveways and street access work fine, but Bellingham's older neighborhoods can have narrow lanes or steep grades near the hillside areas. Let us know at checkout if your access is tight and we'll figure out the best drop spot before the truck arrives.

Answer

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

Rock is the better call there. It won't wash away or mat down under concentrated runoff the way mulch can, and it won't need replacing every year or two. Mulch is better suited to planting beds where you want organic matter breaking down into the soil, not high-flow drainage zones.
