At the standard 2 to 3 inch install depth, one cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at the 2 inch mark, less at 3 inches. Measure your bed length and width, decide your depth, and order by the cubic yard rather than guessing bags. Most front yard beds in Fort Worth run somewhere between 2 and 6 cubic yards depending on square footage.

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.

A ton is approximately 2,000 pounds. Coverage varies by stone type and depth, but as a general guideline, one ton covers roughly 80-100 square feet at 2 inches deep.

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 underneath is what makes rock a decade-long install instead of a weed bed by next spring. Steel or paver edging keeps it from migrating into the lawn or driveway, and a few well-placed boulders or larger stones add visual weight without extra maintenance. None of it is required, but it's what most Fort Worth jobs end up using together.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Fort Worth's clay soil, skip skipping the fabric. Without a barrier, clay works rock down into the ground over a year or two, and you'll be topping it off sooner than you think. Lay heavy landscape fabric, overlap seams by several inches, and pin it before the rock goes down. This one step is what separates a permanent install from a five-year redo.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The biggest mistake we see locally is installing rock right before oak or pecan leaf drop without a plan for it. Rock traps leaves instead of letting them compost into soil like mulch does. Plan on blowing or raking beds clean a couple times through fall, especially near mature trees, or the rock bed turns into a leaf bed by December.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Buy the full quantity in one delivery instead of phasing it in over separate trips. Rock from different production runs can vary slightly in color and size, and matching a partial order later is harder than it sounds. One cubic yard delivery also means one clean spot to unload rather than repeat driveway drop-offs.

Decorative Stone in Fort Worth

Fort Worth's clay and sandy soil mix drains unevenly, and landscape rock over fabric solves the drainage headache around foundations and downspouts without adding organic material that clay soil can't absorb anyway. With summers that push hard and heavy, sudden rain, rock stays put where mulch floats or washes toward the street. It's also a natural fit for the low-water, low-maintenance look common around Cowtown's newer builds and ranch-style properties near the Stockyards. Once it's down, it's down, no annual refresh needed like mulch.

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 well in Fort Worth's clay soil?

Yes, rock actually performs better than organic mulch in clay soil because it doesn't need to break down or feed the ground. Installed over fabric, it sits on top of the clay instead of fighting it, which helps with the drainage issues clay soil causes around foundations and low spots.

Answer

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

At the standard 2 inch depth, one cubic yard covers about 162 square feet, so a 300 square foot bed needs close to 2 cubic yards. Going to 3 inches deep will use more, plan for roughly 2.5 to 3 cubic yards if you want the thicker install.

Answer

What time of year should I install landscape rock in Fort Worth?

Anytime works since rock isn't temperature sensitive like mulch, but many people install before the last frost in mid March or after the first frost in mid November to avoid working beds during peak growing season. Since it's a one time install, timing is about your convenience, not the plant calendar.

Answer

Where will the delivery truck place the rock?

The load gets placed in your driveway or another accessible spot you specify, delivery is scheduled at checkout so you'll know the window ahead of time. Make sure the drop zone is clear of cars, low branches, and anything that would block a loaded truck.

Answer

Should I choose rock or mulch for my front beds?

Rock makes sense for foundation lines, downspouts, and beds where you want a one time install with no annual refresh. Mulch is better if you're planting things that want organic matter feeding the soil. Many Fort Worth yards use both, rock near the house and mulch farther out in planting beds.
