How Much Landscape Rock Do I Need?
One cubic yard covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, which is the standard install for most beds and groundcover areas. Going to 3 inches for heavier foot traffic or slope stabilization drops coverage to around 108 square feet per yard, so measure your bed first and decide on depth before ordering. Sold strictly by the cubic yard, so round up rather than short yourself on a one time install.

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.
Complete Your Outdoor Project
Landscape fabric underneath is what makes this a decade-long install instead of a weed patch in two years, so it is worth doing before the rock goes down. Steel or aluminum edging keeps rock out of the lawn and out of the sandy loam beds where it would otherwise migrate. Some customers pair a rock border with mulch in the planting beds themselves, since rock does not feed soil the way organic mulch does.

Areas we deliver landscape rock in Lake Grove, New York
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Sandy loam drains fast, but it also lets fabric edges lift over time if they are not pinned well. Use enough landscape staples, especially along downspout runs where water pressure is highest during spring thaw. Skimping on staples here is the number one reason rock beds in this soil type shift and expose bare fabric within a year or two.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Rock traps leaves instead of breaking them down, and Lake Grove has plenty of deciduous cover nearby First Congregational Church and older residential streets. Plan on blowing or raking beds clean each fall before leaf drop settles into the stone, otherwise you get a compost layer sitting on top of your rock that holds moisture and encourages weeds to root through the fabric.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Because this is a one time install and not a seasonal refresh, it pays to size the order right rather than round down. Combining a rock delivery with a mulch delivery for planting beds on the same trip is common here, since driveways in this area rarely have room for two separate deliveries without some coordination.
Decorative Stone in Lake Grove
Lake Grove sits on sandy loam, which drains fast and lets rock beds settle in cleanly without the pooling you get on clay soil. Zone 7b winters bring freeze thaw cycles from November through April, and rock does not heave or wash out the way mulch can when frost pushes through. Around here it shows up a lot near foundations and downspouts, since Long Island Village lots often deal with runoff off the roofline. Once it is down over fabric, it stays a finished look for years, not a spring chore.
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.
