One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, or a bit less if you go to 3 inches for better weed suppression. Measure your bed's length and width, decide on depth based on how much you want fabric hidden, and order in full cubic yards since this is not a material you want to run short on mid job. Most front yard bed refreshes in Marysville run in the 2 to 4 cubic yard range.

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 worth doing right the first time, since pulling rock back up to fix a bad fabric job is nobody's favorite Saturday. A lot of Marysville customers pair rock borders with bark mulch in the planting beds themselves, using rock for the low maintenance strips and mulch where they actually want plants to thrive. Edging material, whether steel or paver, keeps the two from migrating into each other over time.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Marysville's silt loam, water moves slowly through the ground, so if you are laying rock against a foundation, slope the bed slightly away from the house before you put fabric down. Rock itself won't stop water pooling against your siding, it just sits on top of whatever grading is already there. Fix the slope first, then rock becomes a real long term foundation guard instead of decoration sitting in a wet spot.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The most common mistake we see locally is skipping fabric maintenance. Leaves from the maples and alders that line a lot of Marysville streets settle into rock beds every fall and start to compost right on top of the fabric, which eventually lets weed seeds root in that thin soil layer. A quick blow out or rake in November and again in late winter keeps a rock bed looking like a one time install instead of a slow weed garden.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

If you are doing a large front yard conversion, it is often cheaper to buy one rock type in bulk and use it everywhere, borders and beds both, rather than mixing two decorative rocks that both need separate minimum orders. Save the visual variety for edging or a contrasting boulder instead. This also means one delivery truck instead of two trips charged separately.

Decorative Stone in Marysville

Marysville sits low, about 20 feet of elevation near the slough, and the silt loam soil here drains slowly, which means beds against the house or under downspouts stay soggy well into spring. Rock does not care. Laid over fabric it sheds that moisture instead of holding it against your siding, which mulch and bark cannot do. With our mild 8b winters and a frost season that runs late October to early April, rock also skips the freeze heave and rot cycle organic mulch goes through here. It is a common choice for foundation strips and low beds along downspouts around town for exactly that reason.

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

Will landscape rock work in my clay-heavy backyard bed near the slough?

Yes, rock actually performs better than mulch in slow-draining silt loam like ours near Ebey Slough, since it does not absorb water and rot the way organic mulch does. Just make sure the bed is graded so water moves away from structures, since rock sits on top of drainage problems rather than fixing them.

Answer

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

At the standard 2 inch depth, one cubic yard covers about 162 square feet, so a 300 square foot bed needs a little under 2 cubic yards. Most people round up to 2 yards, or to 3 to 4 yards if going with the deeper 3 inch depth for better long term coverage.

Answer

What is the best time of year to install rock in Marysville?

Late spring through summer is easiest, after the last frost around April 4 and before fall rains pick up, since dry ground makes fabric installation and grading much simpler. It can be installed any time our ground isn't frozen, but working in mud during the wet months slows the job down considerably.

Answer

Where will the delivery truck place the load?

We drop the material at a driveway, curb, or other hard surface spot you specify when you schedule at checkout. Make sure that area is clear and accessible, and if you need it moved further into the yard, plan on a wheelbarrow or have help lined up for moving day.

Answer

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

Rock is the better call around downspouts, since the concentrated water flow there tends to wash bark mulch out of place while rock stays put and sheds water instead of holding it. Save bark mulch for planting beds where you actually want organic matter feeding the soil over time.
