Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

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 your depth, and order in full cubic yard increments since this is sold by the yard, not the bag. Most Newnan front beds along a foundation run somewhere between 2 and 5 cubic yards, but odd-shaped beds around trees or downspouts should be measured section by section.

Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!

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.
Landscape fabric underneath is what makes rock a decade-long install instead of a weed patch by next summer, so it's worth ordering alongside your stone. Steel or aluminum edging keeps clay soil from creeping into the rock bed after heavy rain. If you're mixing rock with planted areas, a load of soil or compost for those beds keeps the two systems from fighting each other.

Newnan's red clay holds water right at the surface after storms, so grade your rock bed with a slight slope away from the house before you lay fabric. If the bed sits flat or dips toward the foundation, rock just becomes a decorative way to pond water against your brick. A couple inches of fall over a few feet is enough, and it's much easier to fix before the rock goes down than after.
The biggest mistake we see is skipping fabric to save a little money, then fighting johnsongrass and clay-loving weeds pushing through rock within a season. Clay soil here holds weed seed well, and once it roots under rock it's a pain to pull without disturbing the whole bed. Fabric first, rock on top, and you're looking at a install that holds for a decade instead of a redo next spring.
Rock pairs oddly well with mulch on the same property, since you can use rock in high-traffic or foundation zones and mulch in planting beds that actually need organic matter feeding the soil. This splits your budget sensibly instead of covering everything in stone, which looks flat and costs more up front than most people expect for larger yards.
Newnan's red clay compacts hard and drains slowly, which makes it a rough base for plantings but a fine base for rock once you've got fabric down. In neighborhoods built around the City of Homes, a lot of front yards run partial shade under mature trees, and rock beds cut down on the mowing and edging headaches clay grass creates. With clay holding water near foundations, a rock border around downspouts gives runoff somewhere to go without washing out mulch every storm. It also holds up fine through zone 8a winters, no freeze heave to worry about like you'd get further north.
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 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.
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.
