The website to order is super easy to use. Pick a mulch, date/time/driveway location of the delivery and that’s it. A few days later there was a nice mound of mulch in my driveway. Great service - just as promised.

One cubic yard of this sand covers about 324 square feet at a 1 inch depth, and most mortar or paver joint work only calls for a 1 to 2 inch layer, so a single yard often stretches further than people expect. Pool base projects usually run on the deeper end of that range. Measure your square footage first, then work backward from there before ordering by the yard.

Most jobs that call for this sand also need gravel or crushed base for compaction underneath, and edging to hold the paver field square once it is set. If you are mixing mortar on site, having a landscape sand or topsoil delivery scheduled separately for backfill work can save a second trip.
In Salina's silty clay loam, moisture from the ground can wick up into a sand base faster than in sandier soils, so if you're setting a paver bedding layer, let it dry out fully before compacting. Working it while damp leads to a spongy, uneven base once it settles. If you're mixing mortar, keep the sand covered and dry until you're ready to use it, since silty clay loam sites tend to hold ambient moisture in the air near ground level.
A common mistake on paver projects is using mason sand as the bedding layer under the pavers themselves. It is excellent for joints because it compacts uniformly, but as a bedding layer it can pump up through joints over time under freeze thaw cycles. Salina's winters routinely dip well below freezing before the Apr 15 last frost, so a clean chip stone base holds up better long term than sand alone.
If your project uses both mortar and joint fill, order the full quantity in one delivery rather than splitting it into two smaller runs. It is more efficient to store an extra tarped pile on site for a few weeks than to schedule a second delivery for a top off, especially heading into the fall when hardscape work tapers off before winter.
Salina sits on silty clay loam, which drains slowly and holds water after spring rains off the Smoky Hill River watershed. That kind of ground makes a stable, well drained base under pavers and patios matter more, not less. Most orders here go toward mortar for brick and stone work, paver joint fill, and small pool base projects rather than broad ground coverage. Because hardscape season in this zone runs spring through fall, timing a delivery around dry stretches keeps the sand workable instead of clumping.
Masonry sand is washed and finely screened, the right choice for mortar work, paver joints, and sandboxes. Fill sand is coarser and less processed, better suited to leveling, bedding pipe, and filling low spots.
For pavers, screed a 1 inch sand bed over a compacted base rather than using sand to fix deep grade problems. A thin, even bed locks pavers in place. A thick one shifts underfoot.
Slightly damp sand spreads, screeds, and compacts far more easily than bone dry sand, which just flows back into your screed lines. Lightly wetting the pile before you work it saves real effort.
