One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, or a bit less if you go to the fuller 3 inch depth for better weed suppression. Measure your bed's length and width, multiply for square footage, then divide by 162 to get a rough yard count at standard depth. Round up slightly, since edges and low spots always eat more material than the flat math suggests.

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.

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

Most rock beds in this area go down over landscape fabric, so plan on picking that up along with edging to keep the stone from migrating into the lawn or driveway. A lot of customers also grab a load of soil or mulch at the same time for the planting beds nearby, since rock and organic beds often sit side by side in the same yard.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In San Angelo's clay loam, skip laying rock directly on bare soil. Fabric matters more here than in sandier regions because clay holds fine sediment that works its way up through gaps over a few wet seasons, burying your rock in mud from underneath. Lay fabric first, pin it well, then install your 2 to 3 inch layer on top. This keeps the stone looking clean for years instead of months.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The biggest mistake we see locally is installing rock right up against plants that need real soil contact. Rock traps heat and blocks organic matter from reaching roots, which stresses anything but the toughest xeriscape plants in our zone 8a summers. Keep rock for groundcover zones and foundation borders, and leave a mulch or bare soil ring around anything you actually want to grow.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Because this is a one time install rather than a seasonal refresh, it pays to order a little heavier than your calculator says rather than run short. A partial second delivery costs more in time and hassle than a slightly deeper bed does in material. Most customers who order once for a project never order rock again for that same bed.

Decorative Stone in San Angelo

San Angelo's clay loam sheds water fast when it rains hard and bakes hard the rest of the year, which makes organic mulch break down unevenly and need constant topping off. Rock does not care about that cycle. It sits on top of the clay, drains around foundations, and does not compact into the soil the way bark mulch can. A lot of yards here run rock beds along the house or downspouts specifically because the clay holds moisture at the base and rock keeps that area from turning to mud after a gully washer.

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

Answer

How long does landscaping rock actually last in San Angelo before it needs replacing?

Landscape rock is a one time install, not a seasonal product like mulch. Laid over fabric at 2 to 3 inches, it holds its look for a decade or more with no annual refresh. Our clay soil and dry climate do not break the stone down the way wet, acidic soils elsewhere can. Occasional raking to redistribute stone after heavy rain is about all it needs.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need for a bed along my house foundation?

Measure the length and width of the bed, multiply for square footage, then divide by 162 for a 2 inch depth or by about 108 for a fuller 3 inch depth. A typical 30 foot by 3 foot foundation bed runs close to 2 to 3 cubic yards depending on depth. Always round up a bit for uneven ground.

Answer

What time of year is best to install landscape rock here?

Anytime works, since rock is not weather dependent like planting is, but many people install between our last frost in mid March and first frost in early November so fabric adhesives and edging set without freezing. Avoiding the wettest weeks after a big rain also makes fabric installation over clay loam easier and cleaner.

Answer

Where will the rock be dropped and can your truck get into my neighborhood?

The load is placed on a hard, accessible surface like a driveway that you point out ahead of time, typically needing space about the size of a car. Delivery is scheduled at checkout rather than a fixed window, so you can plan around it. Let us know about narrow streets or low hanging branches when you order so the truck has a clear path in.

Answer

Should I use landscape rock or mulch around my downspouts?

Rock is the better call around downspouts and foundation runoff areas since it does not wash away or compact into mud the way mulch can on our clay loam. It handles heavy rain events without shifting much and does not need replacing after a hard summer storm. Save mulch for planting beds where you want the soil to actually benefit from organic breakdown.
