    I used Mulch Mound to have 3 cubic yards of garden soil delivered. The process was easy and I love that I didn't have to call anyone. I placed my order online, picked my delivery date, laid out my tarp and the dirt was delivered. My delivery had to be pushed back, but I was kept informed via text, which was great. So why not 5 stars? The description of garden soil on the website is "A balanced mix of topsoil and organic amendments ready for raised beds, flower gardens, and new planting areas. Good drainage, solid nutrients, easy to work with." What I got was more like fill dirt. It had a lot of gravel, a lot of clay, and random trash mixed in. I didn't test the soil to see if it actually had "amendments" because I already have compost and alpaca manure ready to add, but if I'd known the quality of the dirt was going to be the same as the bagged dirt I bought last year, I probably would have gotten 2 yards of top soil and a yard of leaf compost for better quality, especially since the leaf compost is cheaper. Photo of my mountain of dirt and just some of the trash I found in it.

    Measure your area in feet and convert your depth to a decimal, so three inches is 0.25 and four inches is 0.33. Divide the total cubic feet by 27 to get yards. Order about ten percent extra for gravel that gets compacted and for the settling that happens on Smithfield's sloped lots.

    Complete Your Outdoor Stone Project

    Add commercial grade weed fabric, steel edging to hold the stone line clean, and a few yards of soil or compost for the planting pockets you leave in a waterwise design. Larger boulders anchor the layout and break up flat gravel fields.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Handle your perennial weeds before a single rock goes down. Field bindweed and quackgrass are everywhere in Cache Valley and both will push straight through fabric and two inches of gravel. Treat them in late summer or early fall when they move nutrients to the roots, wait for a full kill, then install. Skipping this step means tearing out finished rock a year later, which nobody wants to do twice.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Compact base rock in two inch lifts, wetting each lift lightly as you go. Smithfield's dry air pulls moisture out of road base fast, and dry fines will not lock together no matter how many passes you make with the plate compactor. Damp, layered, and properly compacted base is what carries a patio through a Zone 6a winter of repeated freezing and thawing without heaving or settling at the edges.

    Mulch Mound Pro Tip

    Use stone size to match wind and slope. The canyon winds that come out of Smithfield Canyon will scatter light chips across a walkway, and spring runoff moves small gravel downhill on bench lots. Go with one inch or larger material on exposed or sloped ground, and save the fine three eighths inch chips for flat, sheltered areas where they will stay exactly where you raked them.

    The Unique Landscape of Smithfield

    Water is the limiting resource in Smithfield, where 19 inches of annual precipitation puts real pressure on summer irrigation. Decorative rock and gravel let you shrink watered turf without giving up curb appeal, which is why waterwise designs keep spreading through Cache Valley neighborhoods. Stone also solves the drainage and erosion problems common on Smithfield's bench lots, where spring snowmelt runs downhill fast and cuts channels through bare beds. Unlike mulch, gravel does not blow away in the canyon winds that funnel out of Smithfield Canyon, and it does not need replacing every few years. Road base and gravel are the working foundation under any patio, walkway, or driveway that has to survive Zone 6a freeze and thaw. Choose the right stone once and it stays put for decades.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Click a question to see the answer

    Answer

    How deep should decorative rock go in a Smithfield front yard?

    Two to three inches over quality landscape fabric is the standard here. Smaller three eighths inch material can go at two inches, but larger river rock needs the full three to cover the ground and block light. Anything thinner lets Cache Valley weeds find sun and push right through by midsummer.

    Answer

    Will rock make my yard too hot for my plants?

    It can. Stone stores heat, and with Smithfield summer highs regularly in the 90s a large rock field radiates well into the evening. Keep gravel away from foundations and windows on the south and west sides, and choose heat tolerant plants like rabbitbrush, yarrow, and ornamental grasses within rocked areas rather than shade lovers.

    Answer

    What do I need under a patio or paver walkway at this elevation?

    Excavate and place four to six inches of compacted three quarter inch road base, then a one inch bedding layer of sand or fine chips. Smithfield goes through dozens of freeze and thaw cycles between October and May, and that compacted base is the only thing that keeps pavers from heaving. Compact in two inch lifts, not all at once.

    Answer

    How do I stop weeds from coming up through my gravel?

    Kill existing perennial weeds first, especially bindweed and quackgrass, since they will grow through anything. Lay commercial grade woven fabric, not the thin plastic sheeting, then place at least two inches of stone. Expect to pull a few volunteers each year anyway, because Smithfield wind drops seed and dust on top of the rock where new weeds can root.

    Answer

    How much does a cubic yard of gravel weigh, and can my driveway handle it?

    Most gravel and road base runs about 2,600 to 3,000 pounds per cubic yard, so a five yard load is well over seven tons. Standard residential concrete in Smithfield handles a truck fine, but older or cracked driveways and any surface over a window well should be avoided. We can drop on a tarp in the yard if you prefer.

    Answer

    Is rock a good way to handle the runoff coming off my slope?

    Yes. Smithfield's bench lots shed a lot of water during spring melt and after summer thunderstorms. A gravel filled swale or a cobble lined channel slows the flow and lets it soak into the silt loam instead of cutting a trench through your beds. Use three to six inch cobble for real flow and pin fabric underneath.

    Answer

    How many cubic yards do I need for a gravel parking pad?

    Multiply length by width in feet, multiply by depth in feet, then divide by 27. A 20 by 20 pad at four inches works out to about five cubic yards. Add ten percent for compaction, because road base loses volume when you run a plate compactor over it.
