At the standard 2 to 3 inch install depth, one cubic yard of landscape rock covers roughly 162 square feet at the shallow end of that range. Measure your bed length by width, decide whether you want a 2 inch or 3 inch depth, and that tells you how many cubic yards to order. Most Southaven foundation beds and downspout aprons run smaller than people expect, so measure before you guess.

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.

Landscaping fabric underneath is what keeps this a decade-long install instead of a weed patch by next summer. Edging, whether steel or paver, keeps the rock from migrating into the lawn during hard rain. A lot of Southaven customers pair rock beds near the house with mulch further out in planting areas that actually need organic matter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

In Southaven's silt loam, water tends to sheet across the surface before it soaks in, so grade your bed with a slight slope away from the foundation before you lay fabric and rock. Skipping this step means rock beds near downspouts end up holding standing water after the heavier spring storms, which erodes the fabric edges over a couple seasons and lets weeds punch through where the barrier failed.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The most common mistake with rock beds here is skipping the fabric barrier to save time. Without it, silt loam works its way up through the stone within a year or two, especially after freeze thaw cycles between the Nov 15 first frost and the Mar 20 last frost. Once soil mixes into the rock layer, leaves and seeds take hold and the bed starts looking like a weed patch instead of a clean groundcover.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Because this is a one time install rather than an annual refresh like mulch, it pays to size the order right the first time rather than ordering light and doing a second delivery later. Measure every bed you plan to convert this year, even ones you are not starting immediately, and order the full amount in one delivery to avoid mismatched rock color from a different batch down the road.

Decorative Stone in Southaven

Southaven's silt loam holds water longer than sandy soil, and that means beds against foundations and downspouts benefit from a material that will not compact or rot when it stays damp. Rock does not feed the soil the way mulch does, but in this climate that is often the point, since it will not need replacing after a wet zone 7b winter. It works well laid over fabric near the house where drainage runs heavy after storms. People here use it most around foundations, downspout aprons, and low maintenance front beds where they do not want to fuss with organic material breaking down.

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

Does landscape rock work well with Southaven's clay heavy soil?

Yes, and it actually performs better than mulch in wetter spots since it will not compact or break down when the silt loam stays saturated after storms. Just install it over fabric so soil does not migrate up into the stone over time. It is a solid choice for foundation beds and downspout aprons where drainage is inconsistent.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need for a typical front bed?

One cubic yard covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, so a 300 square foot bed needs roughly 2 cubic yards at that depth, or closer to 3 if you go to 3 inches. Measure your bed area first, then decide on depth based on whether it sees foot traffic.

Answer

When is the best time to install rock in Southaven?

Anytime outside of the wettest stretches works, but many people install before the Nov 15 first frost or after the Mar 20 last frost so the ground is workable and not frozen or saturated. Since this is a one time install, timing matters less than getting the fabric and grading right.

Answer

Where will the delivery truck place the rock?

You choose the drop spot when you schedule delivery at checkout, and the truck places the load there on delivery day. Make sure there is clear access for a large truck, and mark the exact spot if it is close to a fence, foundation, or downspout so the crew knows where to unload.

Answer

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

Rock is generally the better call right against foundations and downspouts since it will not hold moisture against siding the way mulch can, and it is a one time install rather than something you refresh yearly. Mulch still makes sense further out in beds where plants benefit from organic matter breaking down into the silt loam.
