Easy to order, great service, and great product. We enjoy the final look of a very neglected beds we inherited!

One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, which is the standard install depth for most residential beds. For a slightly heavier 3 inch application, figure closer to 108 square feet per yard. Measure your bed's square footage first, then decide between the thinner or thicker depth based on how much foot traffic or erosion the area sees.

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.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

Landscaping fabric underneath is what makes this a decade long groundcover instead of a weed patch by next summer. Edging, whether steel, poly, or stone, keeps the rock from migrating into the lawn during heavy rain. Some Waldwick customers pair rock beds with a strip of mulch further from the foundation where they still want plantings that need organic matter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Before spreading rock over fabric, rake the sandy loam smooth and tamp it down first. Waldwick's soil shifts more than clay soils do, so an uneven base telegraphs through the fabric within a season and creates low spots where water and leaves collect. Spend the extra twenty minutes grading the bed before the fabric goes down, it's the difference between a bed that looks the same in five years and one that needs regrading.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The biggest mistake we see locally is skipping fabric to save a step, then fighting weeds pushing through within a year because sandy loam lets roots establish fast even under a few inches of stone. Fabric is not optional if you want this to be the one time install it's supposed to be. Budget the fabric into your project from the start rather than treating it as an add-on.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

If you're doing rock near downspouts, oversize that section slightly beyond the drip line since Waldwick's fall leaf load off maple and oak canopy tends to concentrate water flow right where gutters discharge. A wider rock apron there prevents the sandy loam from washing out a channel each spring thaw, saving you a repair trip later.

Decorative Stone in Waldwick

Waldwick's sandy loam drains quickly, which is good news for rock beds since you rarely deal with standing water pooling on top of the stone. With zone 7a winters and a first frost around Oct 23, freeze thaw cycles can shift loose stone over fabric if the base isn't set right the first time. Homeowners here tend to use rock along foundations and downspouts where mulch would wash out during spring runoff. It's also common near the railroad corridor properties where low maintenance beds are the practical choice given smaller yard footprints.

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 Waldwick's soil type?

Yes, sandy loam drains fast enough that rock beds rarely have drainage problems, which is one reason it's a popular choice here. The main thing to manage is fabric installation, since this soil type lets weeds root through gaps quickly if the fabric isn't overlapped and pinned properly.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need for a 200 square foot bed?

At the standard 2 inch depth, one cubic yard covers about 162 square feet, so a 200 square foot bed needs a bit over 1.2 cubic yards. Most people round up to 1.5 yards to account for uneven ground and edging losses.

Answer

When is the best time to install rock beds in Waldwick?

Late spring through early fall works well, ideally before the first frost around Oct 23 so the ground isn't frozen when you're grading and setting fabric. Avoid installing right after heavy rain since sandy loam gets soft and hard to compact evenly.

Answer

Can you deliver if my driveway is narrow or on a slope?

In most cases yes, our drivers place the load as close to your project area as the truck can safely reach. Let us know about tight access or slopes when you schedule so we can plan the drop spot, delivery timing itself is confirmed at checkout.

Answer

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

Rock is generally the better call right against foundations since it doesn't hold moisture against siding the way mulch can, and it's a one time install rather than an annual refresh. Mulch still makes sense further out where you have plants that benefit from organic matter breaking down into the soil.
