How Much Landscape Rock Do I Need?
One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, or a smaller area if you go to the fuller 3 inch depth that holds better against wind and heavy rain. Measure your bed's length and width, decide on depth based on how much foot traffic or slope you have, and order in whole cubic yards since rock is dropped and spread rather than bagged. Most front yard beds in this area run somewhere between 2 and 6 cubic yards depending on size.

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
Landscape fabric underneath is what makes rock a decade-long install instead of a five-year one, so it is worth adding if you do not already have it down. Edging material keeps rock from migrating into the lawn, especially useful on clay soil where beds tend to settle unevenly. Some customers pair a rock bed near the foundation with mulch further out in beds that have shrubs or perennials that actually want organic matter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Lay landscape fabric before the rock goes down, not after, and overlap seams by a few inches so clay soil underneath does not work its way up through gaps over time. In Wentzville's clay, skipping fabric means weeds root directly into the rock bed within a season or two, and once that happens you are pulling rock to fix it. The fabric is cheap compared to redoing the whole bed.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Rock beds trap fallen leaves instead of breaking them down, so plan on blowing or raking leaves out each fall before the Oct 22 frost, especially near trees. Left sitting, wet leaves mat down into the rock and create a layer that holds moisture against your fabric, which speeds up weed growth in the following spring.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Order slightly more than your calculated cubic yardage, since spreading rock evenly at 2 to 3 inches always uses a bit more material at bed edges and around curves than a flat square footage number suggests. It is a one-time install, so getting the depth right the first time matters more than saving a partial yard on the order.
Decorative Stone in Wentzville
Wentzville sits on heavy clay that holds water after the spring rains that come before the April 15 last frost, and that moisture works against loose organic mulch but not against stone. A lot of homes near Quail Ridge Park use rock beds along foundations and downspouts because the clay drains slow and rock does not break down or wash out. Zone 6b means freeze thaw cycles through winter, and rock over fabric does not heave or compact the way soil-based mulch can. It is a common choice for low-maintenance front yard beds where homeowners do not want to refresh material every season.
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.
