One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch install depth, or less if you go to the fuller 3 inch depth recommended for high traffic or slope areas. Measure your bed square footage first, then decide on depth based on how much weed suppression and fabric coverage you want. Most West Jordan front yard beds run between 2 and 5 cubic yards depending on size.

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.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 10 feet by 10 feet at a few inches deep.

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

Landscaping fabric goes down first and is what keeps this a decade long install instead of a yearly chore, so budget for that before the rock arrives. Steel or aluminum edging keeps rock from migrating into the lawn during our winter freeze thaw cycles. If you are mixing rock beds with planting areas, a smaller load of garden soil or compost for those specific planting pockets pairs well without undermining the rock's low maintenance purpose.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

West Jordan's clay soil holds moisture right at the surface, so grade your bed with a slight slope away from foundations before laying fabric. Skipping this step traps water under the rock during spring melt and you will see it pool right at the base of your house. A few inches of fall over 10 feet is enough, and it is far easier to correct with a rake now than after the rock is down.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The most common mistake we see is skipping fabric to save money, then fighting weeds pushing through clay soil within two seasons. Alkaline clay here is compacted enough that weeds still find a way up through bare rock. Lay a woven landscape fabric, overlap seams by at least 6 inches, and pin it every few feet so it does not shift when you spread rock on top.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your full estimated quantity in one delivery rather than topping off later, rock color and screen size can vary slightly between batches even from the same source. If your project spans multiple beds, spread rock from the same pile across all areas rather than finishing one bed before opening a new batch, it keeps the color consistent across your whole yard.

Decorative Stone in West Jordan

West Jordan sits on alkaline clay that drains slow and compacts hard, which is exactly why rock outperforms organic mulch here for foundation beds and downspout areas. At 4330 feet with a growing season running roughly April 25 to October 25, you get freeze thaw cycles every winter that heave loose gravel and shift edging if it is not set right. Rock laid over fabric shrugs off that movement and does not wash out the way bark does during spring melt. Around Gardner Village and older established yards in this zone 7a city, you will see plenty of rock beds used specifically because they do not need yearly topping off.

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

Will landscape rock work well with West Jordan's clay soil?

Yes, rock actually performs better than organic mulch on alkaline clay because it does not break down or add to compaction over time. The clay's poor drainage is managed by grading the bed properly before install, not by the rock itself. Once fabric and rock are down, the surface sheds water instead of holding it against your foundation.

Answer

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

At the standard 2 inch depth, one cubic yard covers about 162 square feet, so a 300 square foot bed needs roughly 2 cubic yards. Going to 3 inches for better coverage or a high traffic path drops that coverage closer to 110 square feet per yard. Measure your actual bed footprint first and we can help you settle on a number.

Answer

When is the best time to install rock in West Jordan?

Late spring after the last frost around April 25 or early fall before the first frost around October 25 are both solid windows, since the ground is workable and not frozen. Avoid installing right during winter freeze thaw cycles, since frozen or waterlogged clay makes proper grading difficult. Rock itself has no seasonal shelf life once delivered.

Answer

Where will the rock be dropped and how do I move it to my beds?

We place the load at a driveway or curb spot you choose at checkout, we do not carry material into the yard itself. Plan a clear wheelbarrow path from that drop point to your beds before delivery day, especially if you have narrow side gates or steps to navigate.

Answer

Should I choose landscape rock or bark mulch for my beds?

Choose rock if you want a one time install with no annual refresh, especially for foundation beds and downspout areas where organic mulch tends to wash out. Choose bark if you are planting heavily and want organic matter feeding the soil over time. Many West Jordan yards use rock near the house and mulch further out in planting beds.
