Choose based on function first: drainage and stability needs, appearance, and how the surface will be used. For example, prioritize drainage for paths and driveways, finer materials for leveling beds, and decorative mixes for landscaping. If you’re unsure, use our material quiz or contact our team for guidance.

Measure the area in square feet and decide the desired depth in inches, then convert to cubic yards (area x depth ÷ 324). Our online material calculator does this automatically and recommends tonnage based on typical material density. When in doubt, order slightly more to allow for compaction and grading.

Buying in bulk is usually cheaper per unit because you avoid bagging and retailer handling costs, and you can order only what you need. Savings depend on delivery distance and order size—longer hauls can increase cost. For most landscaping and contractor projects, bulk delivery offers better value than many bags.

Bulk orders reduce packaging waste and usually mean fewer truck trips compared with multiple bag purchases. Sourcing regionally cuts transport distance, lowering fuel use and emissions. Ordering the right quantity also reduces leftover waste and the need for disposal.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries arrive by contracted dump trucks (often tri-axle) and are scheduled through our checkout calendar. Exact timing depends on supplier and truck routing, so expect a delivery window rather than an exact time.

Drivers may be able to perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and only if it can be done safely. You can request spreading at checkout, but it is not guaranteed and the driver will assess conditions on arrival. Plan for some manual raking and final grading after delivery.

Clear a wide, direct access path for the truck and remove low branches, vehicles, and obstacles. Mark the preferred drop location with flags or stakes and ensure the ground can support a heavy truck. If delivery must be on a public street or requires permits, arrange those in advance and note special instructions at checkout.

A common rule of thumb is to apply mulch and topdressing in thin, even layers—generally 2 to 4 inches—keeping material away from plant stems and trunks. For new planting beds, add and mix topsoil in 4 to 6 inch lifts as needed. Adjust depth based on plant type and local growing conditions, and consult local nursery guidance if uncertain.

Natural materials vary by source, so color and texture may differ from photos; regional sourcing is noted for this reason. Contact our team as soon as possible to request changes—modifications are easier before dispatch but not always possible. If there’s an issue after delivery, contact customer service promptly so we can work toward a satisfactory solution in line with our policies.
