How do I get my landscape stone?

We have different ways to get the landscape stone to its final place...your home and possible constructed! 

1. You can stop by our store anytime to purchase the landscape stone. This is done either by the pallet which means you purchase the stone as it comes off the pallet or you can hand pick the stone. By hand picking the stone, you can select each piece that fits your needs. When you pick the stone individually, there is an additional fee of 10 cents per pound. Regardless of the method you choose, we will load it into your vehicle for you.

2. If you prefer, we can deliver it to your home so you do not need to pick up. When folks choose this method, it is usually purchased by the pallet but can be hand picked too. The delivery charge vary and depend on where you live. When you are in the shopping cart, you will be prompted to select pick up in store or delivery. When you select the delivery option, it will ask for the zip code that the product will be delivered.

3. The best way is to have us do it all! We can install the landscape stone for you, a you need to do is just pick out what you want and let the professional installers handle it for you.  Please keep in mind that in-home quotes are only for installation projects not visits to provide material only quotes. Unfortunately it is cost prohibitive to offer in-home visits to help calculate how much stone you need for your project. But we do have a lot of information on our website with nice calculators that will help figure out how much and what materials you need. Or chat with us and even call us on the phone, we would love to help you figure out what the right natural stone is as well as how much you need!

How much do I need?

This is one of the most common questions we have and it is easy to figure out with our mulch calculator! This mulch is sold by volume (2 cubic foot bags or by the cubic yard), not by weight. If you provide input a little information to our mulch calculator, we will provide you with how much mulch you will need for your project. Simply get the width and length of the areas that you will be applying the mulch and input the information in our mulch calculator, then select your desired depth of mulch (most common depth is 2" for re-mulching existing beds and 4" for new landscape beds). The calculator will figure out how many bags or cubic yards you will need! Make sure you consider the existing plants in the area, you will not be applying mulch on top of them so minus some of the area out for that!
