How much will you need?
Enter your measurements and we'll size the job in cubic feet and pallets — so you order exactly enough, with no guesswork and your delivered price up front.
How much do you need?
Enter your area any way you like — watch it draw to scale, then pick a color and ZIP to see your delivered price, right here.
Several beds, or a circle or triangle? Add each one and pick its shape — we total them, so you never add lengths and multiply wrong.
Already know the volume? We turn it straight into pallets.
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet.
Playground depth depends on your tallest equipment's fall height — 6″ is the common commercial starting point. We'll confirm your spec to ASTM F1292.
Covers 300 sq ft at 2″ — with a little to spare.
A tree planted for every pallet you order.
Curves, circles, triangles, beds that wander around the house — you can measure them all, accurately, right from your phone.
Snap a photo of the area with a tape measure — or a couple of known distances — in the shot.
Ask the AI on your phone (the free Claude app, ChatGPT, or Gemini): “What do I measure here to get the square footage?” It walks you through it.
Enter what it gives you above — or send us the photo and we'll size it for you.
No AI app yet? Claude is free at claude.ai. Measuring the right way means you order the exact amount — and never pay for mulch you don't need.
One pallet (75 cu ft) covers roughly:
| At this depth | It covers about | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 1 inch | 900 sq ft | Topping off an existing bed |
| 2 inches | 450 sq ft | Landscaping & flower beds |
| 3 inches | 300 sq ft | Residential playgrounds |
| 4 inches | 225 sq ft | Higher or taller playgrounds |
| 5 inches | 180 sq ft | Extra cushioning |
| 6 inches | 150 sq ft | Commercial playground requirements |
How it ships
Getting the depth right.
Landscaping & beds
About 2″ is plenty. Because rubber mulch doesn't break down, you don't need the thick layer wood mulch requires — and you won't be topping it off every year.
Playgrounds
Go deeper for fall protection. The right depth depends on your equipment's fall height — 6″ is a common starting point. Tell us your tallest structure and we'll confirm the spec to ASTM F1292. How fall-height testing works →
Odd-shaped areas
For circles or curves, estimate the area as a rectangle that roughly contains it — it's better to round up a little. Not sure? Send us your measurements and we'll size it for you.
Buying in bulk
Mulch ships as pallets of bags — 75 cubic feet each, delivered free, curbside, to the 48 contiguous states. Every bag holds 1.5 cubic feet, so two people can move a pallet by hand.
