I went to all rock and no mulch a few years ago and am SOOOO happy we made the investment. Tracy's Sand and Gravel is where I got ours as well. Got heavy enough I could use the blower/vac on it.


Only real maintenance is the rubber chips under the swing set/play area in the back yard.

Will be buying more next year to do a few other spots, just glad I don't have to buy that cypress mulch anymore...
