What Edward's Stone supplies

Stone yards carry flagstone, wall stone, boulders, river rock, cobbles and decorative gravel, usually sold by weight and frequently palletized for hardscape crews.

Thickness drives both coverage and price. Patio flagstone is typically 1"–1½"; anything thinner risks cracking underfoot without a mortar bed. Wall stone is sold by the ton with coverage depending on the face height you are building.

Full-line landscape supply yards stock soil, mulch, decorative stone, boulders, pavers, edging and often sod under one roof. That matters when a project needs several materials, because combining them into a single delivery avoids paying separate trip charges to multiple suppliers.

Because Edward's Stone carries several material lines, it is often possible to combine an order across products — soil, mulch and stone on one truck — rather than paying separate delivery charges to two or three different yards.

How much material you need

Stone is sold by the ton. Natural stone runs roughly 150 lbs per cubic foot, so a single pallet can approach 1½ tons.

As a rough guide: 1 ton covers about 80–120 sq ft at 1½ in flag; 3 tons covers about 240–360 sq ft at 1½ in flag; 1 ton covers about 15–20 face ft at wall stone.

Have length, width and target depth ready when you phone. Yard staff convert those into tons far more reliably than a generic online calculator, and they know how their own material settles.

Ordering and delivery

Ask about delivery minimums and trip charges up front — for smaller orders these often matter more to the final bill than the headline per-ton price.

Check where the truck can actually dump. Tandem trucks need overhead clearance and firm ground, and most drivers will not reverse across a soft lawn or a new driveway. If access is tight, ask whether they run a smaller truck or can leave the load at the kerb.

Pricing for bulk material is rarely published in full, since it moves with stock and season. The business website may list current products, but a phone call will get you a firm delivered number faster.

Best time to buy in Colorado

In Colorado, the buying window is compressed. Yards get busiest from the first thaw through early June, and again briefly in autumn. Ordering stone in early spring often means waiting in a queue and paying peak rates, so booking delivery before the rush — or in late autumn for spring work — usually gets both a better price and a firmer delivery date. Many yards in colder states reduce hours or close outright through deep winter, so confirm seasonal availability before planning a January or February project.

Bulk material pricing is intensely local. Trucking is a large share of the delivered cost, which is why a nearby yard usually beats a cheaper one further out once the full quote lands.
