The short version
We deliver across south DFW in three zones, and the fee is $95, $135 or $185 depending on your ZIP. If your ZIP isn't on the list below, call us at 817-765-1655 and we'll tell you honestly whether we can get a truck there. In-stock mulch, rock, soil and bagged goods ordered by 10 AM go out the same day.
The three zones
Here's the whole list. If your ZIP is on it, you're covered and you'll see the fee at checkout before you pay.
| Zone | Delivery fee | ZIP codes |
|---|---|---|
| Zone 1 | $95 | Crowley 76036, Burleson 76028, Rendon 76140, Forest Hill 76119, south Fort Worth 76123 |
| Zone 2 | $135 | Kennedale 76060, Mansfield 76063, Arlington 76001, Joshua 76058, Alvarado 76009 |
| Zone 3 | $185 | Cleburne 76031 |
That's one fee per delivery, set by your zone. You don't pay more because you ordered rock instead of mulch. The full fee shows at checkout, no surprises after the fact.
The quickest way to check is the ZIP delivery checker on the homepage. Type your ZIP in and it'll tell you your zone and fee in a second.
My ZIP isn't on the list. Now what?
We get this call a lot, from all over the Metroplex. Here's the honest answer: if your ZIP isn't in that table, it's outside our standard zones.
That doesn't always mean no. Call 817-765-1655 and tell us your ZIP and what you're ordering. Sometimes we can work out a delivery by phone quote, depending on the load and where the trucks are running that day. Sometimes we can't, and we'd rather tell you that up front than take your order and leave you waiting.
What we won't do is promise you an outside-area delivery before we've talked. So please don't order online for a ZIP that's not on the list and hope it works out. Call first.
Can you ship rock or sod to another state?
No. We're a local delivery outfit. Our own trucks run south DFW, and that's it. We don't ship freight, we don't ship pallets across state lines, and we don't mail bags of anything.
Honestly, you wouldn't want us to. Rock and soil are heavy and cheap per ton, so freight costs would blow way past the price of the material. Your best bet out of state is a local landscape supply yard near you.
When can I get it?
Same-day: In-stock bagged product and bulk aggregates (mulch, rock and gravel, soil and compost, hardscape and accessories) ordered by 10:00 AM go out the same day. Order after 10 AM and it goes on the next business day.
Sod is different. It's cut fresh from our partner farms for your delivery, so we need 24 to 48 hours notice. If you want to lay sod on a Saturday, get your order in by Thursday. Sod comes by the pallet, 450 square feet each. If you're just patching a spot, we sell Tifway 419 Bermuda by the square yard too.
Hours:
| Day | Hours |
|---|---|
| Monday to Friday | 6 AM to 5 PM |
| Saturday | 7 AM to 2 PM |
| Sunday | Closed |
So yes, we deliver on Saturday. Just keep in mind the day's shorter, so if you want same-day on a Saturday, beat that 10 AM cutoff.
Help the truck get to your spot
Most delivery headaches aren't about the ZIP. They're about the last fifty feet. Here's what we tell people before their first load:
- Pick the dump spot ahead of time. Have someone home, or mark the spot clearly. A tarp or a couple of cones works fine.
- Clear the path. Move cars, watch for low branches, and think about soft ground. A loaded dump truck on a wet lawn will leave ruts you'll be fixing all summer.
- Think about what's underground. Sprinkler lines, dog fence wire and septic lids don't like a loaded truck rolling over them. We're not on the hook for those if we dump where you tell us to.
- Not sure? Go curbside. If you're nervous about your driveway or yard, mark the curb and we'll dump there. Then you wheelbarrow it in on your own time.
- HOA, gate code or time window? Put it in the special instructions box at checkout. Our drivers read it.
If we show up and can't deliver safely because the route's blocked or the spot isn't reachable, we'll reschedule for the next open window, and a re-delivery fee may apply. Five minutes of prep saves you that. The full rules are on our delivery policy page.
What to do next
- Check your ZIP with the delivery checker.
- Figure out how much you need with the calculators (mulch, rock, soil and sod), or trace your lawn with the satellite measuring tool.
- Shop the full product list and we'll bring it straight to your driveway.
