Landscaping rocks are seldom found across U.S. neighborhoods, but these items can completely transform a property and provide all sorts of monetary benefits. 


Certain landscaping projects, when done correctly, can offer a very high return on investment (ROI) and even increase property resale value by as much as 15%. Landscaping rocks are fantastic items for improving the look and feel of a property, as well as deliver some slight increases to a home’s resale value. 


According to a 2017 Houzz Landscape Trends study, approximately 38% of homeowners planning to upgrade their landscape’s driveways, pathways, patios, and terraces are using crushed gravel or other types of rockery rocks. 


These rockery rocks come in all shapes and sizes and can be used for dozens of property improvement projects. River rock, for example, is an extremely popular type of landscaping rock material. It is quite smooth and typically comes in one to two inches in diameter. Cobble rock, on the other hand, are much larger and can work great as a border to a large flower bed or planting strip. 


Understanding the differences between all these rockery rocks, as well as other landscaping materials can be quite tricky, unfortunately. Thankfully, there are organizations out there that focus on not only providing you with the information you need for your next property improvement project, but can deliver the actual materials as well. 


By working with experienced concrete hauling services, you won’t even have to pickup and handle these heavy bags of rockery rocks yourself. You can have the exact amount of landscaping material delivered right to your front yard. Whether you need bags of crushed gravel for a small garden or larger bench, column, or placement rocks, you won’t have to struggle lifting and getting these materials into your car — simply place your order and await the timely delivery right to your front door.
