just be careful of what quote you get. You can get the 30lb bags of rubber mulch for 10.00 a bag, if you buy 20 or more bags they are 9.00 a bag from Brownes in Fruitland Park. Unlike rock, you do not need to pile up the rubber mulch 6 inches thick or more.. Had a neighbor get a quote and the cat wanted to make the rubber mulch like a foot thick so it sat above the curbing. now that might be expensive. but also depending on the rock you get, that would cost more. Had a friend got talked into doing Lava rock around the front of the house, 10 yards just to do the front. at 110.00 a yard that adds up. 1100 in rock for the front only. The rubber mulch only needs to be like 1-2 inches thick to look good. Then you can get some rock to blend in with it. Even get some big lime rock bouders,
dont spend more than you need to... I bought 30 bags of the Mocha Brown and it went around the house.
