Our neighbors to the east had rubber mulch in Emmalee Villlas. It would wash out into and down the street in a heavy rain. Methinks there must be varying grades of rubber mulch because some replies here state that their rubber mulch doesn't wash away.

Here in Maine we have massive beds around our dwelling. We have to buy 10 cubic yards just to refresh the mulch every 3-4 years or so. It is a lot of work and costs over $30/yd.

A high quality rubber mulch that stays put and doesn't smell seems like a good investment.
