If you have never shopped at one before, the term landscape supply yard might not mean much. Here is a plain explanation of what these businesses are and what sets them apart from a typical garden center or hardware store.
Bulk Materials Are the Main Focus
Unlike a garden center that mostly sells plants and small bagged products, a supply yard is built around bulk materials, stored in large outdoor piles and measured out by the cubic yard rather than sold off a shelf.
What You Can Typically Buy
Mulch in multiple colors and types, screened topsoil, garden soil blends, compost, sand, pea gravel, crushed stone, river rock, and decorative boulders are all common inventory at a landscape supply yard.
Bagged Products for Smaller Jobs
Most yards also stock bagged versions of popular materials for customers who need a smaller amount than a bulk order would provide, making them useful for touch-up work as well as larger projects.
Pickup or Delivery
Customers with a truck or trailer can often load bulk material themselves at the yard, while others can arrange delivery to their property, which is especially common for larger orders.
Who Shops at a Supply Yard
Homeowners tackling DIY projects, landscaping and construction contractors, property managers, and municipalities all commonly buy from landscape supply yards for ongoing material needs.
