A Riverside garden can bring together several materials without losing its sense of place. Compare a DG route, a gravel bed, a pebble detail, and a natural-stone accent with Rio Stone Building Materials Inc. at our Banning yard.
Visit the Banning yard. Plan a pickup. Ask about delivery. Start your way.

Heard about us from a neighbor?
Riverside Public Utilities’ Goeske demonstration garden uses pocket gardens to show different landscape approaches. Take that idea into a material plan: give the entrance, path, planted bed, and seating corner their own role. A few coordinated colors can connect them, while separate measurements keep a small pebble accent from being priced as though it covers the whole yard.

Build your Riverside garden one pocket at a time
Compare DG Gold with nearby paving and the planned bed rock. Measure the connecting route and confirm its width and finish with your installer.
02Compare California Gold and Crescent Brown alongside the plants and walls. List the separate bed areas before totaling the quantity for that material.
03Compare Rainbow Pebble and Black Beach Pebble for a small pot or seating accent. Set a boundary and measure only the area assigned to pebbles.
04Choose a boulder in person for one garden pocket. Bring a placement photo and coordinate its handling before the surrounding materials go in.
Project ideas are a starting point, not an installation specification. Your site, grade, compaction, and installation method affect the right material and quantity.
Use these local resources to check landscape requirements before choosing your material list. The yard can help with materials and quantities; the responsible agency confirms approvals and program eligibility.

Volume estimate
Enter the area and depth. The result is an estimate for planning a quote.
Your estimate
We will calculate square feet and cubic yards as you type.
Square feet × depth (in.) ÷ 324
Estimate only. Compaction, grade, material density, site conditions, waste and installation method can change the amount required. Delivery, tax and other fees are not included.
For local landscapers & contractors
For a Riverside design with several garden pockets, label the zones on a sketch and attach a material schedule. Keep DG, gravel, pebbles, and individual stones on separate lines with the relevant sale units. Share the placement order and unloading plan with the Banning yard before arranging pickup or requesting a delivery quote.

Draw a boundary for each material and measure it separately. Use a calculator estimate for the DG or gravel area at the intended depth, then confirm the pebble quantity in its actual sale unit. The yard can review the list before you combine the project cost.
