Frequently Asked Questions

How deep should my rubber mulch be?

1-2 inches depth is enough rubber mulch for landscaping and gardening needs. American Society for Testing Materials requires a depth of 3-6 inches to meet playground safety standards. This will sufficiently cushion falls from 6-12 feet. Standard residential playsets require a depth of 3 inches while commercial playgrounds with higher equipment require 4-6 inches.
