> How do I prepare for a topsoil delivery?
You will want to clear the area for a delivery truck to get in and out of. Cars, boats, and Rvs need to be temporarily out of the way. Double check that there aren't low hanging wires, or branches. Customers will often put a blue tarp on the ground, as a target for the driver to discharge the load on. The ground needs to be flat and level. The driver will not cross your property line without a waiver signature.

Whats in Topsoil?
Sandy Loam and compost. The sandy loam portion is 75% naturally occurring sand, and 25% combination of clay and silt. The combination of all three makes "loam". The sand plays a role in sandy loam, it keeps the soil from becoming compacted, and it also provides drainage in our wet winters. The silt-clay combination in the loam reduces the "dryout" of the soil in the summer, and is a part of drainage process in the winter. The compost portion consists of yard and garden trimmings. Here is where the nutrients are. The topsoil does not have biosolids. Topsoil is the structure your plants anchor themselves to. All of the particle together, are the foundation for growing plants.

Ultimate Guide to Gravel, Aggregate, Rock, and Stone Mulch.
All of the above terms, refer to versatile, non-organic landscaping materials. Whether it is crushed rock fragments or uncrushed round stone, they provide a durable solution for drainage, paths, and beauty. There as many names for rock as there are names for the Puyallup fair
-
The Washington State Fair: The current official, corporate name.
-
The Puyallup Fair: What almost every local still calls it (and what it was named for over a century).
-
The Western Washington Fair: The formal name used for decades before the 2013 rebranding.
-
"The Puyallup": As in, "Are you going to The Puyallup?" (Used as a noun for the event itself).
-
The Valley Fair: A common historical shorthand used by older residents of Sumner and Orting.
-
The September Fair: Used by schools and businesses to distinguish it from the "Spring Fair."

Just saying.
Here are the primary problems you can solve using cobble rock:
1. Stopping Soil Erosion and Washouts
If you have a slope or a "low spot" where rain washes away your dirt or mulch every winter, cobbles are the solution.
-
Problem: Water moves too fast and carves gullies into your yard.
-
Solution:
4-8" Cobbles
2. Managing Poor Drainage (Dry Creek Beds)
In areas with heavy rainfall, like the Puyallup Valley, water often pools where you don't want it.
-
Problem: Soggy lawns or standing water near your foundation.
-
Solution: Creating a dry creek bed with stones gives water a designated, attractive path to follow. Unlike small gravel, these larger stones won't clog up with silt as easily, allowing water to flow freely through the gaps between rocks.
3. Protecting Against Tire Damage
Many homeowners deal with people cutting corners on their driveway or mail trucks rutting up the grass by the mailbox.
-
Problem: Deep tire ruts and mud pits at the edge of your property.
-
Solution: Placing heavy cobbles along the shoulder of a driveway creates a "soft barrier." It defines the edge clearly for drivers and provides a stable, rock-solid surface that won't sink or turn into mud if a tire does roll over it.
4. Creating Permanent, Rot-Proof Borders
Standard plastic or wood edging eventually breaks, rots, or gets hit by the lawnmower.
-
Problem: High maintenance and constant replacement of garden edging.
-
Solution: They are heavy enough to stay put without stakes and won't be damaged by string trimmers or mowers.
