Instead of trying to dig the shovel into the middle of the pile, start at the edge of the pile with your shovel flat against the driveway so there aren’t any rocks underneath your shovel, just the flat surface of the driveway. Much less friction that way and allows you to get a shovel full each time :)

Even bark mulch is easier to move with a pitch fork.
River Rock would have been better to work with. That's what I used here in Kissimmee Florida. Good luck 👍

Shoveling this type of rock is a nightmare...There really is no two ways around it. I've tried all of the tricks and none of them really help that much.

Hi Ryan, how do you order the rock, by the sq yard or by the ton? 👍🏻🇺🇸
Cool video. Have you had any issues with weeds since then?
How many tons of rock did you get for this project? Nice work!

Cost of thee rocks and how much you brought?
Nice job sir. I’m trying to do the same thing at home. What type of tarp or landscape fabric did you use to cover the soil? Thanks
You're Lucky to live in the South
I hope you used landscape fabric and not a tarp like you said a couple of times. Water should be able to pass through it but not weeds. Tarps don't let water through.
Yes I like my friend
Just curious about if the dumping on the bare cement like that caused any kind of issues at all as far as chipping or colored mineral transference etc? Job looks great tho!

I want to do this at our home in southeast Georgia. I'm being told that putting landscaping rocks makes the plant bed too 🔥 hot it could burn up the plants. Is that true?

That is true. Be sure to water them more. It's worth it though from an anesthetic standpoint.

Remember rocks will bring a big amount of heat to your plants.
Curious how your plants are holding up with plastic tarp instead of landscaping fabric? Any weeds? Nice project, I can appreciate the effort of moving that much rock.

Doing good. I do have to pull some weeds here and there. Leaves like to get stuck in the rock. I just shuffle them around while leaf blowing
How many yards did you buy?? Thanks. Looks good Bro!!🙂👍👊

Great job but you made two small mistakes you don't have a gorilla cart 1200.payload and you should had part of the load dropped off near the second bed.
