material crusher run rock gravel north alabama

3/4" Crusher Run 

¾" Crusher Run is a graded aggregate base commonly used for driveways and building foundations. This blend of M10 manufactured sand and #57 gravel compacts extremely well, creating a firm and stable base. Because it contains fines, the material locks together when compacted — making it ideal for driveways, walkways, and general base prep.

*3/4" Crusher Run is available at select quarry locations.
  • Driveways & private roads
  • Base material / foundation build-up
  • Walkways
  • Under pavers or patio stones
1 ton covers 80–100 sq ft @ 2" deep
1 cubic yard covers ~300 sq ft @ 1" deep



material crusher run big north alabama

1.5" Crusher Run 

1.5" Crusher Run is a larger graded aggregate base product made from a blend of M10 fines and larger crushed stone. It binds extremely well and is ideal for deep fill projects, new construction driveways, heavy-traffic areas, and foundation preparation where maximum compaction is required. 

Available at all quarry locations.

  • Heavy-duty driveway base
  • Building pads & deep fills
  • Areas requiring high compaction
  • Private roads / rural entrances
1 ton covers 70–90 sq ft @ 2" deep
Larger stone = slightly less coverage



material limestone rock gravel north alabama

Limestone #4s 

#4 Limestone gravel consists of clean, crushed limestone typically 1–2.5 inches in size. It’s commonly used for deep fill applications such as over-dig areas, porches, garage slabs, and drainage solutions. While #4 limestone offers excellent stability, it may be uncomfortable to drive on compared to smaller stone sizes. For everyday driveways, #57 gravel is usually recommended unless deeper support is needed.
  • Driveways (deep fill areas)
  • Over-dig and backfill
  • Porches, garage pads, foundations
  • Soft or muddy driveways
  • Heavy-duty driveway base
1 ton covers 85–100 sq ft @ 2" deep



material riprap rock gravel north alabama

Rip Rap 

Rip rap is a large, angular stone used primarily for erosion control. Also known as gabion rock or shot rock, it prevents soil loss in steep banks, creek edges, drainage ditches, and high-flow areas. Its weight and size help absorb water impact and stabilize the surrounding soil. Rip rap may also be used for parking areas requiring heavy-duty reinforcement.
  • Erosion control
  • Creek banks & waterways
  • Culvert outlets
  • Protection in washout areas
1 ton covers 35–50 sq ft @ 6" deep



material 57s rock gravel north alabama

57s 

#57 gravel is a versatile aggregate used for drainage, driveways, parking lots, french drains, and concrete prep. The stone ranges from about ¾–1 inch and contains no fines, meaning it does not compact — ideal for water flow and drainage projects. #57s are one of the most commonly used gravels for residential and commercial applications.
  • Drainage systems
  • Parking lots
  • Driveways (top layer)
  • Concrete & pipe bedding
1 ton covers 80–100 sq ft @ 2" deep



material 89s rock gravel north alabama

89s 

#89 gravel is a small, clean aggregate about ⅛"–½" in size. It’s commonly used in concrete and asphalt mixes, as well as for walkways, drainage systems, and irrigation projects. Its small size and smooth texture make it easy to spread and ideal for areas where finer gravel is preferred. Often referred to as “graveyard gravel.”
  • Concrete & asphalt mix
  • Drainage & irrigation
  • Walkways
  • Graveyard gravel
1 ton covers 90–110 sq ft @ 2" deep (small rock)



material pea gravel rock gravel north alabama

Pea Gravel 

Pea gravel consists of small, rounded stones typically ⅜"–¼" in size. It’s frequently used in landscaping beds, pathways, play areas, and drainage applications. Pea gravel does not compact, so it’s not suitable for driveways or drive/walk surfaces that require stability. Ideal for decorative projects and light-use areas.
  • Landscaping
  • Play areas
  • Drainage
  • Decorative ground cover
1 ton covers 90–110 sq ft @ 2" deep



material river rock gravel north alabama

River Rock 

River rock is a smooth, rounded stone used for landscaping, decorative beds, dry creek features, and erosion control. Available in various sizes, it adds a natural, polished look to gardens and water features. While attractive, river rock is not ideal for driveways due to its round shape and lack of compaction.
  • Water features & ponds
  • Decorative beds
  • Dry creek beds
  • Pathways & landscaping
1 ton covers 50–70 sq ft @ 2" deep (size varies)
