Crushed Stone, Clean, 3" to 6"

Crushed stone in a clean 3" to 6" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular pieces, then thoroughly washing to remove fines and dust. The "clean" attribute means the material is free from smaller particles, ensuring optimal drainage and reducing the risk of compaction.

This large, clean stone is ideal for heavy-duty drainage applications, such as French drains, erosion control, and base layers for retaining walls or large-scale construction projects. Its substantial size prevents clogging and allows water to flow freely, making it a top choice for stormwater management and riprap. While its size and angularity provide excellent stability, it is not suitable for surfaces requiring compaction or smooth finishes. Overall, clean 3" to 6" crushed stone is valued for its strength, drainage capability, and reliability in demanding commercial and residential projects.
