River Rock (2″ To 4″)
Applications & Uses
River Rock in a 2" to 4" Size Range
River rock in a 2" to 4" size range is a naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds and stream banks. These stones are shaped and smoothed over time by water, resulting in a polished, attractive appearance. The larger size range makes this material ideal for projects where both aesthetics and function are important.
The 2" to 4" size provides excellent coverage and stability, making it a popular choice for decorative landscaping, dry creek beds, erosion control, and garden borders. Its substantial size helps prevent displacement, even in high-traffic or high-flow areas, while the smooth, rounded surfaces are safe for use around patios, walkways, and water features. While river rock does not compact like crushed stone, its permeability allows for superior drainage, reducing the risk of standing water. This makes it less suitable for load-bearing applications but ideal for decorative and drainage-focused projects.
