River Rock (3/4″)
Applications & Uses
3/4" River Rock
3/4" river rock is a naturally rounded stone sourced from riverbeds and stream deposits. Its smooth texture and consistent sizing are achieved through natural erosion and screening processes, resulting in a durable aggregate with minimal sharp edges.
The 3/4" size strikes a balance between visual appeal and practical function. It is large enough to provide excellent drainage while remaining easy to handle and spread. This makes it a popular choice for landscape beds, garden pathways, decorative ground cover, and around water features. In commercial settings, it is often used for erosion control, drainage swales, and as an attractive alternative to mulch.
The rounded shape of river rock is gentle underfoot, making it ideal for play areas and walkways. However, its smoothness means it does not compact as tightly as angular stone, so it is less suitable for load-bearing applications like driveways. Overall, 3/4" river rock offers a low-maintenance, visually pleasing solution for both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
