Fill Material in a 1.5" to 6" Size Range

Fill material in the 1.5" to 6" size range is a coarse aggregate commonly used in large-scale construction and landscaping projects. This material typically consists of a mix of natural stones, gravel, or recycled concrete, and is not processed for uniformity or appearance. Its larger particle size makes it ideal for applications where structural support and bulk fill are required rather than a smooth or decorative finish.

The substantial size range of 1.5" to 6" allows for excellent load-bearing capacity and rapid drainage, making it a preferred choice for backfilling retaining walls, filling large voids, stabilizing soft ground, and creating sub-bases for roads or building pads. However, due to its coarse nature, this fill material is not suitable for areas requiring compaction or a smooth surface. It is best used where stability and volume are more important than finish or compaction.
