#4 Limestone
Large 1 1/2–2 1/2" crushed limestone for heavy base
#4 limestone is crushed limestone in big pieces, about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 inches, with the fines screened out. The large angular stones lock into a heavy-duty layer that bridges soft or wet ground, and the wide gaps move a lot of water. Use it for driveway and pad base over soft soil, construction entrances, drainage trenches, and around culverts. It's always limestone, so we only offer it where limestone is quarried nearby. Size varies slightly and color varies by location.
#4 limestone is large, angular limestone about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 inches, guaranteed limestone rather than #4 crushed stone that can be any rock the quarry runs.
Also called: 4 limestone, 1 1/2 inch limestone, 2 inch limestone, large crushed limestone.

Hello Gravel found me while I was looking for dirt to fill a hole that opened up in my back yard. I originally searched on DirtMatch and when I spoke with Chuck I was originally quoted for 1 ton of dirt. After showing pictures it turned out I needed less than half of that. Chuck talked me through the process of picking the right soil, how to fill the hole, and where to get what I needed from the Lowes local to me. Uploaded pictures of how we found it, after we dug out all the overhang and cleaned it out, and after we filled it in. I saved $400 by talking with Chuck and it only took like 3 hours. I wasn't even an official customer and Chuck took the time to help me with the hole in my yard. And on a weekend no less!!! What I'm saying is if you're looking for honest, kind, caring people to help you with your job. From my experience, this is the place.

While I cannot speak to the actual service, I did enter my phone number to get a quote. I realized it was probably too much for my small project. But I received a very helpful follow up text conversation, and after I explained it was probably more than I needed, they still took time to help me work through how much I would need, and offered me possible solutions, even knowing I wouldn't be using their product. Makes me wish they had fit my needs, if that's the level of service they provided even to a non customers

Frequently Asked Questions
Use the calculator with your length, width, and depth. Base layers and construction entrances usually take 4 to 6 inches or more. One ton covers about 60 square feet at 4 inches deep, or about 40 square feet at 6 inches.
It's a standard size number used by quarries and road departments. #4 stone runs from about 2 inches down to about 1 inch, much larger than #57. Exact sizing varies slightly by quarry.
Same size, specific rock. #4 crushed stone can be granite, trap rock, or limestone depending on the quarry. #4 limestone is always limestone, which is a bit softer and usually lighter in color. Pick it when your plans or your contractor call for limestone.
Yes. Big angular stone keeps trucks out of the mud and knocks dirt off tires before they reach the street. Lay it at least 6 inches thick over filter fabric, and check your local permit for the size and length it requires.
It's a base stone. The big pieces can shift under tires and feel rough. For a finished driveway, top it with road base or #57 stone.
By dump truck, straight to your property. The driver dumps it in one pile where you choose. Pick a firm, level spot the truck can reach, clear of cars and overhead wires. Delivery is included in the price you see.
