Product description

Compactable base for pavers, concrete, and driveways.

ABC, short for aggregate base course, is the compactable base material used under pavers, concrete slabs, and asphalt across the Valley. It's a blend of crushed rock and fines that packs down hard, which gives your finished surface a stable, even foundation that resists settling. Spread it in lifts, then wet and compact each one with a plate compactor or roller. A 4" compacted base is common for patios and walkways, and driveways usually need more. Hello Gravel delivers it in bulk by dump truck from a Valley rock yard.

Also called: road base, aggregate base, base course, ABC rock.

The order was excellent, the entire process went smoothly. I ordered the walkway gravel for a project around the home and the road base for a patio. The delivery driver placed it exactly where I wanted it and it was delivered on time. Excellent customer service.
