How it works
- We fix what we control. Wrong material, confirmed fulfillment errors, or orders we cannot complete are reviewed for replacement, refund, or another fair resolution.
- Safe delivery comes first. The driver chooses the final safe dump location on site. If your requested spot is not safely reachable, we deliver to the closest safe location available.
- Plans change. You can cancel free up to one full business day before delivery. Next-business-day orders cannot be cancelled once confirmed.
- Natural material varies. Color, texture, moisture, dust, and sizing can vary by quarry, supplier, season, and region.

What is paver sand?
Paver sand is coarse, washed sand for the screed layer under brick or stone pavers. It levels easily, drains well and does not compress over time, so pavers stay flat. Paver base sand, leveling sand, bedding sand and screed sand are other names for it.
What is the difference between paver sand and paver base?
Paver sand is the thin screed layer that pavers sit on, while paver base is the compacted stone layer underneath it. For patios and walkways, lay 3 to 4 inches of compacted road base, then screed the paver sand on top. For a harder setting bed, stone dust packs harder than sand.
