They called to make sure I ordered the correct amount, then on delivery day they were running a little late and let me know. The driver was great, he told me exactly how he was going to drop the load on my marked spot and did so with great aim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Use the calculator above. Stone dust is typically applied as a thin 1-inch setting bed under pavers — at that depth, 1 ton covers about 150 square feet. For arenas or other depths, the calculator handles the math once you set the depth.
We deliver directly to your driveway or project site using a dump truck. Just choose your delivery date and time window (AM or PM) during checkout. Next-day delivery is available on orders placed before noon.
Yes! Delivery is included in the price you see — no hidden fees, no surprises. The price per ton (or yard) you see is the price you pay, delivered.
The minimum order is typically 1 ton (or 1 cubic yard for mulch and soil products). Our pricing gets better with larger quantities — a full truckload (18 tons) gives you the best per-unit price.
Due to the nature of bulk materials, we cannot accept returns once delivered. We recommend using our calculator to get the right amount — it's better to order slightly more than to run short mid-project.
Stone dust packs harder and stays put better than sand for the leveling layer under pavers. Many pros use a compacted gravel base topped with 1" of stone dust as the final setting bed.
Stone dust is dense once compacted, but seeds can find any opening. We recommend installing landscape fabric beneath, and sweeping polymeric sand into joints between pavers to lock things down.
