Crushed Stone ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Brooklyn address and unloads right where you point.








In Brooklyn, about 67 days a year drop below 32F. That freeze-thaw cycle limits the window for excavation and base placement. Plan your crushed stone work for months when the ground is stable and the delivery truck can reach the site without soft conditions.
Proper base depth and drainage are essential in Brooklyn's climate. The right crushed stone size and a well-compacted lift handle the ground movement that winter brings. Getting the material delivered on time means scheduling the drop onto firm ground.
The most often ordered size for base and drainage work is 3/4" Crushed Stone. It compacts well and handles load and drainage. The other sizes below serve specific jobs from paver bedding to rip rap. Crushed stone differs from crushed gravel in the parent rock and grading, but both are angular materials.
| Product | Best For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Paver setting bed, tight fill | Fine grade, ideal under pavers or as a compacted fill. |
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | All-purpose base and drainage | The standard for driveways, patios, and trench backfill. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Heavy base and erosion control | Larger aggregate for deep fills and slope stabilization. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Stone | Rip rap style edging and deep fill | Oversized stone for drainage swales and heavy compaction layers. |
| #57 Crushed Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, driveway base | Sized between 1" and 1/2", self-draining and stable. |
| #67 Stone | Concrete mix and drainage backfill | Slightly smaller than #57, good for tight drainage applications. |
| #8 Stone | Paver joints and pipe bedding | Small uniform size for fine bedding and joint fill. |
| #10 Rock Screenings | Leveling course under pavers | Dust and fines for a smooth, compactable leveling layer. |
Match your project to the right crushed stone size and depth. The table below covers five typical jobs in Brooklyn and which product delivers the best result.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Pipe backfill | #57 Crushed Stone | 6 to 8 inches around pipe, compacted in lifts |
| French drain | #57 Crushed Stone | Fill trench, wrap in filter fabric, no fine material |
| Driveway base layer | 3/4" Crushed Stone | 4 to 6 inches compacted, over geotextile if soil is soft |
| Paver bedding | 3/8" Crushed Stone | 1 inch screeded level, over compacted base |
| Concrete slab base | #67 Stone | 4 to 6 inches, compacted to 95% Proctor |
Brooklyn gets about 47 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage and washout are real concerns. A properly designed crushed stone base with adequate depth and slope keeps water moving away from structures.
About 75 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That many wet days makes scheduling the delivery onto firm ground critical. Plan your order for a dry stretch so the truck can access the site without sinking.
Snowfall in Brooklyn averages about 30 inches a year, and plowing can damage a loose surface. If you are placing crushed stone for a driveway or walkway, consider a compacted top layer or wait until after the snow season. Ground freezing here is real but moderate. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. The frost depth influences how deep the base layer needs to be to avoid shifting.
Use the crushed stone calculator to find the tonnage for your project. Enter the length, width, and depth in inches to get a cubic yard and ton estimate. The calculator accounts for compaction and the specific gravity of the stone you choose.
