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








Crushed stone and crushed gravel look similar, but they are not the same material. Crushed stone is made by crushing larger rock, giving it sharp edges that lock together under load. Crushed gravel comes from natural deposits and often has more rounded particles, making it less stable for heavy use.
For Reidsville projects, crushed stone is the better choice for anything that needs to bear weight or resist washout. With about 47 inches of precipitation a year, drainage planning matters here, and crushed stone's angular shape helps water pass through while staying in place.
Not every crushed stone size works for every job. Some are for base layers, others for finishing surfaces. Here is what each product is not suitable for.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Paver setting bed and tight fill | Not for driveways or heavy loads |
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | The all-purpose size for base and drainage | Not for finished surfaces |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Heavy base and erosion control | Not for tight areas under pavers |
| 2"-3" Crushed Stone | Rip rap style edging and deep fill | Not for a final driving surface |
| #57 Crushed Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, driveway base | Not for paver joints |
| #67 Stone | Concrete mix and drainage backfill | Not for leveling |
| #8 Stone | Paver joints and pipe bedding | Not for heavy base layers |
| #10 Rock Screenings | Leveling course under pavers | Not for drainage or structural fill |
Here is a quick guide to matching the right crushed stone to common projects.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Pipe backfill | #67 Stone | Backfill around pipe |
| Paver bedding | 3/8" Crushed Stone | 1 to 2 inches compacted |
| Driveway base layer | #57 Crushed Stone | Typical depth 4 to 6 inches |
| Concrete slab base | #57 Crushed Stone | Typical depth 4 to 6 inches |
| French drain | #57 Crushed Stone | Around perforated pipe |
Reidsville sees about 76 days a year when the temperature drops below freezing. That many freeze-thaw cycles can shift an unstable base, making drainage the critical factor for crushed stone installations. Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts.
Soils mapped in the Reidsville area are commonly well drained, which means water moves through the ground rather than pooling. Combined with a moderate water intake rate (hydrologic group B), a standard base depth is usually enough for most projects. The roughly 7 inches of snowfall each year can also damage a loose surface if plowing is needed, so compact the top layer well.
Rockingham County permitted about 344 single-family homes in 2024, a county figure that points to steady new construction. For those builds, crushed stone provides a solid base under concrete slabs and driveways.
Calculating the tonnage of crushed stone for your job starts with the area and the compacted depth. Use our crushed stone calculator to estimate the amount, then adjust for the specific product and compaction. The calculator accounts for the material's weight per cubic yard and gives you a number you can order by the ton.

Avoid ordering during the freeze-thaw period from December through February if you need a stable base immediately.
In most of the Reidsville area, soils are commonly well drained and take water in at a moderate rate. That means a standard base depth is usually adequate for crushed stone projects. You do not generally need extra stone to compensate for poor drainage, but always factor in the load the surface will carry.
