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








The delivered price of crushed stone comes down to the size you need, where it comes from, and how far the truck has to travel. In a place like Williston, where about 46 inches of precipitation falls each year, choosing the right stone for drainage is just as important as the material cost itself.
A clean, angular base that lets water pass through saves repairs later. The most common mistake is ordering a stone that is too small for the load it has to carry, or too uniform to lock together.
Each crushed stone size solves a specific problem, but picking the wrong one creates new ones. The table below shows what each product is built for.
| Size | Best use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Paver setting bed and tight fill | Use for thin bedding under pavers; too small for heavy traffic loads. |
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | The all-purpose size for base and drainage | Compacts well and drains; the go-to for driveways and patios. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Stone | Heavy base and erosion control | Good for erosion control under heavy loads; not for final surfaces. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Stone | Rip rap style edging and deep fill | Too large for driveways; used for rip rap edges or deep fill. |
| #57 Crushed Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, driveway base | Open graded for drainage; works under concrete or in drains. |
| #67 Stone | Concrete mix and drainage backfill | Slightly smaller than #57; used in concrete mix and backfill. |
| #8 Stone | Paver joints and pipe bedding | Clean fill for pipe bedding; not meant for driveways. |
| #10 Rock Screenings | Leveling course under pavers | Dusty fines for leveling; does not drain well on its own. |
Match your surface type to the right material. This table shows the best crushed stone choice for five common projects.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| French drain | #57 Crushed Stone | Fill trench to within 6 inches of grade; open grading allows water flow. |
| Pipe backfill | #8 Stone | Surround pipe with clean stone; no fines that could clog. |
| Paver bedding | 3/8" Crushed Stone | 1-inch compacted base; provides a stable surface for pavers. |
| Driveway base layer | 3/4" Crushed Stone | 6 to 8 inches compacted; handles vehicle loads and frost heave. |
| Concrete slab base | #57 Crushed Stone | 4 inches compacted; provides drainage under a concrete slab. |
Williston gets about 46 inches of precipitation a year. The ground around Williston is in a hydrologic group that takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That means drainage and a deeper crushed stone base matter more here than elsewhere, because washout can undermine a thin layer.
About 109 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, so scheduling the delivery onto firm ground is important. With about 154 days a year below 32F, the ground freezing is deep and long. Spring thaw is the wet part of the year for driveways, and it is when a thin base shows up as ruts. A base deep enough to handle frost movement prevents that.
About 88 inches of snow a year mean plowing can damage a loose surface. A well-compacted crushed stone base resists that damage and stays in place.
Estimating tonnage accurately starts with the depth you need. For a driveway base or a French drain, the volume depends on the project's footprint and the compaction factor of the stone. Use our crushed stone calculator to get a tonnage estimate before you order.

Crushed stone often works with other bulk materials on the same job site. These options complement a crushed stone base.
Yes. The ground around Williston takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That often calls for a deeper crushed stone base for drainage in driveways and French drains compared to areas with sandy soil. A thicker base helps prevent washout and frost heave.
Delivery cost depends on your ZIP code and the tonnage ordered, shown at checkout. Williston's annual precipitation of about 46 inches means a well-drained base is important, but the delivery cost does not change based on climate.
Yes. Larger stone leaves more voids and compacts less tightly, while smaller stone with fines fills those voids and compacts into a dense, stable surface. Proper compaction usually requires a mix of sizes within a single gradation.
The 3/4" Crushed Stone is the most common all-purpose size, used for base layers under driveways, patios, and French drains across Williston. It compacts well and provides a balance of drainage and load support.
