AI material illustrationCrushed Limestone - 1 in
$42.00 / ton
Clean 1 inch crushed limestone, screened so most fines are removed. A step up from 3/4 inch rock, it holds better on rural driveways and sloped ground while still letting water move through. Common for driveway top layers, drainage trenches, foundation perimeter drains and erosion-prone areas.
2 tons × $42.00 per ton. Delivery and applicable tax are separate.
1 dump-truck load
Up to 16 tons per load. Different materials ship in separate loads.
Material specifications
- Particle size
- Nominal 1 in; confirm fines content
- Bulk density
- 1.35 tons/yd³ (estimate) (2,700 lb/yd³)
- Gradation
- Crushed limestone; exact grading varies by source
- Compaction
- Clean stone stays open; minus grades compact differently. Confirm which your project needs.
- Finished character
- Angular limestone stone
- Specs & test reports
- One-inch clean stone and one-inch-minus base are not interchangeable. Confirm drainage or compaction suitability with the contractor.
Typical nominal specifications. Natural materials vary by source, moisture, and production run; confirm critical engineering requirements before ordering.
Typical applications
- Rural and heavy-traffic driveways
- Drainage trenches and French drains
- Sloped ground stabilization
- Foundation perimeter drainage

Enter your area and depth and we'll estimate the tonnage.
Estimate includes no waste factor. Density changes with moisture and compaction; ordering 5–10% extra is common for field variation.
Delivery specifications
- Truck capacity
- Up to 16 tons per load
- Order minimum
- 2 tons
- Recommended access
- 12 ft wide, firm and level
- Overhead clearance
- 14 ft on approach; more at dump point
- Material handling
- Confirm clean versus minus grading before scheduling; provide a firm clear dump area.
Keep the dump area clear of people, vehicles, soft ground, septic systems, and overhead utilities. The driver makes the final safe-placement decision on arrival.
Know your material
Choose the right stone, not just the color
A practical guide to choosing and planning crushed limestone - 1 in. Match the exact grade to your project; nominal sizes and natural colors can vary between yards.
Size & grading
Nominal 1 in; confirm fines content
Surface character
Angular limestone stone
Estimated loose coverage
About 80 sq ft / ton at 3 in
Before compaction, settling or waste.
Where it works
Landscape cover, paths and drainage applications where the exact size, shape and fines content suit the design.
When to choose something else
Rounded stone moves under wheels and feet; angular stone behaves differently. Neither is automatically a substitute for compactable road base.
Before it arrives
Plan edging and drainage, remove weeds and prepare the base. Choose separation fabric for the site rather than assuming every installation needs it.
Placement & installation
Spread to the depth your project requires. Ask for a current sample to judge particle size, walking comfort and color before ordering a large quantity.
Care over time
Rake displaced stone back into place, remove debris and weeds, and top up thin areas. Surface dust can change the apparent color until rinsed by rain.
Confirm with the source
Clean versus minus grade, nominal size range, angular versus rounded shape and current source appearance.
General planning guidance. Supplier specifications, project plans and site conditions determine suitability and installation requirements.
