  • Driveways
  • Pathways
  • Pipe drainage

3/8" and 1" clean/washed is good to use for:

  • Durable pathways, terraces and driveways
  • Drainage
  • Landscaping

  • Base material for patios
  • Sandboxes
  • Leveling agent
  • Water Features/Ponds

Calculating Yardage

Take the length (feet) x width (feet) x depth (feet) divide by 27 = the cubic yards needed.
[For example, you have an area 6′ x 10′ x 0.25"(or 3") = 15 cubic ft divided by 27 = 0.55 cubic yards or 1 skid loader scoop.

Gravel / Rock Equivalents / Weight

1/2 yard (1 scoop) = 1,350 lb (.68 tons)
1 yard (2 scoops) = 2,700 lb (1.35 tons)
1.5 yards (3 scoops) = 4,050 lb (2.02 tons)
2 yards (4 scoops) = 5,400 lb (2.70 tons)
2.5 yards (5 scoops) = 6,750 lb (3.37 tons)
3 yards (6 scoops) = 8,100 lb (4.05 tons)
3.5 yards (7 scoops) = 9,450 lb (4.72 tons)
4 yards (8 scoops) = 10,800 lb (5.40 tons)
4.5 yards (9 scoops) = 12,150 lb (6.07 tons)
5 yards (10 scoops) = 13,500 lb (6.75 tons)
1 scoop = 13.5 cu ft = 80 sq ft, 2" deep
1 ton - 2,000 lbs. 20 cu ft 120 sq ft, 2" deep
