Road Base

(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½" in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces.

Top Benefits:

• Excellent compaction – Locks together tightly to create a dense, stable foundation.
• Load-bearing strength – Withstands heavy vehicles and high-traffic areas without rutting when installed properly.
• Cost-effective – Reduces long-term maintenance by preventing settling and surface damage.
• Versatile material – Suitable for roads, driveways, building pads, and large-scale site prep.
• Reliable performance – Designed to meet construction-grade specifications for quality and durability.

From residential driveways to major roadway projects, road base provides the dependable foundation needed to ensure a strong, stable, and long-lasting surface.

Other Names:

• Base Course, Aggregate Base Course (ABC), Crusher Run, Class 5 (or Class V), Class 6, Type 2 Base, Graded Aggregate Base (GAB)

Key Uses:

• Road construction – This road base material forms a strong sub-base layer for highways, streets, and rural roads.
  
• Driveway foundation – Creates a durable, compacted base for residential and commercial driveways.
  
• Parking lots & staging areas – Supports heavy traffic and equipment with minimal shifting.
  
• Underlayment for paving – Essential base layer beneath gravel, asphalt, or concrete installations that require a strong base for heavier traffic and machinery.

Quantity Recommendations:

• Orders Under 5 Tons – Add 20% extra to your estimated gravel needs to account for compaction and to ensure enough material on hand.
• 5+ Ton Orders – Add around 10% to account for compaction to ensure enough additional material on hand.

Our goal is to make the buying process for gravel and other aggregates as easy and seamless as possible. Enter your zip code on our site, select how much material you need (see below FAQ’s to determine order size), select the date and time frame you would like your material delivered at Checkout, and place your order with any major credit card. After the order is placed our in-house support team will contact you to confirm the details. We will send additional confirmations on the day before and the day of delivery. On delivery day, a dump truck will arrive to dump the materials at your specified location. We request that you have someone available to accept the delivery so that we can make sure to dump it in the correct location. That’s it!

We do not offer installation or spreading services as part of our material delivery.  However, depending on the location, site conditions, weather, and comfortability of the driver, we may be able to tailgate spread the material if the driver feels the location and conditions are suitable.

This involves slowly moving the truck forward while dumping the material to make it easier to distribute, but is not a guaranteed service.
