Construction Material (Gravel/Sand)
Whether you are leveling steppers, setting posts for a mailbox or fence, installing a pool, or building a patio, we have the material you need to get the job done. You can purchase quantities ranging from a 5 gallon bucket up to a 12 ton delivery.
Construction stone is sold by the ton, which is 2,000 pounds. (One cubic yard of stone = 1.5 tons.) Prices vary depending on the stone material desired. For delivery, we have a one ton minimum, up to 12 ton maximum on one truck.
If you are using Road Mix (aka Grade 8 or CA6) or Limestone Screenings, when estimating the quantity you need, account for a compaction rate of 20%. If your coverage estimates show you need 10 ton, multiply by 20%. 10 x 1.2 = 12 tons.
All construction materials may be picked up or delivered in our local area. Our tractors are equipped with scales to assure you an honest weight for your load. In order to get
loaded, your truck or trailer must have no cap or rack for tractor loading. Tim Wallace Landscape Supply is not responsible for damage done to your vehicle during loading or unloading. Please be sure your vehicle can handle the weight.
If your truck or trailer can’t handle the weight, we have options for you.
- Consider the Rental Dump Truck. The rental is available to qualified drivers with valid drivers license and proof of insurance. Deposit applies. The rental is only for hauling materials purchased at Tim Wallace Landscape Supply. (Please ask about availability of rental trucks.)
- Delivery options are available. There is a one ton minimum, and a 12 ton maximum per load. Call us to schedule your delivery!
