#67 Crushed Stone Delivery Fort Lauderdale

Crushed Stone for Fort Lauderdale Construction

Fort Lauderdale is a major urban center with extensive residential, commercial, and waterfront development. New construction projects, parking lot repairs, and driveway replacements all depend on a solid foundation. #67 Stone, sold by the ton, is the material contractors specify for base layers. The stone's uniform size compacts predictably, creating a level, stable surface that prevents shifting and settling. In Fort Lauderdale's high-humidity environment, proper drainage is as important as structural stability, and #67 Stone provides both.

Applications in Fort Lauderdale

Residential driveways require a 3 to 4-inch compacted base of #67 Stone before asphalt or concrete is applied. Commercial parking lots use larger quantities of crushed stone to fill low spots that collect water after rain. The versatility of #67 Stone makes it suitable for projects ranging from small residential repairs to major commercial construction.

Calculating Your Tonnage Requirement

The amount of #67 Stone needed depends on the area of your project and the depth of stone required. For a standard driveway base, use 3 to 4 inches of compacted stone. A driveway that is 10 feet wide and 20 feet long requires approximately 2 to 3 tons of crushed stone. For precise tonnage estimates based on your exact dimensions, use the calculator. Remember that stone is sold by weight in tons, and one ton equals 2,000 pounds. #67 Stone compacts by 10 to 15 percent, so order a bit extra to maintain proper depth as settling occurs.

About #67 Stone

#67 Stone results from crushing large limestone and granite boulders into consistent, fist-sized fragments ranging from 1/2 to 3/4 inch. The gray color is characteristic of the parent rock and remains consistent from delivery to delivery. A ton weighs 2,000 pounds and covers approximately 75 to 100 square feet at 3 inches deep. The material's angular shape enables tight interlocking during compaction, which is why engineers and contractors specify it for structural applications. Quarried regionally from Florida and neighboring states, #67 Stone is cost-effective for large orders. When properly compacted and maintained, a #67 Stone base functions reliably for years, whether supporting pavement or serving as a temporary access surface.

Right behind that is patio gravel, common in dense neighborhoods where curb access is short and often paired with edging or fabric below the lift. Fort Lauderdale sits at about 182,437 residents, which means we see steady weekday traffic from landscape crews and weekend pickups from owner-builders.
