Many Fayetteville contractors rely on this material because it compacts predictably and resists shifting over time, even after heavy rain or freeze-thaw cycles.

About #4 Crushed Stone

#4 crushed stone is a versatile aggregate that mixes small and medium stone fragments in the 1.5 to 2.5-inch range with stone dust fines. This gray material is quarried and processed by screening and crushing larger stone into uniform sizes. The angular edges and varied particle distribution make it excellent for compaction and base layers, unlike smoother river rock or pea gravel.

You buy #4 crushed stone by the ton, with one ton weighing 2,000 pounds. At roughly 2,800 pounds per cubic yard, one ton yields approximately 0.7 cubic yards in loose form, or about 0.5 cubic yards when compacted. The dust content, combined with the angular shape, creates a locked base that resists movement and provides superior drainage beneath driveways, parking areas, roads, and landscaping features. When compacted properly, #4 crushed stone settles into a stable matrix that supports vehicle weight and handles freeze-thaw cycles without heaving or washout.

#4 crushed stone suits both large-scale site preparation and smaller residential projects. Contractors value its consistency and availability, while homeowners appreciate its durability for gravel surfaces. It works well in North Carolina's climate and soil conditions, making it a proven choice for long-lasting base layers that remain stable year after year without requiring frequent raking or topping off.
