Best Uses in Sunrise
Contractors and homeowners throughout Sunrise use 3/4" crushed stone for many practical applications across residential and commercial properties. It is ideal as a compacted base under pavers, concrete pads, and asphalt driveways where stability and long-term performance are critical. Parking areas, equipment pads, and pathways all benefit from its firmness and resistance to settling under vehicle weight. Many properties in the area also use it for drainage improvements and erosion control on slopes and in landscaping beds. The consistent size and angular shape ensure level compaction and reduce settling and maintenance needs over time, which is particularly valuable in Sunrise's humid, rainy climate where improper drainage can weaken structures.
How Much You Need
Start by measuring your project area in feet and determining your desired depth in inches. Use the calculator to convert your measurements to tons quickly and accurately. For example, a driveway 20 feet wide and 50 feet long with a 4-inch base typically needs about 12 tons. For parking areas or equipment pads with heavier traffic, you may want 5-6 inches of compacted stone.

About 3/4″ Crushed Stone
About 3/4" Crushed Stone
3/4" crushed stone is a gray aggregate made by crushing limestone or granite to a uniform size roughly the size of a coin. It weighs about 2,700 pounds per cubic yard, making it dense and stable for compaction under foot traffic and equipment weight. Its consistent 3/4 inch size and angular edges promote interlocking, which helps it compact firmly and resist settling over time. This material is ideal for base layers under pavers, concrete, and asphalt where load-bearing capacity is essential. The stone also works well for decorative landscaping with integrated functional drainage. Most contractors choose it over finer materials like #57 stone or pea gravel when a stable, load-bearing foundation is the primary goal. In Florida's humid and wet climate, good drainage and solid compaction are key factors in long-term durability and project success.

How many tons of 3/4 inch crushed stone does a driveway need?
A standard driveway 20 feet by 50 feet with a 4-inch base layer requires about 12 tons. Calculate your own project by measuring length and width in feet, then depth in inches. For your Sunrise crushed stone project, divide the total by 324 to convert to cubic yards. Multiply by 1.35 to convert to tons, since 3/4 inch stone weighs about 1.35 tons per cubic yard.
What is the best way to compact 3/4 inch crushed stone?
Light foot traffic or a hand tamper compact it adequately for garden beds and pathways. For driveways and parking areas, use a mechanical plate compactor or vibratory roller for the best results and proper density. Lightly water the stone first to help it settle more effectively. Let it set for a week or two, then add more if settling is visible.
Can I use 3/4 inch crushed stone under pavers?
Yes. A 4 to 6 inch layer of compacted 3/4 inch crushed stone works well under pavers. It provides drainage and a stable, level base for the paver installation. Top it with 1 inch of sand before laying pavers. This combination prevents settling and water pooling, significantly extending the life of your paver installation.
How does 3/4 inch stone compare to smaller stones like #57?
#57 stone is pea-sized and finer, while 3/4 inch is larger and coarser. 3/4 inch compacts more firmly and is better for load-bearing applications like driveways. #57 is often used as a finishing or decorative layer. For a structural base, 3/4 inch is the more stable and durable choice.
Is 3/4 inch crushed stone suitable for erosion control?
Yes. On sloped ground, its larger size slows water runoff and helps stabilize soil better than fine materials. Layer it 4 to 6 inches deep on slopes prone to erosion. Pair it with landscape fabric underneath for best results, especially during heavy rain and seasonal flooding concerns.
What delivery times are available in Sunrise?
Orders of 3 tons take 1-2 business days to arrive in Sunrise. We offer same or next-day service for orders of 8 tons or more to Sunrise. Free shipping applies to Sunrise orders of 15 tons and above. Call or enter your address at checkout to confirm availability for your preferred delivery date.
Can 3/4 inch stone be mixed with topsoil?
Mixing them is not recommended if you need a stable base for structural applications. Topsoil holds water, while crushed stone base for the best combination of drainage and soil quality.
How long does 3/4 inch crushed stone last?
A well-compacted base can last 10 or more years under normal conditions. Heavy vehicle traffic, rain, seasonal movement, and settling can gradually shift it over time. Inspect it every few years and top up or re-compact as needed to maintain stability and proper drainage.
