What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in Long Beach?

For a stable driveway base, use Road Base. It contains a mix of crushed rock and fines that compact into a hard surface. Top it with 3/4 inch crushed stone or asphalt millings if desired.

What is the difference between crusher run and Crushed Stone?

Crusher run (or Class II Base) contains fines that help it compact into a solid layer. Crushed Stone has no fines so it stays loose and allows water to drain through. Use crusher run for base layers and clean stone for drainage.

What material works best for drainage around a foundation?

3/4 inch Crushed Stone is ideal. It creates a void that lets water flow away from the foundation without clogging. Wrap the stone in filter fabric to keep soil out of the drain.

How do I figure out how much material I need?

Measure the square footage and desired depth of your project area. Contact us with those dimensions and the material you are considering. We can help estimate the amount without needing exact formulas.

We also carry masonry sand, concrete sand, garden soil, and hardwood mulch for finishing touches on patios, playgrounds, and planting areas.

Material Selection by Project Type

Driveways: Use Road Base as a compacted layer under a surface material like crushed stone or asphalt millings. It prevents settling and rutting.
Drainage: Crushed Stone (3/4 inch or 1.5 inch) works best around foundations and in French drains because it does not clog with fines.
Patios and walkways: Start with a compacted base of Stone Screenings or road base. Then add a 1-inch sand layer before laying pavers or flagstone.
Landscape beds and soil work: Use screened top soil for new beds or lawn repair. For decorative cover, choose Natural Pea Gravel, lava rock, or shredded bark mulch.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

ZIP 90810 in Long Beach is mostly urban with flat terrain and older neighborhoods mixed with newer infill lots. Soils tend to be sandy and fast draining near the coast but can include clay in some blocks.

Because the area is low lying and receives moderate rainfall during winter, drainage is a common concern. Many homes have basements or crawl spaces that need clean stone for perimeter drains.

In tighter lots with short driveways, you may need a material that compacts well without rolling into the street. Class II Base or Stone Screenings gives a firm surface that stays in place.

Delivery and Access in ZIP 90810 of Long Beach

American Rock Supply offers delivery only, with no pickup option. Our trucks serve much of ZIP 90810 and can handle single-load homeowner orders as well as larger contractor quantities.

Most properties in 90810 have standard curb access, but narrow alleys or long driveways may require a short walk from the truck. Let us know if overhead branches or utility wires are present.
