Products and Materials
For landscape finishing, consider river jack or decorative stone. For light fill, clean fill sand works in many New Orleans lots.
Material Selection by Project Type
- Driveways: Choose Road Base or class 2 road base for a compacted, stable surface. A base layer of larger stone may help on soft ground.
- Drainage: Use #57 crushed stone or drain rock around foundations and in French drains. Avoid materials with fines that can clog the system.
- Patios and walkways: Lay class 2 road base as a compacted subbase, then top with Natural Pea Gravel or sand for leveling.
- Landscape beds and soil work: Use screened topsoil or garden soil for new plantings. Natural Pea Gravel or river jack works well as a decorative mulch alternative.
Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice
ZIP 70142 in New Orleans covers a mix of older urban blocks and newer subdivisions. Many lots are flat and sit on clay or silty soil with slow drainage.
Heavy rainfall can cause puddling on compacted driveways if the base is not properly sloped. Using a clean stone layer beneath the surface helps water move away from structures.
In tighter neighborhoods, access for delivery trucks can be limited. Single-car driveways and street parking may require drop zones near the curb.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about delivery to 70142 in New Orleans, LA
Does American Rock Supply deliver to ZIP 70142?
Yes, we deliver bulk materials to residential and commercial addresses in ZIP 70142 of New Orleans. We serve much of the coverage area with standard dump trucks.
What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in New Orleans?
Road Base or class 2 road base is commonly used for driveways in New Orleans. These materials compact well and hold up to rain and daily use.
What is the difference between crusher run and Crushed Stone?
Crusher run contains fines that help it compact into a solid base. Crushed Stone has no fines and stays loose, which makes it better for drainage applications.
What material works best for drainage around a foundation?
Use #57 crushed stone or a similar clean, angular aggregate. It leaves open spaces for water to flow away from the foundation wall.
How do I figure out how much material I need?
Measure the length and width of your project area, then multiply by the desired depth. Contact our team with those dimensions and the use case, and we can help estimate the volume.
