Common projects include residential driveways, paver patios, drainage work, landscape beds, lawn repair, and base preparation for sheds, outbuildings, and small contractor jobs.
Products and Materials
Secondary materials such as Road Base, black mulch, and Stone Screenings are also available by request for projects needing alternative textures or colors.
Material Selection by Project Type
- Driveways: A compactable crushed stone like crusher run or crushed limestone works best. It provides a stable surface that resists rutting under cars and trucks.
- Drainage: Crushed Stone or Natural Pea Gravel allows water to flow through without clogging. Avoid materials with fines near foundations or French drains.
- Patios and walkways: Start with a crushed stone base for stability, then top with concrete sand to level pavers. This sandwich method prevents shifting over time.
- Landscape beds and soil work: Top soil or garden soil feeds plants, while river rock or mulch covers bare ground and reduces weeds.
Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice
ZIP 70145 in New Orleans lies in a flat, low-lying area with a high water table. Rain drains slowly here, so materials that promote water movement are often preferred for foundations and patios.
Most properties are compact urban lots with narrow side yards. Older homes may have crumbling concrete driveways that need a thick base layer before a new surface.
Mild winters mean no freeze-thaw concerns. Heavy downpours are common, making clean stone a reliable choice for drainage trenches and around slab edges.
Delivery and Access in ZIP 70145 of New Orleans
American Rock Supply serves much of ZIP 70145 with delivery-only service. No pickup is available.
Many streets in this area are narrow, with cars parked on both sides. Overhead branches and low utility wires can affect where the truck can dump. A clear drop zone at least 10 feet wide and 12 feet high is helpful.
Soft ground after rain can cause ruts, so advise the driver on the best path. For tight lots, smaller loads or a single dump spot often works best. Contractors with larger jobs can schedule multiple loads.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about delivery to 70145 in New Orleans, LA
Does American Rock Supply deliver to ZIP 70145?
Yes, we deliver bulk materials to residential and commercial addresses in ZIP 70145 of New Orleans. We can bring gravel, stone, sand, soil, and mulch directly to your driveway.
What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in New Orleans?
Crushed limestone or crusher run works well because it compacts into a firm surface. It handles the weight of cars and resists rutting in our rainy climate.
What is the difference between crusher run and Crushed Stone?
Crusher run contains fines that help it compact solid. Crushed Stone lacks those fines, so water passes through it easily. Use clean stone for drainage, crusher run for driveways.
What material works best for drainage around a foundation?
Clean 3/4-inch crushed stone or Natural Pea Gravel is best. It allows water to drain away from the foundation without clogging the trench.
Can material be delivered to long driveways or tight lots in ZIP 70145?
Yes. We can dump on long driveways as long as the truck can reach the drop spot. On tight lots, we may need to dump on the street and you can move material by hand.
