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 like Road Base, sand, and mulch are also available. These work well as budget-friendly fill, paver sand, or organic ground cover for flower beds.
Material Selection by Project Type
- Driveways: Choose a compactable base material like crushed limestone. A proper sub-base prevents shifting and rutting over time.
- Drainage: Use Crushed Stone such as #57. Fines can clog drainage, so avoid crusher run for French drains or foundation perimeters.
- Patios and walkways: Build a compacted base of crushed limestone or recycled concrete. Then add a thin layer of sand or stone dust for leveling pavers.
- Landscape beds and soil work: Top soil enriches planting areas. Decorative stone like river rock or Natural Pea Gravel adds curb appeal without maintenance.
Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice
ZIP 70165 sits within the flat, low-lying terrain of New Orleans. The soil here is mostly clay and slow to drain.
Many properties are on older town lots with limited space. Driveways are often short but may need extra base depth to handle soft ground after rain.
Because the area is urban and built up, material choices often favor clean stones that shed water and compacted bases that resist settling.
Delivery and Access in ZIP 70165 of New Orleans
American Rock Supply is delivery-only, serving much of ZIP 70165. Trucks need solid access and room to maneuver.
Many streets in New Orleans are narrow with parked cars. Long driveways or lots with tight turns may require a smaller drop zone.
Soft ground after heavy rain can make placement tricky. Overhead branches and wires are common, so note any low clearances when scheduling.
Single loads for homeowners and larger deliveries for contractors are both handled. The driver will place material where you request, provided the site is safe and reachable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about delivery to 70165 in New Orleans, LA
Does American Rock Supply deliver to ZIP 70165?
Yes, we deliver bulk aggregates, soil, and mulch to homes and job sites in ZIP 70165. Contact us to confirm your specific address and schedule a delivery time.
What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in New Orleans?
Crushed limestone is a top choice. It compacts well and handles the clay soil and occasional rain common in the area. A 4- to 6-inch base is typical for most passenger vehicles.
What material works best for drainage around a foundation?
Clean #57 crushed stone is ideal. It allows water to move freely without clogging. Avoid materials with fines, as they can trap moisture against the foundation.
How do I figure out how much material I need?
Measure the length and width of your area in feet, then decide on the depth. Contact us with those numbers and a short description of your project. We will help estimate the yardage.
Can one project require more than one material?
Yes. A driveway project often needs a base layer of crushed limestone and a top layer of clean stone or gravel. A patio needs both base material and sand for setting.
