Products and Materials
Additional materials like washed gravel, mason sand, and garden soil are available for specialized projects. Contact the team to discuss options not listed.
Material Selection by Project Type
- Driveways: Crusher run provides a firm, compactable base for vehicle traffic. A layer of 57 stone on top can improve drainage if needed.
- Drainage: Crushed Stone like 57 stone works best for French drains and foundation perimeter. Avoid materials with fines that can clog.
- Patios and walkways: Use concrete sand as a leveling bed under pavers. For a dry-laid patio, apply a base of crusher run first.
- Landscape beds and soil work: Natural Pea Gravel or decorative stone adds a clean look around plants. Top soil helps establish new flower beds or repair lawn spots.
Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice
ZIP 70170 in New Orleans is mostly urban with compact lots and limited green space. Many properties sit on flat, slow-draining soil that holds moisture after heavy rain.
Mild winters mean little freeze-thaw stress, but the area receives significant rainfall. Materials that drain well, such as 57 stone, are often preferred for base layers and landscape projects.
Older subdivisions may have narrow driveways with tight turnaround areas. Choosing angular stone over round gravel can provide better stability on these surfaces.
Delivery and Access in ZIP 70170 of New Orleans
American Rock Supply delivers bulk materials directly to your driveway or job site in much of ZIP 70170. We serve homeowners and contractors with single-load or multiple-load orders.
Truck access can be tight on narrow streets and in older neighborhoods. Check for low-hanging branches, wires, and gate width before scheduling delivery.
Soft ground after rain may limit where the dump truck can position. Plan a drop zone that keeps the load off saturated lawn when possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about delivery to 70170 in New Orleans, LA
Does American Rock Supply deliver to ZIP 70170?
Yes, we deliver bulk materials to much of ZIP 70170 in New Orleans. Contact us to confirm your address and discuss access.
What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in New Orleans?
Crusher run is commonly used for driveways here. It compacts well and resists rutting on flat, wet ground. A top coat of 57 stone can improve drainage.
What is the difference between crusher run and Crushed Stone?
Crusher run contains fines (small dust and chips) that bind the stone together when compacted. Crushed Stone like 57 stone has no fines, so it stays loose and allows water to drain.
What material works best for drainage around a foundation?
57 stone is recommended because it is clean and allows water to move quickly away. Avoid using crusher run near foundations, as the fines can hold moisture.
How do I figure out how much material I need?
Measure the length and width of your area in feet and estimate the depth in inches. Contact our team with those dimensions and your project type for a recommended quantity.
