## Material Selection by Project Type

• Driveways: Crusher run works best for a compacted, stable driveway surface. A base layer of larger stone may be needed on soft ground.
• Drainage: Crushed Stone like #57 allows water to move freely and reduces pooling. Avoid materials with fines in drainage applications.
• Patios and walkways: A compacted base of crusher run or #57 stone supports pavers. Setting sand is used as a final leveling layer.
• Landscape beds and soil work: Natural Pea Gravel or decorative stone creates clean beds. Topsoil or garden soil improves planting areas, while mulch helps retain moisture.

## Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

ZIP 27540 in Holly Springs features a mix of newer subdivisions and older rural lots. Soil varies from Top Soil to clay-heavy areas, which affects drainage and compaction.

Many properties have gently sloping terrain that requires proper base preparation to prevent erosion. Freeze-thaw cycles in winter can shift materials, so compactable aggregates are preferred for driveways.

Rain can saturate clay soils, making delivery access tricky. Choosing materials with good drainage properties helps manage runoff on tighter suburban lots.

## FAQ

1. Does American Rock Supply deliver to ZIP 27540?

   Yes, we deliver bulk aggregates to much of ZIP 27540 in Holly Springs. Contact us with your address to confirm access for a dump truck.

2. What aggregate is best for a residential driveway in Holly Springs?

   Crusher run is a popular choice because it compacts firmly and resists shifting. It works well for driveways of any length.

3. What is the difference between crusher run and Crushed Stone?

   Crusher run contains fines that help it lock together. Crushed Stone, like #57, has no fines and drains water quickly. Use crusher run for surfaces and clean stone for drainage.

4. What material works best for drainage around a foundation?

   Clean #57 stone is commonly used because it allows water to flow away from the house. Avoid crusher run or materials with fines near foundations.

5. How do I figure out how much material I need?

   Measure the length, width, and desired depth of your project area. Contact the American Rock Supply team with these dimensions and a description of your project for guidance on volume.
