Buy Crushed Stone with Delivery in Sweetwater County, Wyoming
Open a product to see your delivered price.
Crushed stone covers a wider range of sizes than most buyers expect, and the size you pick decides how the material performs once it is down. Sweetwater County spans open rangeland, river bottom and built-up town blocks, and the same eight products serve all of them at different depths and different quantities. This page covers the full range and how each size fits a job across the county.
Sweetwater County gets about 10 inches of precipitation a year, so most of the water a stone surface sees arrives in a handful of storms rather than a steady soak. That shapes both drainage planning and how much base a driveway or pad needs before the surface stone goes down.
Crushed stone sizes American Rock Supply delivers in Sweetwater County
All eight products are crushed from quarried rock and share the same angular, interlocking character. What separates them is sieve size, and the numbers are sieve sizes rather than grades. Bigger numbers are not better stone, they are smaller stone, so #4 runs roughly 1 to 2 inches while #89 is finer still.
| Product | What it is for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/4" Crushed Stone | Driveway and road base, construction foundations, drainage, wall backfill | The default base and driveway stone for most county jobs, coarse enough to lock up under traffic. |
| 3/8" Crushed Stone | Walkways and patio surfaces, driveway top dressing, pipe bedding | A finer surface stone that walks well and dresses the top of a finished driveway. |
| #57 Stone | Concrete aggregate, French drains, wall backfill, driveway surfaces | 3/4 to 1 inch, the common choice where concrete, drainage and a drivable surface meet. |
| #67 Stone | Concrete aggregate, drainage and infiltration, pipe bedding | Slightly finer than #57, useful where water needs to move through the stone rather than over it. |
| #89 Crushed Stone | Paver and flagstone joints, chip seal, concrete mixes, walkway bedding | Fine enough to sweep into joints and lock a paver field tight. |
| #8 Crushed Stone | Permeable paver base and joints, drainage layers, concrete aggregate | About 3/8 to 1/2 inch, sized for permeable systems and drainage layers. |
| #4 Crushed Stone | Heavy-duty base, erosion control, high-volume drainage, gabion fill | The coarsest size here, for structural base and gabion work where load is high. |
| Stone Screenings | Paver and flagstone bedding, base leveling, joint filling, compacted paths | Fine screenings for bedding and leveling, compacting into a firm, tight surface. |
Matching crushed stone to the site across Sweetwater County
Homeowner jobs come first here, then the trade work that follows them. The site type decides the size and the depth, and the depth decides the quantity you order.
| Site type | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Rural acreage driveway | 3/4" Crushed Stone over #4 Crushed Stone | Deep base matters where the ground moves; judge depth at the actual site. |
| In-town lot, paver patio build-up | Stone Screenings over #8 Crushed Stone | Bedding and base sized to the paver system, not to a single number. |
| Concrete pour, residential or commercial | #57 Stone or #67 Stone | Aggregate grade for the mix; confirm the spec with the concrete supplier. |
| Pipe run bedding | 3/8" Crushed Stone or #67 Stone | Bedding sized to the pipe and the trench, set by the engineer's detail. |
| French drain, commercial or agricultural | #57 Stone or #4 Crushed Stone | Drainage stone sized to the inflow; the design sets the depth. |
What changes between one part of Sweetwater County and another
Sweetwater County runs from the built-up blocks of Rock Springs and Green River out to open rangeland and industrial ground, and the difference shows up first in access and second in quantity. A town lot usually means a short run from the street to a marked spot on the driveway. Acreage outside the towns can mean a longer approach, a gate, and a dump spot that has to be chosen before the truck arrives.
The survey point near the centre of the county falls in a soil group that takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface rather than soaking in. That behavior makes drainage and a deeper base matter more here than in places where water sinks, though drainage should be judged at the actual site rather than from a county-wide figure. About 23 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain, which is enough to soften ground and change when a loaded truck can safely leave a driveway.
Hard winters here lift and drop the ground, so depth and a compacted base matter more than they would further south. About 200 days a year drop below freezing and roughly 38 inches of snow fall, and plowing a loose surface stone can pull it apart season after season. That is the argument for getting the base right the first time rather than topping up a thin layer each spring.
How American Rock Supply reaches properties across Sweetwater County
American Rock Supply delivers nationwide through a network of local suppliers, and each order is matched to the nearest vetted supplier rather than shipped from a company yard. That is why coverage reaches rural addresses as well as the towns, and why the delivery ZIP is entered at checkout so the match can be made. Read how delivery works before you order, and check ordering questions if anything is unclear.
- Choose the crushed stone and the quantity you need, then enter the delivery ZIP code.
- Pick a delivery date at least two business days out, on a weekday between Monday and Friday.
- Order online; an email confirmation arrives immediately and the team follows up to confirm the date.
On the day, a dump truck leaves the material in a pile on the spot you mark, and unloading takes about 10 to 15 minutes. The truck needs an access path at least 12 feet wide with no low branches or overhead wires, so walk the approach before the date arrives. Clear the area, mark the exact dump spot with a cone or flag, and keep a phone reachable in case the driver calls to confirm placement.
Sizing a crushed stone order for a larger Sweetwater County job
For a multi-site job or a long driveway, work the quantity out per area first and add the areas together rather than guessing at a total. The crushed stone calculator takes your dimensions and returns the quantity, and the guide on how much gravel a driveway needs walks through the base and surface layers separately. Ordering the base and the surface as two lines keeps the quantities honest.
Other materials Sweetwater County crushed stone jobs use alongside it
Crushed stone rarely stands alone. These are the layers above and below it on the same job.
- Driveway Gravel for the wearing surface over a crushed stone base.
- Drainage Rock for French drains and outfalls where water leaves the stone.
- Sand for bedding and leveling under pavers and flagstone.
Crushed stone questions from Sweetwater County buyers
Does the ground vary across Sweetwater County enough to change what I order?
It can. The survey point near the centre of the county falls in a soil group that takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface, and that makes drainage and a deeper base matter more than in places where water sinks. Judge drainage at your own site rather than from a county figure. Where the ground holds water, a coarser drainage stone and a thicker base are the usual answer.
How much building is going on in Sweetwater County?
Sweetwater County permitted about 45 single-family homes in 2024, which is a county figure rather than a town one. That pace keeps steady demand on base stone, concrete aggregate and bedding materials across the county. If you are building, order the base and the surface as separate lines so neither runs short.
Does the stone come from the same source everywhere in the county?
No. Aggregate is a natural product, and color, shade, texture and sizing vary with what is locally available, so product photos are representative rather than exact. Each order is matched to a supplier in the network nearest the delivery address. Expect slight variation between loads, and between one part of the county and another.
How far out do you deliver from the main towns?
American Rock Supply delivers nationwide through a network of local suppliers, and the delivery address is entered at checkout so the order can be matched. Coverage is not limited to the towns listed on this page. Enter your ZIP at checkout to confirm the match and choose a date at least two business days out.
What delivery day looks like in Sweetwater County
A dump truck arrives on the weekday you chose and leaves the crushed stone in a pile on the spot you marked, usually on the driveway or accessible ground beside it. Unloading takes about 10 to 15 minutes, and the driver may call or text first to confirm placement. Walk the approach beforehand so the 12-foot path is clear.
