#67 Stone Delivery in Bakersfield, CA

About #67 Stone

#67 Stone is a crushed stone material sized at 1/2 - 3/4 inch with a density around 2650 lbs per cubic yard. The color runs gray. Angular crushed aggregate that locks together under load and drains predictably. The most-used base material in the US for driveways, French drains, base courses, and pipe bedding. Available at every quarry in our network.

Bulk orders are sold by the ton, with full-truck deliveries (16 or more tons) saving 15 to 20 percent off partial-load rates. Tandem-axle trucks haul 10 to 16 tons per load and fit residential streets; tri-axle trucks haul 16 to 24 tons and work better for contractor pours and commercial sites. We deliver same-day in most metros for orders placed before 11 AM, with a two-hour arrival window confirmed the evening before.

Pricing depends on quarry proximity, truckload size, the current diesel rate, and seasonal demand. The cheapest path is always a full truck dropped at a single address. If your project needs more than one load, splitting deliveries across two days costs less than two separate partial loads on the same day. Send your ZIP and dimensions through the contact form for a same-hour quote that includes the delivered total and the lead time on the lane.

After delivery, plan a few hours on the day of the drop to spread or stage the material. A wheelbarrow moves about 2 cubic feet at a time, which makes longer driveways or larger beds a multi-day job by hand. A skid-steer covers ten times that pace and rents for around $200 per day in most markets, often with same-day pickup. If you cannot start work right away, tarping the pile keeps the #67 stone dry and intact for up to a week without losing weight or color.

How crews use #67 Stone in Bakersfield

Bakersfield contractors keep #67 stone on the order sheet for a short list of standard installs. Top of the list is driveway gravel, where the material is rolled out in tight urban lots and infill builds and screeded to grade. Right behind that is patio gravel, common in dense neighborhoods where curb access is short and often paired with edging or fabric below the lift. Bakersfield sits at about 403,455 residents, which means we see steady weekday traffic from landscape crews and weekend pickups from owner-builders.

Delivery day in Bakersfield

Delivery in Bakersfield runs out of the nearest pit; you get a two hour arrival window the evening prior and a call when the driver leaves the scale. Plan for 12 ft of clear path for a tandem and 14 ft for a tri-axle, plus a level area at the dump point so the bed lifts straight. Standard lead time on this lane is Mon-Sat, with same-day windows held open for orders that hit the desk before 11 AM and clear payment.
