#67 Stone Delivery in Huntsville, Texas

#67 Stone Delivery in Huntsville, Texas

Huntsville, Texas calls for #67 Stone delivery when contractors and homeowners need a durable, load-bearing base that handles the region's clay-heavy ground and frequent moisture. This angular gray crushed stone, sized at three quarter to one inch, locks into place instead of shifting, making it the preferred choice for driveway bases, French drains and retaining wall backfill throughout the area. Unlike rounded gravel, the sharp faces of this stone interlock under compaction, which means your driveway, pad or trench stays put instead of settling or moving over time.

Huntsville's soil tends toward clay and heavy moisture, which is exactly the problem this angular, fast-draining stone is built to solve. The region has relatively flat terrain with water retention in heavier soil types. Once compacted, #67 stone stays put through the local climate without breaking down or settling unevenly. This makes it ideal for residential driveways, commercial bases, and the foundation work that Huntsville contractors rely on daily.

Common Uses for #67 Stone in Huntsville

Contractors in Huntsville rely on this material for load-bearing and drainage applications across residential and commercial sites:

• Driveway bases and paver foundations
• French drains and footing drainage
• Retaining wall backfill and utility trench fill
• Concrete slab bases and equipment pads
• Slope stabilization and drainage swales

Huntsville's soil tends toward clay and heavy moisture, which is exactly the problem this angular, fast-draining stone is built to solve. Once compacted, it stays put through the local climate without breaking down or settling unevenly. Homeowners often use this material for improving drainage around foundations, leveling low spots in yards, and building stable bases under sheds and patios. Commercial contractors use it for larger projects and rely on the tiered pricing to keep material costs reasonable.

Calculating Your Tonnage

This material is sold by the ton. Start by measuring your area in feet and depth in inches. Multiply length by width by depth, then divide by 324 to convert to cubic yards. This stone weighs about 2,650 pounds per cubic yard, so multiply that figure by 2,650 and divide by 2,000 to get tons. A typical driveway base of 20 by 40 feet at 4 inches deep comes to roughly 13 tons. Confirm your number with the calculator before placing your order.

For smaller projects like a single drainage trench or shed pad, you might need only 3 to 5 tons. Larger driveway replacements or commercial work can easily reach 15 tons or more. The tiered pricing rewards bigger orders, so if you have multiple projects planned, combining them can save money on per-ton rates.

Delivery Timeline and Service in Huntsville

Order 3 tons or more and expect delivery within 1 to 2 business days. Step up to 8 tons or more and you move to same or next day service. Orders at 15 tons or more qualify for free delivery, making larger projects significantly more cost-effective. Huntsville's central location in the region means delivery is reliable and scheduling is flexible.

Have a clear access point ready for the delivery truck, whether that is a driveway, alley or side yard. Mark exactly where the stone should be placed so the driver can position the load correctly on the first pass. This prevents repositioning later, which can be difficult in tight spaces. The driver will need clearance for a large truck, so check for low wires, branches or overhead obstacles before the scheduled delivery window.

Pricing by Tonnage Tier

Your delivered price adjusts based on order size, with the per-ton rate dropping as your order grows:

About #67 Stone

#67 Stone is an angular, gray crushed aggregate sized at three quarter to one inch, designed to lock into place under compaction. This is essential for handling Huntsville's clay-heavy soils and moisture conditions. Unlike rounded gravel, the sharp faces interlock, which is why it serves as the standard choice for driveway bases, French drains, retaining wall backfill and load-bearing layers that need to stay stable under weight. A single cubic yard of this stone weighs roughly 2,650 pounds. Since it is sold by the ton rather than the yard, you must convert your volume measurements to tonnage.

It drains fast, resists breaking down into mud the way some softer materials do over time, and stays put under repeated freeze-thaw cycles or heavy moisture. Contractors throughout the Huntsville area use it under concrete slabs, sidewalks, sheds and utility trenches, as well as for erosion control on slopes and drainage swales. Homeowners depend on the same material for smaller projects such as leveling a low spot, building a base under a shed, or improving drainage around a foundation.

You must compact this angular stone in layers rather than dumping it in one go. This keeps the base stable and prevents the shifting that can occur when weight is added over time.
