About #89 Crushed Stone

#89 crushed stone is an angular aggregate made from limestone or granite, sized at 3/8 inch. The gray color and uniform particle size make it a top choice for structural and decorative applications. Its angular shape locks pieces together when compacted, creating stability in base layers and preventing shifting under weight. Unlike rounder pea gravel, #89 stone does not settle or migrate sideways, which is why contractors prefer it for driveways, parking lots, and foundations. The 3/8 inch size is coarse enough to drain well and fine enough to spread evenly. It is sold by the ton, with each ton covering roughly 100 to 150 square feet at a 2-inch depth depending on how tightly it is compacted. The material is inert and long-lasting, requiring occasional raking to level and refresh the surface as traffic or weather compacts the top layer.

How crews use #89 Crushed Stone in Peoria

Peoria contractors keep #89 crushed stone on the order sheet for a short list of standard installs. Top of the list is patio gravel, where the material is rolled out on rural drives and acreage projects and screeded to grade. Right behind that is walkway gravel, common across longer driveways and outbuilding work and often paired with edging or fabric below the lift. Local Peoria orders cluster around the partial-truck range, with full loads booked for paving prep and base courses.

Delivery day in Peoria

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 24-48h, with same-day windows held open for orders that hit the desk before 11 AM and clear payment.
