New Jersey Crushed Stone Delivery, Priced by the Ton
New Jersey crushed stone delivers by the ton to dense suburbs and rural counties alike, priced by ZIP code.
New Jersey packs a lot of ground into a small state, so a crushed stone delivery route through a dense county like Bergen County looks nothing like a route through a rural county like Sussex County, even though both price by the ton and both start from the same ZIP based checkout. New Jersey crushed stone moves for driveways, drainage and base work statewide, with a delivered price set by the exact address entered rather than a single number for the whole state.
How to Order Crushed Stone in New Jersey
- Use the project's length, width and target depth in the crushed stone calculator to get an estimated tonnage.
- Enter a New Jersey ZIP code to pull the delivered price for that address.
- Select a delivery window that fits the site and the time of year.
- Confirm the exact spot on the property where the load should be tipped.
The Crushed Stone hub lists every size and sub grade side by side so the right product gets chosen before checkout.
Popular Uses for Crushed Stone in New Jersey
Crushed stone across the state generally goes toward one of a few jobs:
- Driveways: crusher run compacts into a dense, stable base that holds up under regular vehicle traffic.
- Drainage: open graded stone such as #57 crushed stone carries water away from foundations, window wells and French drains.
- Base and fill: a compacted layer under a shed, patio or paver walkway keeps the surface from settling unevenly.
- Erosion control: heavier stone holds slopes and stream banks in place through storm runoff.
Many contractors combine a coarse base course with a finer #89 crushed stone for the finished top layer.
Local Sourcing and How It Affects Price in New Jersey
Crushed stone is heavy for its cost, so the distance between the source and the delivery address drives most of the variation in price across the state. A dense county like Bergen County sits close to several routes, which can help keep haul distances short despite tight streets and driveways. A more rural county like Sussex County may see a longer haul from the nearest active source, which shows up as a higher delivered cost even though the material itself is the same product. Larger orders generally bring a better per ton rate than small single loads for the same reason a bigger trip spreads its cost further.
The specific stone size ordered can shift sourcing too. Common driveway and fill grades are widely stocked, so pricing on those stays fairly consistent across the state. A specialty size or sub grade may travel farther from wherever it is processed, which can add a bit to the delivered total even for an address that otherwise sits close to several routes.
Crushed Stone Delivery Across New Jersey
Delivery covers the dense northern counties near the New York suburbs, the central corridor along the state's major highway belts, and the shore and southern counties down toward the Delaware Bay. A stop in a compact, built up area often means tighter street access and a smaller truck, while a rural stop has more room to maneuver but can sit farther from the nearest route. Lead time depends on which of these regions a load is headed into, and checkout shows the current window for the ZIP code entered.
Because the state is compact compared with most of the country, most addresses fall within a normal service radius no matter which region they sit in. A driver will still note any tight turns, low wires or narrow gates before a route is set, since those details matter as much as raw distance when a full size truck needs to reach a driveway or backyard access point.

FAQ: Crushed Stone in New Jersey
How much does crushed stone cost for a New Jersey driveway?
Price is set by the ton and depends on the delivery address, since haul distance is the main factor behind the total. Entering a ZIP code at checkout returns the delivered price for that specific location rather than one flat statewide number. Combining a driveway order with drainage or base stone in the same trip typically brings the per ton rate down.
What size crushed stone works for a New Jersey driveway?
Crusher run is the standard base material because its mixed sizes compact into a firm, low maintenance surface. A coarser layer usually goes down first for structure, with a finer grade such as #89 crushed stone added on top for a cleaner finished look. The right depth depends on the soil and how much traffic the driveway sees.
Does delivery reach both dense towns and rural parts of New Jersey?
Yes, routes cover the dense northern counties, the central highway corridor and the more rural shore and southern counties. Tighter streets in built up areas can call for a smaller truck, while rural addresses sit farther from the nearest route. Checkout shows the delivery window and any access notes for the ZIP code entered.
How many tons of crushed stone do I need for my project?
Tons needed depend on the square footage covered and the depth of the layer, since crushed stone is sold by weight. The crushed stone calculator turns a project's length, width and target depth into an estimated tonnage automatically. Rounding the estimate up slightly is common practice so the delivery does not come up short.
What is the difference between #57 crushed stone and crusher run?
Number 57 crushed stone is a more uniform, open graded size with space between the pieces, so water drains through it quickly, which makes it common for drainage lines. Crusher run blends stone across a range of sizes down to fine particles, letting it compact into a firm, stable surface, which is why it is the standard choice for driveways and base work.
Can I order crushed stone for a small backyard project, not a full driveway?
Yes, orders scale from a small quantity for one bed, walkway or drainage fix up to full truckloads for larger jobs, and both use the same ZIP based pricing at checkout. A homeowner fixing one drainage spot and a contractor building a driveway both enter a project size and get a delivered price for that amount.
