We have the real stuff….not the fake stuff some of our competitors sell.
Our 3/8″ Pea Gravel is washed, round, smooth, forever lasting “pea” sized rock and sold by the cubic yard. Some of our competitors sell what they call pea gravel but it is very small 1/4″ crushed rock (with sharp edges) or Pea Gravel that has not been washed so it contains fines and sandy dirt mixed in. Pea Gravel does not compact or “set up”.
3/8″ Pea Gravel is commonly used for drainage applications, pipe beading, Red-i-Mix concrete and lastly, for under swingsets to provide cushion for falling little butts!
For under playsets or swingsets, it is recommended to apply 3/8″ Pea Gravel at least 6″ deep. Some sites recommend up to 9″ deep. FYI, 1 yard covers 54 square feet 6″ deep.

Delivered Amounts Information
So that you don’t fill out a check based on the amount of the quote that you received, please be aware that delivered amounts may vary +/- .75 yards according to how much is actually loaded into the dump truck. When you receive the bill from the driver, the bill will reflect the actual (and exact) amount of yards that have been loaded into the dump truck. This actual amount may vary from what you originally ordered by +/- .75 yards.
For example, you order 6 yards of 5/8″ Minus Crushed Rock to be delivered from Joe’s Landscaping Supplies. When we load it into the dump truck, the truck may end up with slighlty more or less than 6 yards due to the large size of our loader bucket and the difficulty to measure exact amounts when the bucket scoops up the material. Once it is loaded into the truck, we drive the truck onto a big scale that weighs it. We subtract the truck weight from the total weight to determine the exact weight of the material that has been loaded.
We know that most rock and concrete materials are approximately 1.3 tons per yard. So if you order 6 yards, you may get exactly 6 yards or 6.4 yards or even 5.8 yards. It just depends on the scale weight. We don’t don’t charge you any more or any less than what has been loaded in the truck so you can be assured that you are getting exactly what you are paying for! Which we can’t say our competitors all do. We are very honest and precise and will adjust your invoice to reflect the actual amount you received and you pay for only that amount!
The driver will inform you of the invoice total when he/she arrives at your address. If we load the truck far enough in advance of when we deliver it to you, we may call or email you with the exact total so you can have payment ready.
