0–7/8" Crushed Limestone for Heavy Duty Bases and High-Load Driveways

For projects demanding superior structural support, our 0–7/8" Crushed Limestone steps up where standard gravel leaves off. Featuring a slightly coarser gradation than standard 0–3/4" (Granular A), this mix includes crushed angular rock up to 7/8", blended with the fines needed for tight compaction.

The Heavy-Duty Advantage

The increased stone size in this matrix provides higher shear strength, meaning it is more resistant to being pushed around by heavy tires. This makes it a strong choice for agricultural laneways, commercial parking areas, and long rural driveways that see frequent delivery truck traffic. It also helps bridge softer subsoils, creating a “raft” that distributes point loads and reduces the chance of tires sinking into clay.

Ideal Use Cases

• Farm laneways: Supports tractors and heavy machinery with less displacement over time.
• Commercial parking and access lanes: Durable base material for higher-traffic zones.
• Soft ground stabilization: The larger aggregate bites into softer ground better than finer mixes, helping firm up wet or spongy areas.

Why Choose 0–7/8" Instead of 0–3/4"?

If you are parking standard passenger cars, 0–3/4" typically provides a smoother finish. If you are parking RVs, boats, or operating heavy equipment, 0–7/8" offers the extra ruggedness that helps reduce rutting and shifting over time.
