How much you need and for what application?



its small so a full yard load by truck is way too much

i just need enough to cover a walking path 1 1/2" deep and 3ft wide by 40 ft long

so im thinking about maybe ten 5 gallon buckets worth

that's about half a yard which is just over a ton. So you’re looking at 2-3 pickup truck loads.

btw, you probably want to go thicker than 1.5". that's not much at all.

For reference, 10 filled to the top 5 gallon buckets (which would break anyway) would get you about 1/3 of the way down your path.

You need about 3/4 yard. Reliable Soils in st rose has it. You can probably
Pick up a small 3/4 yard there if you have a trailer to take it on. Probably should just get a yard and just use it.

You will want #8 limestone
