    4” to 8” Quarry Rock:

    Our 4” x 8” Quarry Rock is frequently used for construction entrances and other situations, which demand a bony rock material. This is a great product for firming up a very wet or muddy site. The 4” x 8” Quarry Rock has no fine material and is sometimes called light riprap or quarry spalls. The term “spall” refers to a rock that has been broken through a mechanical process into a moderately large size.

  • Half / One Man Quarry Rock Half to One Man Quarry Rock

    Half to One Man Quarry Rock:

    Our Half Man and One-Man Quarry Rock are typically 25 lbs. to 200 lbs. angular shaped rocks with dimensions varying from 6” to 18”. A typical Half Man rock ranges in size from a large melon to a small watermelon. A One-Man rock is typically about the size of a basketball up to the size of a medium beach ball. The terms “Half Man” and “One-Man” are often the source of some confusion and it is strongly encouraged to view the rock size before ordering it sight unseen.

    2" to 4" Quarry Rock:

    Like its larger cousin (see 4" x 8") 2" x 4" Quarry Rock is frequently used for construction entrances and other situations, which demand a bony rock material.  However, the 2" x 4" Quarry Rock is smaller and easier to work with.  This product is great for firming up very wet or muddy sites.  When ordering please be specific and say 2" x 4" Quarry Rock so it isn't confused with the similarly named 2" x 4" Round Rock, a gravel product used for landscaping and streambeds.
