Choosing #2 Crushed Stone for a closed, finished surface is a common mismatch. This material remains open because it is washed and free of fines, while its angular pieces leave room for water to pass. That quality is useful around culverts, ditch lining, and backfill work where drainage is more important than a smooth top layer.
In parts of New York with deep frost and frequent moisture, put this stone beneath larger stone as a drainage course when the installation calls for a layered base. Keeping water moving below the upper material can be especially useful where freeze and thaw affect the ground. The same large, angular stone works at construction entrances, where it can handle site traffic and help reduce mud carried toward the road. Access conditions may vary, so confirm the available local material before delivery.

Common Uses
Construction Entrances
At the roadway edge, a deep layer of angular rock helps strip mud from tires as trucks leave the site.
Culvert & Ditch Lining
Set these larger stones at culvert outlets and along ditches to help hold the lining in place where runoff gathers.
Heavy Base Layers
On soft ground, begin with this coarse layer beneath farm lanes or equipment pads, then place finer stone above it.
Drainage Courses
Open spaces between the pieces allow substantial water flow to pass through and clear the work zone.
Why Choose #2 Crushed Stone
Stays Put
Its large, heavy pieces hold their position under tire traffic and help limit ruts.
Quick Drainage
Washed stone leaves out fines, leaving open channels between the pieces for water movement.
Bridges Soft Ground
Large angular rock distributes loads over wet or weak subgrade.
Minimal Upkeep
After it is installed, it typically only needs occasional additional material.
