Delivery to Whitestone and the Surrounding Area

Order online and choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard. Use the calculator to size the load, then pick a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck brings the material to your site.

We deliver across Whitestone and Queens County, including Flushing, Jamaica, Astoria, Bayside and Queens Village. Bulk loads go straight to the driveway, the side yard or the work area.

Think about where the truck can reach before you order. A full load needs room to spread and a clear path in.

Materials for Whitestone Projects

Most yards here start with the decorative work. Beds, borders and dry creek beds carry the look of a property, and the right stone holds that look through winter.

For dry creek beds, use River Rock or Large River Rock. Both move runoff while they read as a design feature. Line the bed with a drainage stone first, then cap it with the rounded rock.

For bed edges and ground cover, 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel sits well around plantings and along paths. It drains fast, which matters on sandy ground. Shredded Mulch covers the beds themselves and holds moisture through the summer.

Every landscape job sits on a base. That base is Item 4, the New York name for compacting subbase stone. It goes under driveways, parking pads, patio and shed bases. Compact it in lifts and it locks up hard.

Then build up from there:

• Stone Dust for paver, flagstone and patio bedding, and fine paths.
• Driveway Gravel to surface an existing drive or top a compacted Item 4 base.
• Top Soil and Garden Soil for lawns, beds and raised plantings.

What to order for the job

Ground and Conditions in Whitestone

Whitestone sits in the New York City and Long Island ground zone. Most of Queens is sand and gravel left by glacial moraines and outwash plains. That sandy soil takes in rainwater quickly, so a thin base dries out and shifts.

Nor'easters and tropical storms bring heavy rain, high tides and storm surge that flood low-lying shore areas. Waves and tides wear at the Sound bluffs during those storms. That is why drainage stone earns its place here.

Winters are milder than upstate because of the ocean, but the ground still freezes and thaws. Frost depth runs at least 4 feet for footings under the New York City Building Code, and Long Island building departments set their own depth. That freeze and thaw loosens gravel surfaces and shifts pavers laid on a thin base.

Build the base deep enough and compact it in lifts. The milder coastal climate leaves more of the year open for base and paver work, but frozen or waterlogged ground still stops compaction during cold snaps and after big storms.
