Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Port Angeles, WA

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Port Angeles, WA by the ton or the yard. Washington Rock Supply sells bulk rock, sand, topsoil and surfacing material online, and a dump truck tips it at your site.

Start with 5/8 minus. It is the Washington default surfacing course, and it fits the thin, stony ground and heavy rain of the Olympic Peninsula.

Materials for Port Angeles Projects

Base and driveway surfacing carries most of the work here. On the Olympic Peninsula and the Pacific coast, ground that stays saturated will not hold a base course without drainage beneath it, so plan the layers together.

5/8 Minus, also called crushed surfacing top course or CSTC, is crushed rock with the fines left in. Those fines pack hard and shed water instead of soaking it up, which suits driveways, parking pads and shed slabs.

1 1/4 Minus, or crushed surfacing base course, is the structural course under a drive, parking area or slab. It has a larger top size and fewer fines than 5/8 minus, so it carries load and stays workable on soft wet ground.

Drain Rock, also called 7/8 clean or washed rock, is washed with no fines. It keeps its voids in footing drains, French drains and infiltration trenches where water perches on till.

Washed stone drains and minus material compacts. Keep the two apart on your order.

Driveway Gravel suits long rural drives, farm and forest approaches and equipment parking, and 3/4" Crushed Stone handles trench backfill, pipe surround and under-slab drainage.

Ground and Conditions in Port Angeles

Water volume drives every decision on this side of the state. The Olympic Peninsula and the Pacific coast take 100 to 170 inches of rain a year, so the question is never whether water arrives but where it goes.

Thin, stony soil sits over uplifted marine rock on the Olympic slopes. Deep organic forest soil fills the west-side valleys, and sand, peat and tidal silt run along the outer coast and the bays.

Ground that is already saturated will not hold a base course without a drainage layer under it. Put a washed stone below the compacted course so water has somewhere to move.

The reliable dry window runs mid to late summer, with a long wet season either side of it. Western Washington's two-day soil stabilization rule applies from October 1 through April 30, and on the coast that is the practical limit on open grade.

Winter cold is not the constraint here. The ocean keeps hard freezes short, so what stops work is how wet it is, not how cold.

Frost depth is set by the county or city building department, with published western Washington figures running 12 to 18 inches.
