Order Crusher Run and Crushed Stone in Randolph County, WV
West Virginia Rock Supply handles gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Randolph County, WV. Crusher run is the base most ground here starts from, and it is what we build the rest of the order around.
This county sits on the Allegheny highlands and the Allegheny Front, where soil is thin and stony over sandstone and shale. That shapes what a drive or a pad needs underneath it.
Materials Delivered in Randolph County
Crusher run goes by crush and run at local yards, and it is crushed stone sold with the fines left in. Those fines are what let it lock up under a roller and hold a grade on a hillside drive.
West Virginia base material is specified by the WVDOH Standard Specifications for Roads and Bridges. Section 307 covers crushed aggregate base course, and the material requirement comes from Subsection 704.6, which grades base and subbase aggregate by numbered class in Table 704.6.2A.
Class 10 is footnoted there as crusher run material only.
67, No. 8 and No.
4.
Class 2 base is the finer crusher run class. It goes where a drive or pad wants a tighter surface than the coarse base gives, and it works as a top course over a Class 1 base.
Class 2 as an aggregate base class is a different thing from Class 2 riprap sizing.
Clean washed stone covers the drainage side. #67 Stone is a 3/4 inch washed stone for drainage beds and bedding where #57 is a shade too big.
#4 Crushed Stone is coarse 1-1/2 inch clean stone for trench bottoms and heavy drainage.
For finishing work, Stone Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints. River Rock and Large River Rock handle beds, borders and dry creek beds.
Ground Conditions Across Randolph County
Across the Allegheny highlands and the Allegheny Front, the working season is the shortest in West Virginia. Base, drive and paver work waits for the ground to thaw and drain in late spring, and it stops earlier in the fall than it does downstate.
Snow cover lasts for weeks at a time on the high benches. That sets the practical window for a delivery, and it is worth timing a bulk order around.
Rain and deep snowmelt land on steep, shallow soil over rock, so water cannot soak in and it runs instead. This part of the state takes more than 60 inches of precipitation a year.
Springs and seeps break out partway down a slope. Undrained, they will run straight through a base, which is where clean stone and a drainage layer earn their place.
Slides and slumps show up on slopes over about 17 degrees, in shale and siltstone residuum and in colluvium. Old timber roads, skidder trails and unreclaimed workings add to it, and mountain streams rise hard and fast and scour banks and culvert outlets.
Riprap is the answer at a culvert outlet or a scoured bank, sold by stone size and by weight class. Frost depth is set by the county building official, and no state table gives a figure for the highlands, so confirm it locally.

Choosing the Right Material
Upshur County and Barbour County sit on rolling to steep dissected hill country on shale, siltstone and sandstone. That ground differs from the thin, stony plateau soil here, and it changes what a base has to do.
Those counties carry narrow alluvial bottoms and colluvium in the hollows, with mine regolith where northern seams were worked. A base there can sit on softer, deeper ground than the rock benches here.
Pocahontas County spans more than one zone, reaching into the Allegheny highlands and the Allegheny Front as well as the Greenbrier limestone valley. On the highland side the ground is the same as Randolph County's.
That shared ground means the same reasoning holds: crusher run for the base, clean stone for drainage, and riprap where a slope is slipping.
Questions About Stone and Gravel in Randolph County
What is the difference between crushed stone and Natural Pea Gravel?
Crushed stone has angular, broken faces, and crusher run keeps the fines so it locks up and holds a grade. Natural Pea Gravel is small rounded stone, sold as 3/8 inch natural pea gravel for walkways, play areas and patio infill.
Rounded stone does not lock together the way crushed stone does.
Should I order material by the ton or by the yard?
Both work, and quantities are ordered either way. Each product page has a calculator to size the load, so you do not have to convert anything yourself.
Once the quantity is set, pick a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck tips the load on site.
Which stone is best for drainage in Randolph County?
Clean washed stone is what drainage wants, and #57 limestone is the common choice for French drains and pipe bedding. #67 stone suits drainage beds and bedding where #57 is a shade too big, and #8 limestone handles fine drainage and paver joints.
Drain rock covers foundation drains and drywells.
