Stone Dust

There are many reasons that homeowners and contractors may choose this over other alternatives as a final base layer. Its qualities make placing the last base easier to grade and work with. When the stone screenings have been compacted and graded, movement worries are lessened. This allows you to walk directly on the surface before laying your stones, bricks, or pavers without worry.

Stone dust offers unique uses due to its qualities. It was discovered that when used in coal mines, it helped prevent explosions because of its ability to absorb heat. Stone dust mixed with compost produces exceptionally fertile soil that yields an excellent crop. Urban Dock and Rail has stone screenings available for both pickup and delivery for your projects.

This material is the byproduct of crushing stone. Although initially a waste product, it is now used for agricultural and landscaping purposes. Most commonly, it is used for paving projects such as driveways, patios, and pathways.

Stone Dust is one of the aggregates supplied at Urban Dock and Rail in Staten Island. Because of our easy access through major highways, we are the leading construction demolition recycling center in the Tri-State area, servicing Brooklyn, New York City, and part of New Jersey.
