🪨 What is Crusher Run? 

Crusher run is a type of gravel mix commonly used in construction and landscaping. It’s made from crushed stone and stone dust, compacted together. This mixture creates a solid, stable base—perfect for driveways, roads, and foundations.

 

🔧 What’s in Crusher Run?

• Crushed stone (usually limestone, granite, or trap rock)

• Stone dust (fine particles that fill the gaps between stones)

Together, these materials bind tightly when compacted, forming a tough surface.
