Confusing a clean chip stone with a compacted road material is a common mistake. #78 Crushed Stone is washed and has limited fine material, so its angular chips retain openings instead of forming a closed surface. That character fits drainage layers, pipe bedding, permeable pavers, and walkway or patio work more than ranch-road surfacing.
Gumbo clay, alkali ground, and fast spring melt can leave Wyoming sites handling sudden moisture after frozen conditions. For a paver area, set this material as bedding over the prepared supporting base, where its open texture can support the drainage function of the installation. Around a drain line, use it as the bedding stone after the route is established. Keep the material in the part of the work intended to remain open, especially where meltwater needs to move away from finished paving or landscape features.

Common Uses
Permeable Paver Setting
Place it beneath and between permeable pavers to keep the surface open for water to filter down.
Drainage Course
Use these clean chips where water needs an open route, including below walkways and alongside foundations or retaining walls.
Pipe Bedding
For drain or utility pipe, these small angular stones pack around the line to give it consistent support and reduce gaps.
Walkway & Patio Base
Set it below a path, patio or shed pad for a solid layer that compacts well and lets water move through.
Why Choose #78 Crushed Stone
Open Drainage
With little to no fines, washed chips leave room for water to flow through.
Interlocking Shape
Angular pieces nest together more firmly than rounded gravel, helping hold the layer in position.
Hand Placement
A rake or screed makes it straightforward to level these small chips on close-quarters residential work.
One Stone, Many Jobs
A single material can handle the drainage, pipe bedding, and base portions of a project.
