Description
Recycled Concrete and Crusher Run are both excellent choices for creating a strong, stable base for driveways and other residential projects. We normally get whichever is cheapest at the time of a project. While they serve similar purposes, they have some differences:
Recycled Concrete: Made from old concrete structures that have been crushed and screened, Recycled Concrete is an eco-friendly alternative to natural rock. It provides a solid foundation and is often used as a base layer for driveways and other surfaces.
Crusher Run: This gravel consists of crushed rock and fine materials, compacting well to create a sturdy surface. It’s ideal for driveways, providing a smooth finish and excellent durability.

Fill Dirt and Topsoil are both used in landscaping but serve slightly different purposes, though they can achieve similar results:
Fill Dirt: This is subsoil with minimal organic matter, making it ideal for filling large depressions and leveling ground. It’s primarily used to create the basic structure and shape of your landscape.
Topsoil: Rich in organic material, Topsoil is used on the surface to provide nutrients for gardening and lawn preparation. It’s darker and finer, making it perfect for supporting plant growth.
