Gray Landscape Rock: Types, Sizes & Bulk Pricing Guide
Why gray landscape rock is so popular
Gray landscaping rock is the most versatile decorative stone on the market. Neutral gray and grey-and-white tones pair with modern homes, brick, stone veneer and green plantings alike — and they hide dirt and fading far better than white or colored stone.
Types of gray landscape rock
- Gray decorative stone — clean, angular gray stone for beds, borders and ground cover.
- Crushed limestone — gray crushed stone that compacts for driveways and walkways.
- #57 stone — 3/4" gray crushed stone for drainage and base.
- Slate chips — flat, dark gray slate for a contemporary look.
- [Large river rock](/landscaping-rock/large-river-rock) — rounded gray and mixed-tone river rock for dry creeks.
What size should you choose?
| Use | Recommended size |
|---|---|
| Walkways | 3/8" – 3/4" |
| Flower beds | 3/4" – 1.5" |
| Drainage & dry creek beds | 1" – 5" |
| Driveways | Crushed #57 or base rock |
How much gray rock do you need?
One ton of gray landscape stone covers roughly 80–100 square feet at 2 inches deep. For a 10' x 20' bed (200 sq ft), plan on about 2–2.5 tons.
Bulk bags vs. by the ton vs. truckload
Grey gravel bulk bags are convenient for small jobs, but buying by the ton or full truckload is dramatically cheaper per ton for contractors and landscapers. EBX & WRT supplies gray landscape rock wholesale by the ton and truckload, and because we run our own trucks, delivery is priced in.
