Questions we get every day.
Straight answers from the people who cut the rock. Don't see yours? Call (785) 262-9064.
How much stone comes on a truck?
A standard load is about 24 tons on a flatbed or step-deck. We arrange the freight, the driver calls ahead, and you get about 1.5 hours of unload time. Individual blocks run roughly 800–2,000 lbs.
What equipment do I need to unload?
A skid steer with forks or an excavator with a thumb handles it. No dock needed — our stone unloads on any firm, level ground. Not sure your machine is enough? Call us with the model and we'll tell you straight.
How far do you deliver?
Anywhere in the lower 48 and Canada. We quote freight to your zip code up front, so the delivered price is the real price — no surprises when the truck shows up.
How strong is your limestone?
Independently lab tested: 12,820 PSI average compressive strength and just 0.3% absorption. That's dense, hard Flint Hills limestone that shrugs off freeze-thaw — not soft quarry cast-offs.
How much wall does a ton build?
For 14" ledge stone, about 7 square feet of wall face per ton (6.5 for Builders Grade). A 24-ton load builds roughly 170 square feet of face — for example a wall 3 feet tall and 55 feet long. We do the tonnage math with you.
What's the difference between milled and sawn ends?
Milled means the top and bottom beds are machined flat so every course is the same height. Sawn ends adds square-cut ends for tight vertical joints and crisp corners, at a higher per-ton price. The face — what shows in the wall — is never milled or sawn on either.
How fast can I get an estimate?
Free estimates by the next business day — usually faster. Call (785) 262-9064 or use the form and we'll price your stone and freight together.
Do you sell by the pallet or by the ton?
Wall stone, slabs and rip rap are sold by the ton and shipped by the truckload (about 24 tons). Steps are sold by the piece. Small orders can be picked up at the quarry in Wamego or the processing yard near Kansas City.
Do you install?
We're the quarry — we supply and deliver. But we work with contractors nationwide every day and we're glad to talk through what your builder needs, from wall stone tonnage math to unload logistics.
Can I track my order?
Yes. Every customer gets a portal login that shows each load from our quarry gate to your site — status, tonnage and delivery scheduling in one place.
