Manteca Sand and All-Purpose Fill Sands, Explained

Sand is one of those words that hides a dozen different products. Here is how the everyday ones differ.

All-purpose and fill sand

Versatile local sand for general fill, grading and site work. It is the everyday workhorse when you just need clean sand by the ton.

Bedding and leveling sand

Finer and cleaner, screeded thin under pavers, flagstone and blocks to set them flat. A setting layer, not structure.

Crushed sand

Manufactured by crushing rock to a fine gradation. The angular grains lock together and compact tightly, which makes it great for bedding and mixes.
