River Sand
Clean, washed river sand — screened for pool bases, pipe bedding, and safe play areas.
About This Material
Our river sand is dredged from Louisiana river beds, washed, and screened to remove silt and organics. The rounded grain shape packs evenly without cutting liners or PVC — that's why pool installers and plumbers keep it on repeat order. It also drains well, so it stays workable even when the site is wet.
Sold by the cubic yard and delivered on our quad-axle dump trucks. Two-yard minimum. Same-day delivery on orders placed before 10 AM.
Why Choose River Sand?
