Ecology Blocks
Ecology Blocks are concrete building blocks that come in an array of sizes and designs. They are the perfect material for building structurally sound retaining walls. Ecology blocks have raised “bumps” on the top of the block and a matching indented groove along the bottom of the block. This allows the blocks to “fit” together in a manner which minimize the possibility of slipping.
CRI’s ecology blocks are available for delivery or pick up from our Sumner and Federal Way plant. Please call ahead to check availability for this product.

Great for drainage projects, sub grade under concrete, some walkways and patios, small dog kennels, or under swings sets and in other kids play areas.

1 1/4" Clean Crushed
Great for walking paths. Used as a capillary break layer under concrete slabs.
1 1/4" Crushed

1 1/2" Washed
Primarily used for drainage projects and decorative rock in landscaping.
2" to 4" Quarry Rock
This rock is excellent for spreading into muddy bogs on roads and driveways. Good for roadways into and out of job site; as the truck leaves the jobsites the rock will scrape clean the tire treads so that less mud will be tracked onto the road.
4" to 8" Quarry Rock
This rock can be used for building small flower bed walls. Also used for industrial roadways. Like 2” to 4” rock, good for roadways into and out of job site.
Rockery Rock

Sand and Gravel Mix
This is sand and gravel that has been premixed to be used in concrete. Perfect for small home DYI projects that utilize smaller amounts of concrete, such as fence postholes.
