Frequently Asked Questions

How is your stone packaged?

Our flagstone and snapped stone is stacked and shipped on pallets weighing 3,500 – 4,500 lbs. Patio grade flagstone is stacked flat on pallets while select grade flagstone is stacked on special upright pallets.

Our thin veneer is packaged in wood  crates containing 150 square feet of flats or 100 lineal feet of corners. These crates weigh from 1,600-1,900 lbs.  Handipacks containing smaller amounts of flats and corners will be available in 2009.  

How many pallets or crates can I get on a truck?

On average most trucks can haul around 46,000-48,000 lbs. That means you can get around 12-15 pallets of flagstone or up to 32 crates of thin veneer on a truck.

How much does your stone cost?

Palletized stone is most often sold and priced by the ton. Thin veneer and other special cuts may be priced by the square foot. We are also required to charge Arizona state mining tax (3.593%) on all flagstone, snapped stone and other quarry products mined in the Moenkopi Arizona quarry. There is no mining tax on thin veneer. We do our best to keep our prices competitive however they are subject to change at any time.  Please contact us for a current price sheet.
