About The Estes Co.

Estes is a national name across multiple industries.

While the Clifford W. Estes Company may not be the largest or most recognizable “Estes Company” around, it is the oldest.  And we plan to outlive all others.  We provide the highest quality products at great value in an industry as old as dirt.

We sell sand and gravel.  It’s not glamorous.  Yet Estes products power solutions across a wide range of applications.  We pride ourselves in being the best possible partners to several industries.

Through that, we know our products solve problems for everyday consumers.

"True to color and after rinsing holds the color too.  Looks great in the aquarium.  Definitely recommend!"

"I actually got this gravel for my succulents for extra drainage in the soil.  Not only are they beautiful rocks, but they are affordable.  It seems any kind of gravel or rocks for plants is double the price.  I love the way this gravel looks in my plants and I would definitely buy it again."

"Better than I even expected. Combination of stones are beautiful.  Perfect for my zen garden theme and super natural looking.  When I added to my tank, I had no cloudiness.  Totally recommend."

"Purchased the large hoping it would be an interesting piece with some character.  I was pleasantly surprised when the package arrived, both pieces were much more interesting than the one pictured.  I will post a picture of my two pieces later.  Very pleased with this order!  The ZooMed wood I've seen in stores and received from online were boring compared to these."
